Securing a booster cushion

Position the child correctly on the booster cushion

and fasten the seat belt

WARNING

A child seat should never be used in the

front passenger seat of any vehicle with a

front passenger airbag – not even if the

Passenger airbag off

symbol near the

rear-view mirror is illuminated (on vehicles

equipped with Occupant Weight Sensor). If

the severity of an accident were to cause the

airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious

injury or death to a child seated in this posi-

tion.

Booster cushions are recommended for chil-
dren who have outgrown convertible seats.
1. Place the booster cushion in the rear seat

of the vehicle.

2. With the child properly seated on the

booster cushion, attach the seat belt to or
around the cushion according to the man-
ufacturer's instructions.

3. Fasten the seat belt by inserting the latch

plate into the buckle (lock) until a distinct
click is audible.

4. Ensure that the seat belt is pulled taut and

fits snugly around the child.

WARNING

The hip section of the three-point seat

belt must fit snugly across the child's

hips, not across the stomach.

The shoulder section of the three-point

seat belt should be positioned across

the chest and shoulder.

The shoulder belt must never be placed

behind the child's back or under the

arm.
