Safety features of your vehicle
Using a child restraint system
For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat is
required. This child seat or infant
seat should be of appropriate size for
the child and should be installed in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
WARNING - Holding
children
Never hold a child in your arms
or lap when riding in a vehicle.
The violent forces created during
a crash will tear the child from
your arms and throw the child
against the vehicle’s interior
causing serious injury or death.
Always use a child restraint
system which is appropriate for
your child's height and weight.
WARNING - Unattended
Children
Never leave children unattend-
ed in a vehicle. The vehicle can
heat up very quickly, resulting
in serious injuries or death to
the child in the vehicle.
WARNING - Seat belt use
Do not use one seat belt for two
occupants at the same time.
This will eliminate any safety
benefit provided by the seat belt
to the occupants resulting in
serious injury or death.
WARNING
Never use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback, it may not pro-
vide adequate security in an
accident.
