PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING
O
Infants and small children should al-
ways be placed in an appropriate child
restraint while riding in the vehicle. Fail-
ure to use a child restraint or booster
seat can result in serious injury or death.
O
Infants and small children should never
be carried on your lap. It is not possible
for even the strongest adult to resist the
forces of a severe accident. The child
could be crushed between the adult and
parts of the vehicle. Also, do not put the
same seat belt around both your child
and yourself.
O
INFINITI recommends that the booster
seat be installed in the rear seat. Ac-
cording to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat. If you
must install a booster seat in the front
seat, see “Booster seat installation” in
this section.
O
A booster seat must only be installed in
a
seating
position
that
has
a
lap/shoulder belt. Failure to use a three-
point type seat belt with a booster seat
can result in a serious injury in sudden
stop or collision.
O
Improper use or improper installation of
a booster seat can increase the risk or
severity of injury for both the child and
other occupants of the vehicle and can
lead to serious injury or death in an
accident.
O
Do not use towels, books, pillows or
other items in place of a booster seat.
Items such as these may move during
normal driving or a collision and result
in serious injury or death. Booster seats
are designed to be used with a
lap/shoulder belt. Booster seats are de-
signed to properly route the lap and
shoulder portions of the seat belt over
the strongest portions of a child’s body
to provide the maximum protection
during a collision.
O
Follow all of the booster seat manufac-
turer’s instructions for installation and
use. When purchasing a booster seat, be
sure to select one which will fit your
child and vehicle. It may not be possible
to properly install some types of booster
seats in your vehicle.
O
If the booster seat and seat belt is not
used properly, the risk of a child being
injured in a collision or a sudden stop
greatly increases.
O
Adjustable seatbacks should be posi-
tioned to fit the booster seat, but as up-
