Subaru Crosstrek Owners Manual: Infants or small children
Use a child restraint system that is suitable for your vehicle. Refer to "Child restraint systems" 1-24.
Children
If a child is too big for a child restraint system, the child should sit in the rear seat and be restrained using the seatbelts.
According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions. Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
If the shoulder portion of the belt crosses the face or neck, move the child closer to the belt buckle to help provide a good shoulder belt fit. Care must be taken to securely place the lap belt as low as possible on the hips and not on the child's waist. If the shoulder portion of the belt cannot be properly positioned, a child restraint system should be used. Never place the shoulder belt under the child's arm or behind the child's back.
