Safety of Infants and Small Children

Positioning a rear-facing child seat

Child seats must be placed and secured in a

rear seating position.

Protecting Infants

Rear-facing child seats should never be installed in a

forward facing position.

Always refer to the child seat manufacturer’s

instructions before installation.

WARNING

Placing a rear-facing child seat in the front

seat can result in serious injury or death

during a crash.

Always place a rear-facing child seat in the

rear seat, not the front.

Protecting Infants

An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the

infant reaches the seat maker's weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant is

at least one year old.

When properly installed, a rear-facing child seat may prevent the driver or a front

passenger from moving their seat all the way back, or from locking their seat-back

in the desired position.

It can also interfere with proper operation of the passenger's advanced front

airbag system.

P.33

If this occurs, we recommend that you install the child seat directly behind the

front passenger's seat, move the seat as far forward as needed, and leave it

unoccupied. Or, you may wish to get a smaller rear-facing child seat.
