WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used to at-
tach adult seat belts, or other items or
equipment to the vehicle. Doing so could
damage the child restraint anchorages.
The child restraint will not be properly
installed using the damaged anchorage,
and a child could be seriously injured or
killed in a collision.

Precautions on booster seats
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not
used properly, the risk of a child being
injured or killed in a sudden stop or col-
lision greatly increases:
•
Make sure the shoulder portion of the
belt is away from the child’s face and
neck and the lap portion of the belt
does not cross the stomach.
•
Make sure the shoulder belt is not be-
hind the child or under the child’s arm.
•
A booster seat must only be installed
in a seating position that has a lap/
shoulder belt.
