Child Safety (cont'd)
Important Safety Reminders
Never hold a baby or child on your lap when riding in a car. If you are
wearing your seat belt, the violent forces created during a crash will
tear the child from your arms. The child could be seriously hurt or
killed.
If you are holding a child and not wearing a seat belt in a crash, you
could crush the child against the car's interior.
Never put your seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash,
the belt could press deep into the child, causing serious internal
injuries.
Two children should never use the same seat belt. If they do, they
could be very seriously injured in a crash.
General Guidelines for Restraining Children Under 40 Pounds
(18kg)
Use an approved child seat. The seat must meet Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213 (FMVSS-213) or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. Look for the manufacturer's statement
of compliance on the box and seat.
Use a seat of the right size. Make sure the seat fits your child.
Check the seat's instructions and labels for height and weight limits.
Secure the child seat to the car. All approved child seats are
designed to be secured in the car seat by the lap belt or the lap belt
portion of a lap/shoulder belt. A child whose seat is not properly
secured to the car can be endangered in a crash.
To properly route a seat belt through a child seat, follow the seat
maker's instructions. If you use a lap/shoulder belt, be sure you
install a locking clip on the belt (see page 32).
Secure the child in the child seat. Make sure the infant or child is
firmly secured to the child seat. Use the straps provided, and
carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions.
