Cinncinati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and Toyota are teaming up on a program that was founded in 2004 called “Buckle Up for Life" to offer car seat safety tips ahead of the summer road trip season. These 5 simple steps can help make sure you're strapping in correctly. And you could watch the video tutorial in your android car dvd player and android 2 din car stereo.

 

  1. Use the “Pinch Test” and the “Inch Test”. Pinch the car seat strap near the child’s shoulder. If you can gather the fabric,Help keep your kids safe as you take your summer road trips Articles tighten the strap until it is snug. For the “Inch Test”, move the car seat side to side and front to back. If the seat moves more than an inch, tighten it.

 

  1. Don’t add anything between your child and the seat. Putting a pillow, blanket or towel between your child and the seat could potentially harm your child. Then playing the android car dvd make your child relax.

 

  1. Let the seat cool down before buckling child in. Car seats can get hot in the summer, the same as to your android car GPS or Opel navi installation. It is better to let them cool down before placing your child in the seat. Check to make sure the seat is comfortable for the child; if the surface is hot, open the windows or turn on the air conditioner. Also, and this should go without saying, NEVER leave your children in the car alone, especially in hot conditions.

 

  1. Don’t rent a car seat. Important information like the expiration date and crash history may not be available for a car seat you are renting. Using the vauxhall sat nav to take you to a specialty store selling car seats and buying a highly rated and well-reviewed seat is an investment in your child’s safety.

 

  1. Secure loose items inside the car with buit-in android car dvd and android car GPS. Packaging all your traveling essentials in safe, secure places will prevent objects from flying everywhere in case of a crash.
