You’ll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See the earlier secrlon aDout the top
strap if the child restraint has one.
1. Put the restraint on the seat. Follow the instructions for the child ~-
restraint.
2. Secure the child in the child restraint as the instructions say.
3. Pull out the vehicle’s safety belt and run the lap part through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions will show you
how.
See if the shoulder belt would
go in front of the child’s face or neck. If
so, put it behind the child restraint.

To tighten the
belt, feed the lap
belt back into the
retractor while
you push down on
the child restraint.
Push and pull the
child restraint in
different
directions to be
sure it is secure.
To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle's safety belt and
- let it go back all the way.
The safety belt will move freely again and be ready to work for an adult
or larger child passenger.

L.
Children who have outgrown child restraints should wear the vehicle’s
safety belts.
If you have the choice, a child should sit next to a window so the child can
wear
a lap-shoulder belt and get the additional restraint a shoulder belt
can provide. -
Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in
the rear seat. But they need to use the safety belts properly.

do this.
P l-
Here two children are wearing the same belt. The belt can’t
properly spread the impact forces. In a crash, the
two children
can be crushed together and seriously injured.
A belt must be I
~ ur -i by only one person at a time.

Q: What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt, but the child is so
small that the shoulder belt is very close to the child’s face or neck?
A: Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but be sure that the
shoulder belt still is
on the child’s shoulder, so that in a crash the
child’s upper body would have the restraint that belts provide.
If the
child
is so small that the shoulder belt is still very close to the child’s
face or neck, you might want to place
the child in the center seat
position, the one that has only a lap belt.
