1-16Safety Ð Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
front passenger seat.
Ð Keep seatbacks as upright as possible after fitting the child
restraint.
Ð Infants and children should al- ways be placed in an appropri-
ate child restraint while in the
vehicle.
. When the child restraint is not in
use, keep it secured with the LATCH
system or a seat belt. In a sudden
stop or collision, loose objects can
injure occupants or damage the
vehicle.
CAUTION
A child restraint in a closed vehicle can
become very hot. Check the seating
surface and buckles before placing a
child in the child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal child
restraint anchor system, referred to as the
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHil-
dren) system. Some child restraints include rigid
or webbing-mounted attachments that can be connected to these anchors. (See
ªLower
Anchors and Tethers for CHildren System
(LATCH)º page 1-17.)
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for
infants and small children of various sizes. When
selecting any child restraint, keep the following
points in mind:
. Choose only a restraint with a label certifying
that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
. Check the child restraint in your vehicle to
be sure it is compatible with the vehicle's
seat and seat belt system.
. If the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the child restraint is compatible with
your child. Choose a child restraint that is
designed for your child's height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
. If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is less than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , you
may use either the LATCH anchors or the
seat belt to install the child restraint (not
both at the same time) . .
If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use
the vehicle's seat belt (not the lower
anchors) to install the child restraint.
. Be sure to follow the child restraint manu-
facturer's instructions for installation.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated. Canadian law requires the
top tether strap on forward-facing child
restraints be secured to the designated
anchor point on the vehicle.

3-18Pre-driving checks and adjustments
CAUTION
.Do not insert hands, clothing, tools
or other items into the engine
compartment while the engine is
running.
. Do not touch the exhaust system
parts, radiator or other hot parts
until the engine and the parts have
cooled.
NOTICE
Do not open the hood while the wiper
arms are lifted away from the wind-
shield. The hood and wipers will be
damaged.CLOSING THE HOOD
1. While supporting the hood, store the stay to
the original position.
2. Slowly lower the hood. When it is at a height of 1 ft (30 cm) or higher, drop the hood and
make sure that both sides of the hood
securely lock in place.
WARNING
.Make sure the hood is completely
closed and latched before driving.
Failure to do so could cause the
hood to open and result in an accident.
. Be sure to check that the hood is
securely closed before driving. If
both sides of the hood are not
locked in place, the hood may open
during driving, possibly causing an
accident.
CAUTION
When closing the hood, lower it slowly
so that hands or other items do not get
caught.
NOTE:
Because the hood of this vehicle requires
more force to close than that for other
vehicles, the hood will be difficult to close
if you lower it all the way and then attempt
to press it closed. Be sure to drop the hood
from a height of approximately 1 ft (30 cm)
and be sure that both sides securely lock
in place.
