Safe Driving1. Place the child seat on the vehicle seat.
2. Route the seat belt through the child seat 
according to the seat manufacturer’s 
instructions, and insert  the latch plate into 
the buckle.
u Insert the latch plate fully until it clicks.
3. Slowly pull the shoulder part of the belt all 
the way out until it stops. This activates the 
lockable retractor.
4. Let the seat belt completely wind up into 
the retractor, then try to pull it out to make 
sure the retractor is locked.
u If you are able to pull the shoulder belt 
out, the lockable retractor is not 
activated. Pull the seat belt all the way 
out, and repeat steps 2 – 4.
5. Grab the shoulder part of the seat belt near 
the buckle, and pull up to remove any slack 
from the lap part of the belt.
u When doing this, place your weight on 
the child seat and push it into the vehicle 
seat.

Safe DrivingA tether anchorage point is provided behind 
each rear seating position.  A child seat that is 
installed with a seat belt and comes with a 
tether can use the tether for additional 
security.
1. Locate the appropriate tether anchorage 
point and lift the cover.
2. Raise the head restraint to its highest 
position, then route the tether strap 
through the head restraint legs. Make sure 
the strap is not twisted.
3. Secure the tether strap hook onto the 
anchor.
4. Tighten the tether strap  as instructed by the 
child seat manufacturer.
■Adding Security with a Tether1 Adding Security with a Tether
Since a tether can provide  additional security to the 
lap/shoulder seat belt in stallation, we recommend 
using a tether whenever one is available.
If you place the child seat  in a back seating position, 
make sure to remove the head restraint before 
securing the child seat.

Safety of Larger Children
The following pages give instructions on how  to check proper seat belt fit, what kind 
of booster seat to use if one is needed, and important precautions for a child who 
must sit in front.
When a child is too big for a  child seat, secure the child in a rear seat using the lap/
shoulder seat belt. Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then answer the 
following questions.
■Checklist
• Do the child's knees bend comfortably over 
the edge of the seat?
• Does the shoulder belt  cross between the 
child's neck and arm?
• Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as 
possible, touching the child's thighs?
• Will the child be able to stay seated like this 
for the whole trip?
If you answer yes to all thes e questions, the child is read y to wear the lap/shoulder 
seat belt correctly. If you answer no to  any question, the child needs to ride on a 
booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat.
■Protecting Larger Children
■Checking Seat Belt Fit
1 Safety of Larger Children
3WARNING
Allowing a child age 12 or under to sit in 
front can result in injury or death if the 
passenger's front airbag inflates.
If a larger child must ri de in front, move the 
vehicle seat as far to the rear as possible, 
have the child sit up properly and wear the 
seat belt properly, using a booster seat if 
needed.

Safe DrivingIf a lap/shoulder seat belt cannot be used 
properly, position the child in a booster seat in 
a rear seating position.  For the child's safety, 
check that the child meets the booster seat 
manufacturer's recommendations.
Your vehicle has a rear seat where children can be properly restrained. If you ever 
have to carry a group of children,  and a child must ride in front:
• Make sure you read and fully understand  the instructions and safety information 
in this manual.
• Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible.
• Have the child sit upright and well back in the seat.
• Check that the seat belt is properly positi oned so that the child is secure in the 
seat.
■Monitoring child passengers
We strongly recommend that you keep an ey e on child passengers. Even older, more 
mature children sometimes need to be remi nded to fasten their seat belts and sit up 
properly.
■Booster Seats1 Booster Seats
When installing a booster seat, make sure to read the 
instructions that came with it, and install the seat 
accordingly.
There are high- and low-type  booster seats. Choose a 
booster seat that allows the child to wear the seat 
belt correctly.
Some U.S. states and  Canadian provinces and 
territories require  children to use a booster seat until 
they reach a given age or  weight (e.g. 6 years or 60 
lbs). Be sure to check current laws in the state or 
province, or territory where you intend to drive.
