WARNING
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. You could also
slide under the lap belt and receive
serious internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-14).
. After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.
. The seatback should not be reclined
further than necessary for comfort. Seat
belts are most effective when the pas- senger sits well back and straight up in
the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the
risk of sliding under the lap belt and
being injured is increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure
not to contact any moving parts to avoid
possible injuries and/or damages.

WARNING
Head restraints supplement the other vehi-
cle safety systems. They may provide addi-
tional protection against injury in certain
rear end collisions. Adjust the head re-
straints properly, as specified in this sec-
tion. Check the adjustment after someone
else uses the seat. Do not attach anything
to the head restraint stalks or remove the
head restraint. Do not use the seat if the
head restraint has been removed. If the
head restraint was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the head restraint before an
occupant uses the seating position. Failure
to follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraints. This
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

WARNING
. After adjustment, release the adjustment
button and try to move the shoulder belt
anchor up and down to make sure it is
securely fixed in position.
. The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effec-
tiveness of the entire restraint system
and increase the chance or severity of
injury in an accident.

CAUTION
A child restraint in a closed vehicle can
become very hot. Check the seating surface
and buckles before placing a child in the
child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal
child restraint anchor system, referred to
as the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren) system. Some child restraints
include rigid or webbing-mounted attach-
ments that can be connected to these
anchors.
For details, see“Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren System (LATCH)” (P.1-
26).
If you do not have a LATCH compatible
child restraint, the vehicle seat belts can
be used.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for infants and small children of various
sizes. When selecting any child restraint,
keep the following points in mind:
.
Choose only a restraint with a label
certifying that it complies with Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dard 213.
. Check the child restraint in your vehicle
to be sure it is compatible with the
vehicle’s seat and seat belt system.
. If the child restraint is compatible with
your vehicle, place your child in the
child restraint and check the various
adjustments to be sure the child
restraint is compatible with your child.
Choose a child restraint that is de-
signed for your child’s height and
weight. Always follow all recommended
procedures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated. Canadian law requires the
top tether strap on forward-facing child
restraints be secured to the designated
anchor point on the vehicle.

Forward-facing (front passenger seat)—
step 1
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the
“Child safety” and“Child restraints” sec-
tions before installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a forward-
facing child restraint using the vehicle seat
belt in the rear seats or in the front
passenger seat:
1. If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
forward-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and, therefore,
must not be used in the front seat. 2. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint man-
ufacturer’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should
be secured against the vehicle seat-
back.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint to obtain the correct child
restraint fit. If the head restraint is
removed, store it in a secure place. Be
sure to reinstall the head restraint
when the child restraint is removed.
See “Head restraints (front seats)” (P.1-
9) for head restraint adjustment, re-
moval and installation information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint and it is
interfering with the proper child re-
straint fit, try another seating position
or a different child restraint.

Forward-facing —step 3
3. Route the seat belt tongue through the
child restraint and insert it into the
buckle until you hear and feel the latch
engage. Be sure to follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions
for belt routing.
If the child restraint is equipped with a
top tether strap, route the top tether
strap and secure the tether strap to the
tether anchor point (rear seat installa-
tion only). See “Installing top tether
strap” (P.1-38). Do not install child
restraints that require the use of a top
tether strap in seating positions that do
not have a top tether anchor.

LRS0455
Booster seats of various sizes are offered
by several manufacturers. When selecting
any booster seat, keep the following points
in mind:
.Choose only a booster seat with a label
certifying that it complies with Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dard 213.
. Check the booster seat in your vehicle
to be sure it is compatible with the
vehicle’s seat and seat belt system.
LRS0453
. Make sure the child’s head will be
properly supported by the booster seat
or vehicle seat. The seatback must be at
or above the center of the child’s ears.
For example, if a low back booster seat
*1is chosen, the vehicle seatback
must be at or above the center of the
child’s ears. If the seatback is lower
than the center of the child’s ears, a
high back booster seat
*2should be
used.
. If the booster seat is compatible with
your vehicle, place your child in the
booster seat and check the various
adjustments to be sure the booster seat is compatible with your child.
Always follow all recommended proce-
dures.

WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally opening
the doors, and will help keep out
intruders.
. Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.
