1. Place the child seat in the center of the seating position.

For some second row seats, you may need to recline the

seat and/or raise the head restraint to get a better fit. If

the rear seat can be moved forward and rearward in the

vehicle, you may wish to move it to its rear-most

position to make room for the child seat. You may also

move the front seat forward to allow more room for the

child seat.

2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor

to pass it through the belt path of the child restraint. Do

not twist the belt webbing in the belt path.

3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a

“click.”

4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight

against the child seat.

5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of

the belt until you have pulled all the seat belt webbing

out of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing to retract

back into the retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will

hear a clicking sound. This means the seat belt is now in

the Automatic Locking mode.

6. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is

locked, you should not be able to pull out any webbing.

If the retractor is not locked, repeat step 5.

7. Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to tighten the lap

portion around the child restraint while you push the

child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle

seat.

8. If the child restraint has a top tether strap and the

seating position has a top tether anchorage, connect the

tether strap to the anchorage and tighten the tether

strap. See the section “Installing Child Restraints Using

the Top Tether Anchorage” for directions to attach a

tether anchor.

9. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling

back and forth on the child seat at the belt path. It

should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any

direction.

Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the

belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
