_& WARNING
If exceptional circumstances require the use
of a forward-facing child restraint on the
front passenger's seat, the child's safety and
well-being require that the following special precautions be taken:
- Make sure the forward-facing seat has been
designed and certified by its manufacturer
for use on a front seat with a passenger
front and side airbag.
- Always follow the manufacturer's instruc­
tions provided with the child safety seat or
infant carrier.
- Always move the front passenger seat to
the highest position in the up and down ad­
justment range and move it back to the
rearmost position in the seat's fore and aft
adjustment range, as far away from the air­
bag as possible, before installing the for­
ward-facing child restraint.
- Always make sure that the safety belt upper
anchorage is behind the child restraint and
not next to or in front of the child restraint
so that the safety belt will be properly posi­
tioned.
- Always make sure that nothing prevents the
front passenger's seat from being moved to
the rearmost position in its fore and aft ad­
justment range.
- Always make sure the backrest is in an up­
right position.
- Make sure that the
PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF
light comes on and stays on all the time
whenever the ignition is switched on.

- If the light does not stay on, perform the
checks
¢ page 124, Monitoring the Ad­
vanced Airbag System.
-T ake the child restraint off the front passen­
ger seat and install it properly at one of the
rear seat positions if the
PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF
light does not stay on whenever
the ignition is switched on.
Booster seats and safety belts
Properly used booster seats can help protect
children weighing between about 40 lbs . and 80
lbs. (18 kg and 36 kg) who are less than 4 ft.
9
in . (57 inches/1.45 meters) tall.
Fig. 124 Rear seat: child proper ly restrained in a booster
seat
The vehicle's safety belts alone will not fit most
children until they are at least 4 ft. 9 in. (57 in­
ches/1.45 meters) tall and weigh about 80 lbs.
(36 kg). Booster seats raise these children up so
that the safety belt will pass properly over the
stronger parts of their bodies and the safety belt
can help protect them in a crash.
.,. Do not use the convertible locking retractor
when using the vehicle's safety belt to restrain
a child on a booster seat.
.,. The shoulder belt must lie as close to the cen­
ter of the child 's collar bone as possible and
must lie flat and snug on the upper body.
It
must never lie across the throat or neck. The
lap belt must lie across the pelvis and never
across the stomach or abdomen . Make sure the
belt lies flat and snug . Pull on the belt to tight­
en if necessary.

LATCH system (lower
anchorages and tethers
for children)
Child Restraint System anchors and how
are they related to child safety
To prov ide a simpler and more practicable way to
attach the child restra int on the vehicle seat,
F edera l regulat ions require specia l lower ancho ­
r ages in vehicles and devices on new child re­
straints to attach to the vehicle anchorages.
I n the United States, the combination of the
tether anchorages and the lowe r anchorages is
now genera lly called the LA TC H system for
" L ower Anchorages and Tethers for C hildren" . In
Canada, the terms "top tether" with "lower uni­
versal anchorages" (or "lower un iversal anchor­
age bars") are used to describe the system.
In other countries the term "ISO FIX" is used to
describe the lower anchorages .
Forward-facing child res tra ints man ufactu red af­
ter September 1, 1999, are required by U.S. fed­
eral regulations to comply with new child head
movement performance requirements. These
Ch ild safety
new per formance requirements make a tether
necessary on most new chi ld seats.
Installing a ch ild rest raint that requires a top
tether without one can seriously impa ir the per­
formance of the child restraint and its ab ility to
protect the child in a co llision. Installing a child
restra int that requires a top tether without the
top tether may be a violat ion of state law.
Child restraint manufacturers offer LATCH lowe r
anchorages on their child seats with hook-on or
push-on connectors attached to adjustable
straps.
In addition to the LATCH lower anchorages, these
child restraint systems usua lly require the use of
tether straps to help keep the child restra int
firmly in p lace.
_&. WARNING
Improper installation of child restra ints w ill
i ncrease the risk of injury and death in a
crash.
- Always follow the instructions prov ided by
the man ufacturer of the ch ild restraint you
inte nd to install in your vehicle.
- Never i nstall a chi ld restraint without a
proper ly attached top tether strap if the
child restraint manufacture r's instructions
require the top tether strap to be used.
-
- Improper use of child restraint LATCH lower
anchorage points can lead to injury in a col li­
sion. The LA TC H l ower anchorage points are
des igned to w ithstand only those loads im­
posed by correctly fitted child restraints .
- Never mo unt two child res traint systems on
one LA TC H lower anchorage point.
- Never secure or at tach any luggage o r othe r
item to the LA TC H l ower anchorages.

Tether anchors and tether straps
Fig. 129 Tether ancho rs: attac hmen t hook locatio ns be ­
hind the rear sea tbacks
The tether anchors for the rear seating positions
are located on the backside of the rear seatbacks
¢ fig . 129 .
A tether is a straight or V-shaped strap that at­
taches the top part of a child restraint to special
anchorage points in the veh icle.
T he purpose of the tether is to reduce the for ­
ward movement of the chi ld restraint in a crash,
in order to help reduce the risk of head injury
that could be caused by striking the vehicle inte-
rior.
