INSTALLATION ON 3RD ROW
BENCH SEAT
WARNING
cThe three-point seat belt in your vehicle
is equipped with an automatic locking
mode retractor which must be used
when installing a child restraint.
cFailure to use the retractor’s locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The re-
straint could tip over or otherwise be
unsecured and cause injury to the child
in a sudden stop or collision.
cWhen installing a child restraint system
in the rear center position, both the
center seat belt connector tongue and
buckle tongue must be secured. See
“Attaching rear center seat belt” earlier
in this section.
Front facing
WARNING
Front facing child restraints can be in-
stalled in all 3rd row bench seat positions.
However, front facing child restraints that
require the use of a top tether strap can be
installed in the center 3rd row position
only. Do not install a child restraint requir-
ing a top tether strap in an outboard posi-
tion and attempt to angle the tether to the
3rd row center anchor.

When you install a LATCH system compatible
child restraint to the lower anchor attachments,
follow these steps:
WARNING
Inspect the lower anchors by inserting
your fingers into the lower anchor area
and feeling to make sure there are no
obstructions over the LATCH system an-
chors, such as seat belt webbing or seat
cushion material. The child restraint will
not be secured properly if the LATCH sys-
tem anchors are obstructed.
1. To install the LATCH system compatible
child restraint, insert the child restraint
LATCH system anchor attachments into the
anchor points on the seat. If the child re-
straint is equipped with a top tether, see
“Top tether strap child restraint” later in this
section for installation instructions.
2. After attaching the child restraint and before
placing the child in it, use force to tilt the
child restraint from side to side and tug it
forward to make sure that the child restraint
is securely held in place. It should not move
more than 1 inch.
3. Check to make sure that the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use.
TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD
RESTRAINT
If your child restraint has a top tether strap, it must
be secured to the anchor point provided behind
its position.
WARNING
Child restraint anchor points are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used for
adult seat belts or harnesses.
First, secure the child restraint with the seat belt
or the LATCH system (2nd row outboard seat
positions only) , as applicable.
For the 2nd row bench seats (if so equipped)
outboard seating positions only, adjust the head
restraint to its highest position and route the top
tether strap between the head restraint and the
top of the seatback. Secure the tether strap to the
tether anchor point on the floor directly behind
the seat. The center position of the 2nd row
bench seat is not equipped with a top tether
anchor point.
For the 2nd row captain’s chairs (if so equipped) ,
adjust the head restraint to its highest position
and route the top tether strap between the headrestraint and the top of the seatback. Secure the
tether strap to the tether anchor point on the floor
directly behind the seat.
The center position of the 3rd row bench seat is
the seating position that can use a top tether
strap. The center 3rd row seat position does not
have a head restraint. Position the top tether
strap over the top of the seatback and secure it to
the tether anchor bracket as shown later in this
section. Tighten the tether strap according to the
manufacturer’s instructions to remove any slack.
WARNING
In the 3rd row bench seat, a child restraint
with a top tether strap can only be used in
the center position. Do not place in an
outboard seating position and attempt to
angle the tether strap to the center
position.
For best child restraint fit, see the child restraint
installation instructions in this section and the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
Anchor point locations
Anchor points are located on the floor behind the
outboard seating positions only for the 2nd row
bench seat (if so equipped) , on the floor behind
the 2nd row captain’s chairs (if so equipped) and

3. Adjust the driver’s seat, accelerator and
brake pedals, and outside mirrors to the
desired positions by manually operating
each adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seats” in the “Safety—Seats,
seat belts and supplemental air bags” sec-
tion and “Pedal position adjustment” and
“Outside mirrors” earlier in this section.
During this step, do not turn the ignition to
any position other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds,
push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully for at
least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.
After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2) .
If memory is stored in the same memory switch,
the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking a keyfob to a stored memory
position
A keyfob can be linked to a stored memory posi-
tion with the following procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory posi-
tion.2. While the indicator light for the memory
switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, press the
button on the keyfob.
The indicator light will blink. After the indica-
tor light goes off, the keyfob is linked to that
memory setting.
With the key removed from the ignition switch,
press the
button on the keyfob. The driv-
er’s seat, accelerator and brake pedals, and out-
side mirrors will move to the memorized position.
Confirming memory storage
cTurn the ignition ON and push the SET
switch. If the main memory has not been
stored, the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored the position, the indica-
tor light will stay on for approximately 5 sec-
onds.
cIf the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse blows, the memory will be canceled. In
such a case, reset the desired positions
using the following procedures.
1. Open and close the driver’s door more than
two times with the ignition key in the LOCK
position.2. Reset the desired position using the previ-
ous procedure.
Selecting the memorized position
1. Set the automatic transmission selector le-
ver to the P (Park) position.
2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully for at
least 1 second.
The driver’s seat, accelerator and brake
pedals, and outside mirrors will move to the
memorized position with the indicator light
blinking, and then the light will stay on for
approximately 5 seconds.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
will automatically move when the automatic
transmission selector lever is in the P (Park)
position. This allows the driver to get into and out
of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward:
cWhen the driver’s door is opened with the
ignition key turned to LOCK.
cWhen the ignition key is turned from ACC to
LOCK with the driver’s door open while the
