tion during a severe fr
ontal collision, your

WA R N I N G To help reduce the risk of injury or death in an accident, se
at belts and child
restraint systems must always be used. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-13 for additional information. Never use one seat belt
for more than one
person.  Never carry more peop
le in you
r vehicle

t of an accident or

d and under should
always ride in the re
ar seat and be prop-
erly restrained. This reduces their risk ofserious injury or de
ath in an accident,

“Child restraint sys-
tems” on page 4-

information. Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat belt
must be properly
restrained in an appropriate childrestraint system. Infants MUST be plac
ed in a rear-facing
