not obscured by the child restraint.
There must not be direct contact of
the child restraint to the push

regarding the use of the top tether.
SeeLower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 079.
7. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make sure it is securely
held in place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat 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.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt and let
it return to the stowed position. If the
top tether is attached to a top tether
anchor, disconnect it.
Securing Child Restraints
(With the Seat Belt in the
Front Seat)
This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is
a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. See
Where to Put the Restraint 078.
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
067 and
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0114
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 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.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
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.
Secure rear-facing child restraints
in a rear seat, even if the airbag is
off. If you secure a forward-facing
child restraint in the front outboard
passenger seat, always move the
seat as far back as it will go. It is
better to secure the child restraint
in a rear seat.
SeePassenger Sensing System 067
for additional information.
If the child restraint uses a top tether,
see Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 079 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 tether must
be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have a
top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
When using the lap-shoulder belt to
secure the 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. Move
the seat upward or the seatback to
an upright position, if needed, to
get a tight installation of the child
restraint. The push button used to
release the latch plate must be
visible and not obscured by the
child restraint. There must not be
direct contact of the child restraint
to the push button.
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. See
Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator 0114.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle seat belt through or around
the child restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
Tilt the latch plate to adjust the
belt if needed.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckleuntil it clicks.
Position the release button on the
buckle, away from the child
restraint, so that the seat belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.

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 Steps 5 and 6. 7. Before placing a child in the child
restraint, make sure it is securely
held in place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat 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.
If a child restraint has been installed
and the ON indicator is lit, see “If the
On Indicator Is Lit for a Child
Restraint ”under Passenger Sensing
System 067.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt and let
it return to the stowed position.
