CONTROLS AT A GLANCE

SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are
not properly buckled up. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other
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
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, ifavailable. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seats rather than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride 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 severely injured or killed. Any child riding in your
vehicle should be in a proper restraint for the child’s size.
Integrated Child Booster Seat
• The Integrated Child Booster Seat, located in each second-row passenger seat, isdesigned for children weighing between 48 and 85 lbs (22 and 39 kg) and between
47 in (119 cm) and 57 in (145 cm) tall.
• To position a child into the Integrated Child Booster Seat follow these steps: • Pull the release handle, located at the front of the seat cushion, forward torelease. Then, lift seat cushion up and push back to lock it in the booster seat
position.
WARNING!
Failure to comply with the following conditions could result in serious injury or
death:
• The swivel seat should be locked in the forward-facing position when using thebooster seat with the vehicle in motion.
• Be certain that the seat cushion is locked securely into position before using the seat. An improperly latched seat cushion could cause serious injury.
GETTING STARTED
10

• Place the child upright in the seat with their back firmly against the seatback.
• Grasp the latch plate and pull out the seat belt.
• Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the seat belt to goaround the child’s lap.
NOTE: The lap portion of the seat belt should be low on the hips and as snug as
possible.
• Once the seat belt is long enough to fit properly, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
• To remove the slack from the lap belt, pull upward on the shoulder portion of the seat belt and release by pushing the red button on the buckle.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Each vehicle, except commercial cargo vehicles, is equipped with the child restraintanchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
• Two LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed on all second-row seats and in the center position on all third row fold-in-floor seats.
• Second-row seats also feature tether strap anchorages, located in the rear surface of the seatback.
• In addition, all third row fold-in-floor seats are equipped with a child restraint tether anchor at the center seating position.
Installing The Lower Attachments:
• The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seatcushion where it meets the seatback.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower childrestraint attachment straps to ease the
installation.
NOTE: It is recommended to loosen the top
tether strap and route it loosely prior to
securing the lower anchors so the top tether
strap is not trapped between the vehicle seat
and child restraint.
• Attach the lower child restraint attachment straps to the vehicle’s lower anchor bars. Ensure that the lower attachment strap is firmly engaged and that the hook is
secure.
• Tighten the lower attachment strap while firmly pushing the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat. Remove all slack in the lower
attachment straps.

GETTING STARTED

Installing The Top Tether Strap (With Either Lower Anchors Or Vehicle
Seat Belt):
• Route the top tether strap under the adjustable head restraint between the steelposts.
• Provide enough slack for the tether strapto reach the tether anchor located near
the bottom of the seat back.
• Clip tether hook to tether anchor. Ensure that the hook is firmly engaged and
secure.
• Remove all slack and tighten tether strap according to child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
NOTE: The top tether strap is always to be
secured, regardless of if the child restraint is
installed with the lower anchors or the
vehicle seat belt.
WARNING!
Never place any child seat, booster seat, or infant carrier in the Swivel ’n Go seat
while it is in the rearward-facing position. The swivel seat should be locked in the
forward position when using any child seat, booster seat, or infant carriers, with
the vehicle in motion. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or even death.
WARNING!
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 theretractor 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.
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.

FRONT SEATS
WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement
of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly
adjusted, and you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the
vehicle is parked.

• Lift up on the adjusting bar located at thefront of the seat near the floor and release

WARNING!
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting
against your ch est. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be
severely injured or killed. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.
