periodically and make sure the seat belt buckle is latched.
A child’s squirming or slouching can move the belt out of
position. If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck,
move the child closer to the center of the vehicle, or use
a booster seat to position the seat belt on the child
correctly.
WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an
arm or behind their back. In a crash, the shoulder belt
will not protect a child properly, which may result in
serious injury or death. A child must always wear
both the lap and shoulder portions of the seat belt
correctly.
Installing Child Restraints in Commercial Vehicles
This commercial vehicle is not designed for use as a
family vehicle and is not intended for carrying children
in the front passenger seat(s). Never install rearward-
facing child restraints in this vehicle. Although the seat
belt can be locked to secure a child restraint, there are no
tether anchorages to complete the proper installation of a
forward-facing child restraint. If you must carry a child
in a forward-facing child restraint, the passenger seat
should be moved to the full rearward position and the
child must be in a proper restraint system based on its
age, size and weight. Follow the instructions below to
secure the child restraint using the seat belt.
WARNING!
Rear-facing infant restraints must never be secured
in the passenger seat of a vehicle with a passenger
Air Bag. In a collision, a passenger Air Bag may
deploy causing severe injury or death to infants
riding in rear-facing infant restraints.
