Before installing a child-restraint system,
make sure the passenger air bag

Switch on page 2-32.

1. Make sure to remove articles from

behind the passenger seat that would
prevent the seat from sliding back fully,
and then slide the seat as far back as
possible to insert the LATCH lower
anchors between the seat bottom and
the seatback.

2. Expand the area between the seat

bottom and the seatback slightly to
verify the locations of the LATCH
lower anchors.

NOTE

The markings above the LATCH lower anchors

anchors for the attachment of a child-restraint
system.

3. Secure the child-restraint system using

BOTH LATCH lower anchors,
following the child-restraint system
manufacturer's instruction, however if
it uses an upper tether, it may not be
mounted properly in this vehicle as
there is no safe way to anchor the
tether. Confirm whether the child-
restraint system can be used with seat
belts by reading the child-restraint
system manufacturer's instructions.
