5. Return the 2nd row seat to a seatingposition by raising the 2nd row seat-
backs to an upright position. Make
sure the seatback is locked in position.
CAUTION
When folding the 2nd row seat for
maximum cargo hauling, be sure
that cargo does not contact the
center console of the captain’s seat
(if so equipped) to avoid possible
damage to the console.
WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement
the other vehicle safety systems.
They may provide additional protec-
tion against injury in certain rear end
collisions. Adjustable head re-
straints/headrests 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/head-
rest stalks or remove the head re-
straint/headrest. Do not use the seat
if the head restraint/headrest has
been removed. If the head restraint/
headrest was removed, reinstall 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 colli-
sion.
HEAD RESTRAINTS/HEADRESTS
JVR0403X
The illustration shows the seating posi-
tions equipped with head restraint/head-
rest.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a head restraint.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a headrest.
. Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be inte-
grated, 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/
headrests 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 re-
installed and locked in place before riding in that designated seating posi-
tion.

chors. Check to make sure the LATCH
attachment is properly attached to
the lower anchors.

3. For child restraints that are equipped
with webbing-mounted attachments,
remove any additional slack from the
anchor attachments. 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.

3. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt isfully extended. At this time, the seat
belt retractor is in the Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) mode (child
restraint mode). It reverts to the
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
mode when the seat belt is fully
retracted.

5. Remove any additional slack from the seat belt; press downward and rear-
ward firmly in the center of the child
restraint to compress the vehicle seat
cushion and seatback while pulling up
on the seat belt.
SSS0658
Rear-facing — step 6
6. After attaching the child restraint, testit 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 check to
see if the belt holds the restraint in
place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the seat belt as necessary, or
put the restraint in another seat and
test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles.
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.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT INSTALLATION USING
LATCH
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the
“Child safety” and “Child restraints” sec-
tions 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 re-
straint. Be sure to follow the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
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 man-
ufacturer’s instructions.
JVR0637X
Forward-facing web-mounted — step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor at- tachments to the LATCH lower an-
chors. 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” (P.1-46). 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.
