1993 CADILLAC ELDORADO child seat

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine A CAUTION:
Ne. -do tl . .
Here two children arc learing 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
used
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.

A CAUTION:
Never do this.
I
IC
Here a child is sitting in a seat that has a lap-shoulder belt, but
the shoulder part
is behind the child. If the child wears the belt
in this
way, in a crash the child might slide under the belt. The
belt’s force would then be applied right on the child’s abdomen.
That could cause serious or fatal injuries.
Wherever the child sits, the lap portion of the belt should be worn low
and snug on the hips, just touching the child’s thighs. This applies belt
force to the child’s pelvic bones in
a crash.
