2009 HONDA CR-V child seat

This could result
in serious neck injuries during a
crash.
This could
cause very serious injuries during
a crash. It also increases the
chance that the child will slide
under the belt in a crash and be
injured.
If they do, they
could be very seriously injured in a
crash. Devices intended to
improve a child’s comf ort or
reposition the shoulder part of a
seat belt can make the belt less
ef f ective and increase the chance
of serious injury in a crash.

across t he neck.
Do not let a child put the shoulderpart of a seat belt behind t he backor under t he arm.
T wo children should never use thesame seat belt . Do not put any accessories on a
seat belt.
