Larger Children
Children who have outgrown child
restraints should wear the vehicle’s
safety belts.
If you have the choice, a child should si1
next
to a window so the child can wear
a lap-shodder belt
and get the
additional restraint
a shoulder belt can
provide.
Accident statistics
show that children
are safer
if they are restrained in the
rem seat. But they
need to use the
safety belts properly.
Children who aren’t buckled up can
be
thrown out in a crash. children

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Q: What if ,ab child .$, . . :. ..: is wearing a lap- ’ shouldet belt, tjdi the is s& I -,
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. See
Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides
in the Index.
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.
