INSTALLING CHILD RESTRAINTS

Using Lap and Shoulder Belts
WARNINGS
Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Never place a rear-facingchild seat in front of an active airbag. If youmust use a forward-facing child seat in thefront seat, move the seat upon which thechild seat is installed all the way back.
Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Children 12 and undershould be properly restrained in the rear seatwhenever possible.
Depending on where you secure achild restraint, and depending on thechild restraint design, you may block accessto certain seatbelt buckle assemblies andLATCH lower anchors, rendering thosefeatures potentially unusable. To avoid riskof injury, occupants should only use seatingpositions where they are able to be properlyrestrained.

•Keep the buckle release button pointingup and away from the safety seat, withthe tongue between the child seat andthe release button, to prevent accidentalunbuckling.
•Place the vehicle seat upon which thechild seat will be installed in the uprightposition.
•Put the seatbelt in the automatic lockingmode. See Step 5. This vehicle does notrequire the use of a locking clip.

Note:The automatic locking mode isavailable on the front passenger and rearseats.
Note:Unlike the standard seatbelt, theinflatable seatbelt's unique lap portion locksthe child seat for installation. The ability forthe shoulder portion of the belt to movefreely is normal, even after the lap belt hasbeen put into the automatic locking mode.
Note:The lock-off device on some childrestraints may not accommodate theshoulder portion of the inflatable seatbelt.Follow all instructions provided by themanufacturer of the child restraint regardingthe necessary and proper use of the lock-offdevice. In some instances, these deviceshave been provided only for use in vehicleswith seatbelt systems that would otherwiserequire a locking clip.

9. Attach the tether strap (if the child seatis equipped).
10. Before placing the child in the seat,forcibly move the seat forward and backto make sure the seat is securely heldin place. To check this, grab the seat atthe belt path and attempt to move itside to side and forward and back.There should be no more than 1 inch(2.5 centimeters) of movement forproper installation.
We recommend checking with a NHTSACertified Child Passenger Safety Technicianto make certain the child restraint is properlyinstalled. In Canada, check with TransportCanada for referral to a Child Car Seat Clinic.
Using Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren (LATCH)
WARNINGS
Never attach two child safety seats tothe same anchor. In a collision, oneanchor may not be strong enough to holdtwo child safety seat attachments and maybreak, causing serious injury or death.
Depending on where you secure achild restraint, and depending on thechild restraint design, you may block accessto certain seatbelt buckle assemblies orLATCH lower anchors, rendering thosefeatures potentially unusable. To avoid riskof injury, occupants should only use seatingpositions where they are able to be properlyrestrained.
The LATCH system is composed of threevehicle anchor points: two lower anchorslocated where the seatback and seat cushionmeet (called the seat bight) and one toptether anchor located behind that seatingposition.
LATCH compatible child safety seats havetwo rigid or webbing mounted attachmentsthat connect to the two lower anchors at theLATCH equipped seating positions in yourvehicle. This type of attachment methodeliminates the need to use seatbelts to attachthe child seat, however the seatbelt can stillbe used to attach the child seat. Forforward-facing child seats, the top tetherstrap must also be attached to the propertop tether anchor, if a top tether strap hasbeen provided with your child seat.
