CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if
available. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly re-
strained in the rear seats rather than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and every Canadian province requires that small
children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be pros-
ecuted for ignoring it.
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 Tethers
for CHildren. LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed in both rear
seating positions.
• The LATCH lower anchorages are round bars, located at the rear of the seat
cushion where it meets the seatback. They can be readily identified by the sym-
bol located on the seatback directly above the anchorages and are just visible
when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.
• In addition, there are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position
located on the back of the seat.
•NEVERuse the same lower anchorage to attach more than one child restraint.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the
lower straps and tether straps so that
you can attach the hook or connector
to the anchors.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors
over the top of the anchorage bars,
pushing aside the seat cover material.
• Pass the tether strap under the center of the head restraint and attach it to the
top tether anchor on the rear of the seatback.
• Tighten all three straps as you push
the child restraint rearward and down-
ward into the seat. Remove slack in
the straps according to the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions.

Installing the Child Restraint Using the Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the re-
tractor to route it through the belt path of the child restraint.
• Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click”.
• Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat.
• To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of the belt until you have
pulled all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing to
retract back into the retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will hear a clicking
sound. This means the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking mode.
• Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is locked, you should not be able
to pull out any webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat the above step to
lock it.
• Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child
restraint while you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the ve-
hicle seat.
• Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and
pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, connect
the top tether strap. Pass the tether strap under the center of the head restraint
and attach it to the top tether anchor on the rear of the seatback. Remove slack
in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projec-
tile 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 severely injured or killed. Any
child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper restraint for the child's size.
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead
to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be severely 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.
• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle
with a front passenger air bag. An air bag deployment could cause severe
injury or death to infants in this position.
• This vehicle does not have a center seating position. Do not use the center
lower LATCH anchorages to install a child seat in the center of the back
seat.
