Protecting Children

Physical Size
Physically, a child must be large
enough for the lap/shoulder belt to

properly fit over the hips, chest, and

shoulder (see pages

15

and

39

). If

the seat belt does not fit properly,
the child should not sit in the front.

Maturity

To safely ride in front, a child must

be able to follow the rules, including

sitting properly and wearing the seat

belt properly throughout a ride.

If you decide that a child can safely

ride up front, be sure to:

Carefully read the owner's manual
and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety

information.

Move the vehicle seat to the rear-

most position.

Have the child sit up straight, back

against the seat, and feet on or
near the floor.

Check that the child's seat belt is

properly positioned and secured.

Supervise the child. Even mature
children sometimes need to be
reminded to fasten the seat belts

or sit properly.
