5. To tighten the belt, push down

on the child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint, it
may be helpful to use your knee
to push down on the child
restraint as 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 4 and 5.

6. If the child restraint has a top

tether, follow the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions
regarding the use of the top
tether. See

Lower Anchors and

Tethers for Children (LATCH
System) on page 3

49

for more

information.

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
safety 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 safety belt and
let it return to the stowed position.
If the top tether is attached to a top
tether anchor, disconnect it. If the
head restraint was removed,
reinstall it before the seating
position is used. See

Head

Restraint Removal and
Reinstallation

under

Lower

Anchors and Tethers for Children
(LATCH System) on page 3

for

additional information on installing
the head restraint properly.

Securing Child Restraints
(Front Passenger Seat)

This vehicle has airbags. A rear
seat is a safer place to secure a

.

In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system which
is designed to turn off the right
front passenger frontal airbag and
seat

mounted side impact airbag

under certain conditions. See

Passenger Sensing System on
page 3
