1996 CHEVROLET BLAZER child seat

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine ;his.
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 used by
only one person at a time.
&: 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 sitting
in a rear outside position of a
four-door model, see “Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides”
in the Index. 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine A CAUTION:
Never do this.
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.
