Replacing LATCH System
Parts After a Crash
{ WarningA crash can damage the LATCH
system in the vehicle. A damaged
LATCH system may not properly
secure the child restraint,
resulting in serious injury or even
death in a crash. To help make
sure the LATCH system is
working properly after a crash,
see your dealer to have the
system inspected and any
necessary replacements made as
soon as possible.
If the vehicle has the LATCH system
and it was being used during a
crash, new LATCH system parts
may be needed.
New parts and repairs may be
necessary even if the LATCH
system was not being used at the
time of the crash. Securing Child Restraints This vehicle has airbags. In
addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system which is
designed to turn off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
under certain conditions. See
Passenger Sensing System on
page 3-22 and Passenger Airbag
Status Indicator on page 5-10 for
more information, including
important safety information.
Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front. This is because the risk to
the rear-facing child is so great if the
airbag deploys.
{ Warning
A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured
or killed if the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag inflates.
This is because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would
(Continued) Warning (Continued) be very close to the inflating
airbag. A child in a forward-facing
child restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
inflates and the passenger seat is
in a forward position.
Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag, no system is fail-safe. No
one can guarantee that an airbag
will not deploy under some
unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off.
Do not secure a rear-facing child
restraint in the vehicle.
If you secure a forward-facing
child restraint in the vehicle,
always move the front passenger
seat as far back as it will go.

Seats and Restraints 3-43Warning (Continued)See Passenger Sensing System
on page 3-22 for additional
information.
Rear-facing child restraints should
not be installed in the vehicle, even
if the airbag is off.
If a child restraint uses a top tether,
see Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on
page 3-38 for top tether anchor
locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor
if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be anchored, or if
the instructions that come with the
child restraint say that the top strap
must be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have
a top tether, and that the tether be
attached. Securing a Forward-Facing Child
Restraint
When using the lap-shoulder belt to
secure a forward-facing child
restraint in this position, follow the
instructions that came with the child
restraint and the following
instructions:
1. Move the seat as far back as it
will go before securing the
forward-facing child restraint.
When the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag, the off indicator on the
passenger airbag status
indicator should light and stay lit
when you start the vehicle
unless the passenger seat is
unoccupied. See Passenger
Airbag Status Indicator on
page 5-10 .
2. Put the child restraint on
the seat. 3. Pick up the latch plate, and run
the lap and shoulder portions of
the vehicle ’ s safety belt through
or around the restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
4. Push the latch plate into the
buckle until it clicks.
Position the release button on
the buckle so that the safety belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.

3-44 Seats and Restraints
5. Pull the shoulder belt all the way
out of the retractor to set the
lock. When the retractor lock is
set, the belt can be tightened but
not pulled out of the retractor. 6. To tighten the belt, push down
on the child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. It may be
helpful to use your knee to push
down on the child restraint or
booster seat as you tighten
the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the
retractor is locked. If the
retractor is not locked, repeat
Step 5 and 6. 7. If the child restraint has a top
tether, follow the child restraint
manufacturer ’ s instructions
regarding the use of the top
tether. See Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children (LATCH
System) on page 3-38 .
8. Before placing a child in the
child restraint, make sure it is
securely held in place. To check,
grasp the child restraint at the
safety belt path and attempt to
move it side to side and back
and forth. When the child
restraint is properly installed,
there should be no more than
2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.
If the airbag is off, the off indicator in
the passenger airbag status
indicator will come on and stay on
when the vehicle is started unless
the passenger seat is unoccupied.
If a child restraint has been installed
and the off indicator is not lit, see “ If
the Off Indicator Is Not Lit for a
Child Restraint ” under Passenger
Sensing System on page 3-22 .

Seats and Restraints 3-45To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle safety belt and
let it return to the stowed position.
Securing a Booster Seat
{ WarningDo not use the child restraint
locking feature when using a
booster seat with the safety belts.
Follow these steps to install a
booster seat in the front
passenger seat:
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
front-facing direction. Always
follow the booster seat
manufacturer ’ s instructions. 3. The booster seat should be
positioned on the vehicle seat so
that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove
the head restraint to obtain the
correct booster seat fit. If the
head restraint is removed, store
it in a secure place. Be sure to
reinstall the head restraint when
the booster seat is removed. For
more information, see Head
Restraints on page 3-2 for head
restraint adjustment, removal,
and installation information.
If the seating position does not
have an adjustable head
restraint and it is interfering with
the proper booster seat fit, try a
different booster seat.
4. Position the lap portion of the
safety belt low and snug on the
child ’ s hips. Be sure to follow the
booster seat manufacturer ’ s
instructions for adjusting the
safety belt routing. 5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of
the safety belt toward the
retractor to take up the extra
slack. Be sure the shoulder belt
is positioned across the top,
middle portion of the child ’ s
shoulder. Be sure to follow the
booster seat manufacturer ’ s
instructions for adjusting the
safety belt routing.
6. Follow the warnings, cautions,
and instructions for properly
fastening a safety belt. See
Lap-Shoulder Belt on page 3-10 .

the ignition switch in the ON
position. The passenger airbag
status indicator may or may not
be lit, depending on the size of
the child and the type of booster
seat being used. For more
information, see Passenger
Airbag Status Indicator on
page 5-10 .
