TABLE OF CONTENTS

CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, ifavailable. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seats rather than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for
ignoring it.
WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
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.
Integrated Child Booster Seat
• The Integrated Child Booster Seat is located in each outboard second-row passengerseat, is designed for children weighing between 48 and 85 lbs (22 and 39 kg) and
between 47 in (119 cm) and 57 in (145 cm) tall.
• To position a child into the Integrated Child Booster Seat follow these steps: • Slide the second row seat to the full rear position to use the Integrated ChildBooster Seat.
NOTE: The second row bench with Integrated Child Booster Seat must remain in the full
rear position during use.
• Pull the release loop forward to release the latch and seat cushion. • Grasp the latch plate and pull out theseat belt.
• Lift the seat cushion up and push back to lock it in the booster seat position.

• Place the child upright in the seat withtheir back firmly against the seatback.
• Grasp the latch plate and pull out the seat belt.
• Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the seat belt to
go around the child’s lap.
NOTE: The lap portion of the seat belt should be low on the hips and as snug as
possible.
• Once the seat belt is long enough to fit properly, insert the latch plate into thebuckle until you hear a “click.”
• To remove the slack from the lap belt, pull upward on the shoulder portion of the seat belt.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle’s second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraintanchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
• All three second-row passenger seating positions have lower anchors that are capable of accommodating LATCH-compatible child seats.
• Rigid fixed lower attachments can only be used in the outboard seating positions. Flexible lower attachments can be used in all seating positions.
• When installing a child seat in the center seating position use one lower anchorage from the outboard seating position and the c enter seat dedicated lower anchorage. If
two child seats are installed in adjacent seating positions you must use the vehicle
seat belt in the center seating position.
• You should NEVERinstall LATCH-compatible child seats so that two seats share a
common lower anchorage.

GETTING STARTED

Installing The Lower Attachments:
• The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seat cushionwhere it meets the seatback.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower strapsand on the tether strap so that you can more
easily attach the hooks o r connectors to the
vehicle anchors.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the seatcover material.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into
the seat, removing slack in the straps
according to the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
Installing The Top Tether Strap (With Either Lower Anchors Or Vehicle Seat
Belt):
• Attach the tether strap to the anchor directly behind the seat where you are placing
the child restraint, being careful to route the tether strap to provide the most direct
path between the anchor and the child restraint, preferably between the head
restraint posts underneath the head restraint.
• Remove all slack and tighten tether strapaccording to child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
NOTE: Ensure that the tether strap does not
slip into the opening between the seatbacks
as you remove slack in the strap.
WARNING!
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure 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 the retractorto 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.
• Route the tether strap to provide the m ost direct path for the strap between the
anchor and the child seat, preferably between the head restraint posts underneath the
head restraint.
• Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the tether anchor and remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: Ensure that the tether strap doe s not slip into the opening between the
seatbacks as you remove slack in the strap.
WARNING!
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.
FRONT SEATS
WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is movi ng is dangerous. The sudden movement of
the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted,
and you could be injured. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.
Manual Seat Adjustment
Forward/Rearward
• Lift up on the adjusting bar located at the front of the seat near the floor and release
at the desired position.
