4.
Position and release it the same way as the lap part
of a lap-shoulder belt.
If
the belt isn’t long enough, see “Safety Belt Extender”
at the end of this section. Make sure the release button
on the buckle is positioned
so
you would be able to
unbuckle the safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
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 age
must
be
restrained while in
a
vehicle.
Smaller
Children
and
Babies
A
CAUTION:
Smaller children and babies should always be
restrained in a child or infant restraint. The
instructions for the restraint will say whether
it
is
the right type and size
for
your child.
A
very
young child’s hip bones
are
so
small that
a
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.
So,
be
sure
that
any child small enough for one is always properly
restrained in
a
child or infant restraint.
