Safety Belts
This section of the manual describes
how to use safety belts properly.
It also describes some things not to
do with safety belts.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride where a
safety belt cannot be worn properly.
In a crash, if you or your
passenger(s) are not wearing safety
belts, injuries can be much worse
than if you are wearing safety belts.
You can be seriously injured or
killed by hitting things inside the
vehicle harder or by being ejected
from the vehicle. In addition,
anyone who is not buckled up can
strike other passengers in the
vehicle.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in
a cargo area, inside or outside of a
vehicle. In a collision, passengers
riding in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed. Do
not allow passengers to ride in any

tightened around a child’s neck, the
only way to loosen the belt is to
cut it.
Buckle any unused safety belts
behind the child restraint so
children cannot reach them. Pull
the shoulder belt all the way out of
the retractor to set the lock, and
tighten the belt behind the child
restraint after the child restraint
has been installed.
Caution
Do not let the LATCH attachments
rub against the vehicle’s safety
belts. This may damage these parts.
If necessary, move buckled safety
belts to avoid rubbing the LATCH
attachments.

buckled. This could damage the
safety belt or the seat. Unbuckle
and return the safety belt to its
stowed position, before folding
the seat.
If you need to secure more than one
child restraint in the rear seat, see
Where to Put the Restraint 086.
You cannot secure three child
restraints using the LATCH anchors in
the rear seat at the same time, but
you can install two of them. If you
want to do this, install one LATCH
child restraint in the right rear seating
position, and install the other one
either in the left rear seating position
or in the center seating position.
If you need to install child restraints
in both the center and left rear seating
positions, the one in the center
seating position will need to be
secured using the vehicle safety belts
instead of the LATCH anchors.
Refer to the following illustration to
learn which anchors to use.
There are five lower LATCH anchors
in the rear seat.
. Use anchors 1 and 2 when
installing a child restraint using
LATCH in the right rear seating
position.
. Use anchors 3 and 4 when
installing a child restraint using
LATCH in the center rear seating
position.
. Use anchors 4 and 5 when
installing a child restraint using
LATCH in the left rear seating
position.
