Use a safety seat that is recommended for the size and weight of the child.

When installing a child safety seat:

When installing a child safety seat:

• Review and follow the information presented in the Airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) section in this chapter.

• Carefully follow all of the manufacturer’s instructions included with the safety seat you put in your vehicle. If you do not install and use the safety seat properly, the child may be injured in a sudden stop or collision.

• If needed, when installing some high-back child restraints, the head restraints of the second row seating positions can be removed. See Second-row adjustable head restraints in this chapter for more information.

WARNING: If the head restraint has been removed from a seating position to accommodate a high-back child restraint, the head restraint must be re-installed prior to use of the seat by any other occupant in order to reduce the risk of personal injury in the event of a collision.

Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. NEVER place a rear-facing child seat in front of an active airbag. If you must use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move the vehicle seat all the way back.

Children 12 and under should be properly restrained in a rear seating position whenever possible. If all children cannot be seated and restrained properly in a rear seating position, properly restrain the largest child in the front seat.
