passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others
in your vehicle are buckled up properly.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small childrenride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring
it.
WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so
great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and
others could be badly injured. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper
restraint for the child’s size.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraintanchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
Four Door
• The rear outboard seating positions of the four doorhave lower anchors and all three
rear seating positions have top tether anchors.

• Child seats with fixed lower attachments must be installed in the outboard positions only.Child seats with flexible lower attachments can be used in all three seating positions.
• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower
anchorage.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps andtether straps so that you can attach the hook
or connector to the lower and tether
anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the anchorage bars, pushing aside the
seat cover material. You will easily feel the
anchorage bars if you run your finger along
the intersection of the seatback and seat
cushion surfaces.
• The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback using the most direct path. For the outboard seating positions, route the tether underneath the
head rest and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of the seat.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the childrestraint rearward and downward into the
seat.
Two Door
•The two door model can accommodate flexible LATCH-compatible child seats in the
two outboard seating positions only.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps andtether straps so that you can attach the hook
or connector to the lower and tether

• The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback usingthe most direct path. For the outboard seating positions, route the tether underneath the
head rest and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of the seat.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the childrestraint rearward and downward into the
seat.
WARNING!
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child
restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child
seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to
route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch plate into the
buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion
around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt
occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top tether strap. The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the
seatback using the most direct path. For the outboard seating positions, route the tether
underneath the head rest and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of
the seat.
WARNING!
Rearward-facing child seats must NEVERbe used in the front seat of a vehicle with
a front passenger airbag. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death
to infants in this position.
