Protecting Larger Children When Can a Larger Child Ride in this Vehicle If the passenger's airbag inflates in a moderate to severe frontal collision, the airbag can cause serious injuries to a child who is unrestrained, improperly restrained, sitting too close to the airbag, or out of position. Of course, children vary widely. And while age may be one indicator of when a child can safely ride in this vehicle. There are other important factors you should consider. Maturity To safely ride in this vehicle, a child must be able to follow the rules, including sitting properly, and wearing the seat belt properly throughout ride. Physical Size If you decide that a child can safely ride in this vehicle, be sure to: Carefully read the owner's manual, and make sure you understand all seat belt instructions and all safety information. Move the vehicle seat to the rearmost position. Have the child sit up straight, back against the seat, and feet on or near the floor. Check that the child's seat belt is properly and securely positioned. Supervise the child. Even mature children sometimes need to be reminded to fasten the seat belts or sit properly. Physically, a child must be large enough for the lap/shoulder belt to properly fit (see page 30 ). If the seat belt does not fit properly, with or without the child sitting on a booster, the child should not sit in this vehicle. 32 Driver and Passenger Safety
