you push down
on the child restraint.
7. 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.
Larger Children
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in the
rear seat. But they need
to use the safety belts properly.
Children who aren’t buckled up can be thrown out in a crash.
0 Children who aren’t buckled up can strike other people who are.
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 a seat that has a lap
belt,
if your vehicle has one.
