7. 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 6 and 7.

9. 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

s seat 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

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

.

In addition, the vehicle has a passenger
sensing system which is designed to turn off
the front outboard passenger's frontal airbag
under certain conditions. See

Passenger

Sensing System

and

for

more information, including important
safety information.

Never put a rear-facing child restraint 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.
