cle is in motion. Severe injury or
death could occur in an accident.

When you return the seatback to its
upright position, hold the seatback
and return it slowly. If the seatback
is returned without holding it, the
back of the seat could spring for-
ward resulting in accidental injury
from being struck by the seatback.
CAUTION- Rear seat belts
When returning the rear (2nd and /or3rd row) seatbacks to the uprightposition, remember to return the rear shoulder belts to their proper posi-tion. Routing the seat belt webbingthrough the rear seat belt guides will help keep the belts from beingtrapped behind or under the seats.

matic transaxle is in P (Park) and the
parking brake is applied whenever

to take these steps may allow the
vehicle to move if shift lever is inad-
vertently moved to another position.
WARNING- Cargo
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about
the vehicle in a collision and caus-
ing injury to the vehicle occupants.
Special care of objects should be
taken when placing them on the
rear (2nd and/or 3rd row) seats,
since those may hit the front seat

Securing a child restraint seat withtether anchor system
Child restraint hook holders are located
on the floor behind the rear seats (or on
the back of the rear seatbacks). 1. Route the child restraint seat tether
strap over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable headrest,
route the tether strap under the head-
rest and between the headrest posts,
otherwise route the tether strap over
the top of the seatback.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the appropriate child restraint hook holder
and tighten to secure the seat.
WARNING- Tether strap
Never mount more than one child
restraint to a single tether or to a
single lower anchorage point. The
increased load caused by multiple
seats may cause the tethers or
lower anchorage points to break,
causing serious injury or death.
WARNING
A child can be seriously injured or
killed in a collision if the child
restraint is not properly anchored
to the car and the child is not prop-
erly restrained in the child restraint.
Always follow the child seat manu-
facturer’s instructions for installa-
tion and use.
