78 SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
.If the position you are
using has an adjustable
head restraint and you are
using a dual tether, raise
the head restraint and
route the tether under the
head restraint and in
between the head restraint
posts.
3. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make sure it is securely
held in place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the LATCH path
and attempt to move it side to side
and back and forth. There should
be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement for proper installation.
Replacing LATCH System
Parts After a Crash
{Warning
A crash can damage the LATCH
system in the vehicle. A damaged
LATCH system may not properly
secure the child restraint, resulting
in serious injury or even death in a
crash. To help make sure the
LATCH system is working properly
after a crash, see your dealer to
have the system inspected and any
necessary replacements made as
soon as possible.
If the vehicle has the LATCH system
and it was being used during a crash,
new LATCH system parts may be
needed.
New parts and repairs may be
necessary even if the LATCH system
was not being used at the time of the
crash.
Securing Child Restraints
(With the Seat Belt in the
Rear Seat)
When securing a child restraint with
the seat belts in a rear seat position,
study the instructions that came with
the child restraint to make sure it is
compatible with this vehicle.
If the child restraint has the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchors and Tethers
for Children (LATCH System) 072 for
how and where to install the child
restraint using LATCH. If a child
restraint is secured in the vehicle
using a seat belt and it uses a top
tether, see Lower Anchors and Tethers
for Children (LATCH System) 072 for
top tether anchor locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor if
a national or local law requires that
the top tether be anchored, or if the
instructions that come with the child
restraint say that the top tether must
be anchored.

SEATS AND RESTRAINTS 79
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have a
top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
If the child restraint or vehicle seat
position does not have the LATCH
system, you will be using the seat belt
to secure the child restraint. Be sure
to follow the instructions that came
with the child restraint.
If more than one child restraint needs
to be installed in the rear seat, be sure
to readWhere to Put the Restraint 071.
1. Put the child restraint on the seat. If the head restraint interferes with
the proper installation of the child
restraint, see your dealer for
assistance.
2. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle seat belt through or around
the child restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckleuntil it clicks.
Position the release button on the
buckle, away from the child
restraint, so that the seat belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.4. Pull the shoulder belt all the wayout of the retractor to set the lock.
When the retractor lock is set, the
belt can be tightened but not
pulled out of the retractor.

5. To tighten the belt, push down onthe child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint, it
may be helpful to use your knee to
push down on the child restraint as
you tighten the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the retractor
is locked. If the retractor is not
locked, repeat Steps 4 and 5.
6. If the child restraint has a top tether, follow the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions regarding the use of the top tether.
See
Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 072.
7. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make sure it is securely
held in place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat belt path
and attempt to move it side to side
and back and forth. When the child
restraint is properly installed, there
should be no more than
2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt and let
it return to the stowed position. If the
top tether is attached to a top tether
anchor, disconnect it.
Securing Child Restraints
(With the Seat Belt in the
Front Seat)
This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is
a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. See
Where to Put the Restraint 071.
In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system which is
designed to turn off the front outboard passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag under certain conditions.
See
Passenger Sensing System 060 and
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator 0102
for more information, including
important safety information.
Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front. This is because the risk to
the rear-facing child is so great if the
airbag deploys.
{Warning
A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured or
killed if the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag inflates.
This is because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag.
A child in a forward-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured or
killed if the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag inflates
and the passenger seat is in a
forward position.

SEATS AND RESTRAINTS 81
Warning (Continued)
Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger airbag(s), no
system is fail-safe. No one can
guarantee that an airbag will not
deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though the
airbag(s) are off.
Secure rear-facing child restraints
in a rear seat, even if the airbag(s)
are off. If you secure a
forward-facing child restraint in the
front outboard passenger seat,
always move the seat as far back as
it will go. It is better to secure the
child restraint in a rear seat.
SeePassenger Sensing System 060
for additional information.
If the child restraint uses a top tether,
see Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) 072 for top
tether anchor locations.
Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor if
a national or local law requires that the top tether be anchored, or if the
instructions that come with the child
restraint say that the top tether must
be anchored.
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have a
top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
When using the lap-shoulder belt to
secure the child restraint in this
position, follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint and the
following instructions:
1. Move the seat as far back as it will go before securing the
forward-facing child restraint. Move
the seat upward or the seatback to
an upright position, if needed, to
get a tight installation of the child
restraint.
When the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
and knee airbag, the OFF indicator
on the passenger airbag status
indicator should light and stay lit
when you start the vehicle. See
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
0102. 2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the
lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle seat belt through or around
the child restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckleuntil it clicks.
Position the release button on the
buckle, away from the child
restraint, so that the seat belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.

5. Pull the shoulder belt all the wayout of the retractor to set the lock.
When the retractor lock is set, the
belt can be tightened but not
pulled out of the retractor.
It may be necessary to slide the
adjustable stop along the webbing
toward the outboard anchor to
fully tighten the seat belt around
the child restraint. While a child
restraint is installed, the adjustable
stop should be positioned on the
portion of the webbing that does
not interact with the child
restraint.6. To tighten the belt, push down onthe child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint, it
may be helpful to use your knee to
push down on the child restraint as
you tighten the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the retractor
is locked. If the retractor is not
locked, repeat Steps 5 and 6. 7. Before placing a child in the child
restraint, make sure it is securely
held in place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat belt path
and attempt to move it side to side
and back and forth. When the child
restraint is properly installed, there
should be no more than
2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.
If the airbags are off, the OFF
indicator in the passenger airbag
status indicator will come on and stay
on when the vehicle is started.
If a child restraint has been installed
and the ON indicator is lit, see “If the
On Indicator Is Lit for a Child
Restraint ”under Passenger Sensing
System 060.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt and let
it return to the stowed position.
