WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjustable head restraints/head-
rests 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 re-
move the head restraint/headrest. Do
not use the seat if the head restraint/
headrest has been removed. If the head
restraint/headrest was removed, rein-
stall and properly adjust the head
restraint/headrest before an occupant
uses the seating position. Failure to
follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraint/
headrest. This may increase the risk of
serious injury or death in a collision.

The illustration shows the seating positions
equipped with head restraint/headrest.
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 headrest.
. Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be integrated,
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/head-
rests 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 center of your
ear is approximately level with the center
of the head restraint/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 desig-
nated seating position.

FORWARD-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT INSTALLATION USING
LATCH
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections before
installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg) . If the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is
greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use the vehicle’s
seat belt (not the lower anchors) to install the
child restraint. Be sure to follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions for installa-
tion.
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 manufac-
turer’s instructions.
SSS0645Forward-facing web-mounted — step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment 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” in this
section. 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.
SSS0646Forward-facing rigid-mounted — step 2
3. The back of the child restraint should besecured against the vehicle seatback.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or headrest and it
is interfering with the proper child restraint
fit, try another seating position or a different
child restraint.

SSS0640Forward-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections before
installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg) . If the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is
greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use the vehicle’s
seat belt (not the lower anchors) to install the
child restraint. Be sure to follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions for installa-
tion.
Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint using the vehicle seat belt in therear 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 manufac-
turer’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct child
restraint fit. If the head restraint/headrest is
removed, store it in a secure place. Be sure
to reinstall the head restraint/headrest
when the child restraint is removed.
See “Head restraints/Headrests” (P.1-5) for
head restraint/headrest adjustment, removal
and installation information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or headrest and it
is interfering with the proper child restraint
fit, try another seating position or a different
child restraint.
SSS0360BForward-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 installation only) . See
“Installing top tether strap” (P.1-37) . 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.
seat belts.
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety”, “Child restraints” and “Booster seats”
sections earlier in this section before installing a
child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster seat in the
rear seat or in the front passenger seat:
SSS0640
1. If you must install a booster seat in the
front seat, move the seat to the rear-
most position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a forward-facing direction. Always
follow the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions.
LRS0454Front passenger position
3. The booster seat should be positioned onthe vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. If the head restraint/head-
rest is removed, store it in a secure place.
Be sure to reinstall the head restraint/
headrest when the booster seat is
removed. See “Head restraints/Headrests”
(P.1-5) for head restraint/headrest adjust-
ment, removal and installation information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or headrest and it
is interfering with the proper booster seat fit,
