Securing a Child Restraint with Lap/
shoulder Belt
When not using the LATCH system, all
child restraints must be secured to a
vehicle rear seat with the lap part of a
lap/shoulder belt.
WARNING
ALWAYS place a rear-facing child
restraint in the rear seat of the vehicle.
Placing a rear-facing child restraint in
the front seat can result in serious injury
or death if the child restraint is struck
by an inflating air bag.

Automatic locking mode
Since all passenger seat belts move
fr
eely under normal conditions and
only lock under extreme or emergency
conditions (emergency locking mode),
you must manually pull the seat belt all
the way out to shift the retractor to the
“Automatic Locking” mode to secure a
child restraint.
The “Automatic Locking” mode will
help prevent the normal movement of
the child in the vehicle from causing
the seat belt to loosen and compromise
the child restraint system. To secure a
child restraint system, use the following
procedure.
To install a child restraint system on the
rear seats, do the following:
1. Place the child restraint system on a rear seat and route the lap/
shoulder belt around or through the
child restraint, following the restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
Be sure the seat belt webbing is not
twisted.
Make sure to insert the belt into the
guide(1).
NOTICE
When using the rear center seat belt,
you should also refer to the “Rear Seat
Belt – Passenger’s 3-point system”
section in this chapter.
