Children Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! That includes infants and all children smaller than adult size. In fact, the law in every state in the United States and in every Canadian province says children up to some agemust be restrained while in a vehicle. Smaller Children and Babies I A CAUTION: A Q A very young child's bones are so small that a hip regular belt might not stay low on the hips, as it should. Instead, the belt will likely be over the child's abdomen. In a crash, the belt would apply force right on the child's abdomen, which could cause serious or fatal injuries. Smaller children and babies should always berestrained in a child restraint. However, infants, who should be restrained in a rearfacing child restraint, cannot ride safely in this vehicle. The instructions for the restraint will say whether it is the right type and size for yourchild. If a forward-facing child restraint is suitable for your child, besure the child is always properly restrained while riding in this vehicle. 1-24
