WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectileinside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could
become so great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you
are. The child and others could be badly injured. Any child riding in your vehicle
should be in a proper restraint for the child’s size.
• Rearward-facing child seats must NEVERbe used in the front seat of a vehicle
with a front passenger airbag. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury
or death to infants in this position.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle’s second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint
anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
• The two rear seating positions have lower anchorages that are capable of accommodating LATCH-compatible child seats having flexible, webbing mounted
lower attachments or fixed lower attachments.
• The rear seat lower anchorages are roundbars, located at the rear of the seat
cushion where it meets the seatback. They
are just visible when you lean into the rear
seat to install the child restraint. You will
easily feel them if you run your finger
along the intersection of the seatback and
seat cushion surfaces.
• The top tether strap anchorages are located in the trunk behind the rear seatback. The access ports to the top tether anchorages are directly behind the seat
headrests under a plastic cover.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and tether straps so that you can attach the hook or connector to the lower and tether anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the seat cover material.
• If lowered, raise the convertible top.
NOTE: The convertible top must be in the UP position to access the tether anchor.
• Open the access port cover behind the seat where you are placing the child restraint.

• Push the tether strap and hook throughthe access port and down into the trunk.
NOTE: Route the tether strap to provide
the most direct path from the child seat to
the anchor.
• From inside the trunk, open the access cover on the carpet covering the back of
the seat and attach the tether strap hook
to the anchor.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into
the seat.
WARNING!
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead tofailure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child
restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the
child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from theretractor to route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch
plate into the buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap
portion around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so
check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
• If lowered, raise the convertible top.
