properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. For more information
about the use of these restraints,
refer to "Child Restraint System

Small children are best protected
from injury in an accident when
properly restrained in the rear seat

appropriate for your child's height
and weight. Check the label on the
child restraint for this information.
