WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement the
other vehicle safety systems. They may
provide additional protection against injury
in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable
head restraints/headrests must be adjusted
properly, as specified in this section. Check
the adjustment after someone else uses the
seat. Do not attach anything to the head
restraint/headrest stalks or remove the
head restraint/headrest. Do not use the
seat if the head restraint/headrest has been
removed. If the head restraint/headrest was
removed, reinstall and properly adjust the
head restraint/headrest before an occupant
uses the seating position. Failure to follow
these instructions can reduce the effective-
ness of the head restraint/headrest. This
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

The illustration shows the seating posi-
tions equipped with head restraint/head-
rest.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a head restraint.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a headrest.
+ indicates the seating position is not
equipped with a head restraint or head-
rest.
. Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be inte-
grated, adjustable or non-adjustable. .
Adjustable head restraints/headrests
have multiple notches along the stalk
to lock them in a desired adjustment
position.
. The non-adjustable head restraints/
headrests have a single locking notch
to secure them to the seat frame.
. Proper Adjustment:
— For the adjustable type, align the
head restraint/headrest so the cen-
ter of your ear is approximately level
with the center of the head re-
straint/headrest.
— If your ear position is still higher
than the recommended alignment,
place the head restraint/headrest at
the highest position.
. If the head restraint/headrest has been
removed, ensure that it is reinstalled
and locked in place before riding in that
designated seating position.

3. For child restraints that are equipped
with webbing-mounted attachments,
remove any additional slack from the
anchor attachments. Press downward
and rearward firmly in the center of the
child restraint with your hand to com-
press the vehicle seat cushion and
seatback while tightening the webbing
of the anchor attachments.
SSS0650
Rear-facing —step 4
4. After attaching the child restraint, test
it before you place the child in it. Push
it from side to side while holding the
child restraint near the LATCH attach-
ment path. The child restraint should
not move more than 1 inch (25 mm),
from side to side. Try to tug it forward
and check to see if the LATCH attach-
ment holds the restraint in place. If the
restraint is not secure, tighten the
LATCH attachment as necessary, or
put the restraint in another seat and
test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint or try installing
by using the vehicle seat belt (if applicable). Not all child restraints fit
in all types of vehicles.
5. Check to make sure the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If
the child restraint is loose, repeat steps
1 through 4.

the seat belt is fully retracted.

it before you place the child in it. Push
it from side to side while holding the
child restraint near the seat belt path.
The child restraint should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm), from side to
side. Try to tug it forward and check to
see if the belt holds the restraint in
place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the seat belt as necessary, or
put the restraint in another seat and
test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles. 7.
Check to make sure that the child
restraint is properly secured prior to
each use. If the seat belt is not locked,
repeat steps 1 through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt fully retracted, the ALR mode
(child restraint mode) is canceled.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING LATCH
Y51D-V-E01-D9ED4467-51A0-45CD-B0F6-DFDE679BDEACRefer 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 LATCH
system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint man-
ufacturer’s instructions.

Forward-facing web-mounted—step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor at-
tachments to the LATCH lower anchors.
Check to make sure the LATCH attach-
ment is properly attached to the lower
anchors.
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. See “Installing top
tether strap” (P.1-34). 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.
SSS0646
Forward-facing rigid-mounted —step 2
3. 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/headrests” (P.1-5)
for head restraint adjustment informa-
tion.
If the seating position does not have an
head restraint and it is interfering with the proper child restraint fit, try another
seating position or a different child
restraint.
