cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.

in the event of a collision or sudden brak-
ing, the seatbacks should always be in the
almost upright position while the vehicle

sure the seat is adjusted by an
adult or with adult supervision for cor-
rect and safe operation.

tween your back and the seatback while
