Protecting Children
Protecting Infants
Child Seat Type
To provide proper support for a
baby's head, neck and back, infants
up to about one year of age must be
restrained in a rear-facing child seat.
Two types of seats may be used: a
seat designed exclusively for infants,
or a convertible seat used in the rear-
facing, reclining mode.
We recommend that an infant stay in
a rear-facing child seat as long as
possible, until they reach the seat
maker's weight or height limit and
are able to sit up without support.
Infant Seat Placement
In this vehicle, a rear-facing child
seat can be placed in any seating
position in the back seat, but not in
the front seat.
Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front seat.
If the passenger's
airbag inflates, it can hit the back of
the child seat with enough force to
kill or seriously injure an infant. If an
infant must be closely watched, we
recommend that another adult sit in
the back seat with the baby.
Do not put a rear-facing child seat in
a forward-facing position.
If an
infant faces forward, they could be
very seriously injured during a
frontal collision.
CONTINUED
Driver and Passenger Safety
Placing a rear-facing child seat
in the front seat can result in
serious injury or death if the
airbags inflate.
Always place a rear-facing child
seat in the back seat, not the
front.
