3. For child restraints that are equipped with
webbing-mounted attachments, remove any
additional slack from the anchor attach-
ments. Press downward and rearward firmly
in the center of the child restraint with your
hand to compress the vehicle seat cushion
and seatback while tightening the webbing
of the anchor attachments.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 attachment 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 attachment
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 2
through 4.

REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Automatic Lock-
ing Retractor (ALR) must be used when install-
ing a child restraint. Failure to use the ALR
mode will result in the child restraint not being
properly secured. The restraint could tip over
or be loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision.
Rear-facing child restraints must not be used
on the front seats.

weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lb (29.5 kg). If the combined weight
of the child and the child restraint is greater
than 65 lb (29.5 kg), use the vehicle seat belt
(not the lower anchors) to install the child
restraint. Be sure to follow the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions for installation.
Follow these steps to install a rear-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belts in the rear
seats:
1.Child restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore must
not be used in the front seat.Position the
child restraint on the seat. Always follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.

the center of the child restraint to compress
the vehicle seat cushion and seatback while
pulling up on the seat belt.6.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 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

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.

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. For additional information, refer to

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.For additional
information about head restraint/headrest
adjustment, refer toHead restraints/

an adjustable head restraint/headrest and it
is interfering with the proper child restraint
fit, try another seating position or a different
child restraint.4. For child restraints that are equipped with
webbing-mounted attachments, remove any
additional slack from the webbing of the
anchor attachments. Press downward and
rearward firmly in the center of the child

Installing top tether strap
The child restraint top tether strap must be
used when installing the child restraint with the
LATCH lower anchor attachments. First, secure
the child restraint with the LATCH lower anchors
(rear outboard seating positions only).
WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to the ve-
hicle. Doing so could damage the child re-
straint anchorages. The child restraint will not
be properly installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision.

FORWARD-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Automatic Lock-
ing Retractor (ALR) must be used when install-
ing a child restraint. Failure to use the ALR
mode will result in the child restraint not being
properly secured. The restraint could tip over
or be loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision. Also, it can change
the operation of the front passenger air bag.
For additional information, refer toFront pas-
senger air bag and status lightin the1. Safety

Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lb (29.5 kg). If the combined weight
of the child and the child restraint is greater
than 65 lb (29.5 kg), use the vehicle seat belt
(not the lower anchors) to install the child
restraint. Be sure to follow the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions for installation.
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 manufactur-
er’s instructions. The back of the child re-
straint 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.
For additional information about head
restraint/headrest adjustment, removal and
installation, refer toHead restraints/
Headrestsin the1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system
section.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint/headrest and it is
interfering with the proper child restraint fit,
try another seating position or a different
child restraint.

3. Route the seat belt tongue through the child
restraint and insert it into the buckle until
you hear and feel the tongue engage. Be
sure to follow the child restraint manufactur-
er’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). For additional infor-
mation, refer toInstalling top tether strap
in the1. Safety — seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint systemsection.
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.4. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fully
extended. At this time, the seat belt retractor
is in the ALR mode (child restraint mode). It
reverts to ELR mode when the seat belt is
fully retracted.5. Allow the seat belt to retract. Pull up on the
shoulder belt to remove any slack in the belt.
