Safety of Larger Children
The following pages give instructions on how  to check proper seat belt fit, what kind 
of booster seat to use if one is needed,  and important precautions for a child who 
must sit in front.
When a child is too big for a  child seat, secure the child in a rear seat using the lap/
shoulder seat belt. Have the child sit upri ght and all the way back, then answer the 
following questions.
■Checklist
• Do the child’s knees bend comfortably over 
the edge of the seat?
• Does the shoulder belt cross between the 
child’s neck and arm?
• Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as 
possible, touching the child’s thighs?
• Will the child be able to stay seated like this 
for the whole trip?
If you answer yes to all these questions, th e child is ready to wear the lap/shoulder 
seat belt correctly. If you answer no to  any question, the child needs to ride on a 
booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat.

1 Safety of Larger Children
3WARNING
Allowing a child age 12 or under to sit in 
front can result in injury or death if the 
passenger’s front airbag inflates.
If a larger child must ri de in front, move the 
vehicle seat as far to the rear as possible, 
have the child sit up properly and wear the 
seat belt properly, us ing a booster seat if 
needed.

Safe DrivingIf a lap/shoulder seat belt cannot be used 
properly, position the chil d in a booster seat in 
a rear seating position.  For the child’s safety, 
check that the child m eets the booster seat 
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Your vehicle has a rear seat  where children can be properly restrained. If you ever 
have to carry a group of children, and a child must ride in front:
• Make sure you read and fully understand  the instructions and safety information 
in this manual.
• Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible.
• Have the child sit upright and well back in the seat.
• Check that the seat belt is properly positi oned so that the child is secure in the 
seat.
■Monitoring child passengers
We strongly recommend that you keep an eye  on child passengers. Even older, more 
mature children sometimes need to be remind ed to fasten their seat belts and sit up 
properly.
■Booster Seats1 Booster Seats
When installing a booster seat, make sure to read the 
instructions that came with it, and install the seat 
accordingly.
There are high- and low-type  booster seats. Choose a 
booster seat that allows the child to wear the seat 
belt correctly.
Some U.S. states, and Canadian provinces and 
territories require  children to use a booster seat until 
they reach a given age or  weight (e.g. 6 years or 60 
lbs). Be sure to check current laws in the state or 
province, or territory where you intend to drive.
