Important safety rules

• Always use a car safety seat. Start with your baby's first ride home from the hospital.
• Never place a child in a rear-facing car safety seat in the front seat of a vehicle that has a passenger air bag.
• All children younger than 13 years are safest in the back seat.
   
• Be a good role model—always wear your seat belt. This will help your child form a lifelong habit of buckling up.
• Remember that each car safety seat is different. Read and keep the instructions that came with your seat handy, and follow them at all times.
• Read your car owner's manual for information about installing your car safety seat.
   
• If you need help installing your car safety seat, contact a certified Child Passenger Safety (CPS) Technician. To locate a child safety seat inspection station and set up an appointment, call toll-free at 866/SEATCHECK  or  866/732-8243 or visit www.seatcheck.org.
