SPECIAL WARNINGS ON USE OF SAFETY RESTRAINTS FOR CHILDREN:
A child, regardless of age, should always be restrained when travelling in a
vehicle. The following precautions are strongly recommended.
Do not allow children to travel in the vehicle without restraint. Approved child
seats or harnesses should always be used.
Each seat belt assembly must be used by only one occupant. It is dangerous to put
a seat belt around a child being carried on the occupants lap.
Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle
CHILDREN AND THE USE OF CHILD SAFETY SEATS
An infant or child that is not properly restrained can be seriously injured or killed
in a crash. Seat belts are designed for adults and larger children; infants and
smaller children must be restrained in an approved child safety seat.
All child restraint systems are designed to be secured by lap belts, or the lap belt
portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Children could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle. If you choose to use a
child safety seat, follow the manufacturers instructions. Never hold a baby or
child on your lap while riding in the car.
For use in USA, the child safety seat must be in conformity with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213. Look for the statement on the box and seat.
Check the seat manufacturers instructions for proper use and installation - use
the correct size seat and properly secure the seat in the car in accordance with
the manufacturers instructions. Be sure to read and follow the 'Installation and
Use Instructions' provided with the child seat.
Remember that children who have outgrown child restraints should wear the
vehicle's seat belt.
