Choose a child restraint system that is
appropriate for the child’s age and size
(weight and height) in order to provide the
child with proper protection. The child
restraint system should meet all applic-
able requirements of Federal Motor Ve-
hicle Safety Standards for the United
States or of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards for Canada. It can be identified
by looking for the label on the child
restraint system or the manufacturer’s
statement of compliance in the document
attached to the system. Also it is impor-
tant for you to make sure that the child
restraint system is compatible with the
vehicle in which it will be used.
NOTE
Some sizes of child restraint systems
may not fit the vehicle seat. Before
purchasing a child restraint system,
check whether it fits on the vehicle seat.
