restraints for children. Also see
Airbag supplemental restraint system
(SRS)

Important child restraint precautions
NOTE:
You are required by law to use a child-restraint system in the
U.S. and Canada. Many states require that children use approved booster
seats until they are eight years old. Check your local and state or
provincial laws for specific requirements regarding the safety of children
in your vehicle.
