Restraining a Child Who Weighs Over 40 Pounds (18 kg) We recommend that, whenever possible, a child who has outgrown a toddler seat ride in one of the outside positions of the rear seat and use a lap/shoulder belt. Put the lap/shoulder belt on your child and check its fit. The shoulder belt should fit over the collarbone and across the chest. The lap belt should sit low on your child's hips, not across the stomach. If the shoulder belt crosses the neck, have your child move toward the center of the rear seat until the belt fits properly. If the belt still crosses the child's neck, you should use a booster seat. Several styles of booster seats are available. We recommend a design that allows the child to use the car's lap/shoulder belt. Whichever style you select, follow the booster seat manufacturer's instructions. Storing a Child Seat When you are not using an infant seat or other child restraint, either remove it or make sure it is properly secured so it cannot be thrown around the car during a crash.

Restraining a Child Who Weighs Over 40 Pounds (18 kg)
We recommend that, whenever possible, a child who has outgrown
a toddler seat ride in one of the outside positions of the rear seat
and use a lap/shoulder belt.
Put
the
lap/shoulder
belt
on
your
child
and
check
its
fit.
The
shoulder belt should fit over the collarbone and across the chest.
The lap belt should sit low on your child's hips, not across the
stomach.
If the shoulder belt crosses the neck, have your child move toward
the center of the rear seat until the belt fits properly. If the belt still
crosses the child's neck, you should use a booster seat.
Several styles of
booster seats are available. We recommend a
design that allows the child to use the car's lap/shoulder belt.
Whichever style you select, follow the booster seat manufacturer's
instructions.
Storing a Child Seat
When you are not using an infant seat or other child restraint, either
remove it or make sure it is properly secured so it cannot be thrown
around the car during a crash.
