WARNING!(Continued)
• Being too close to the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain
and/or Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause
you to be severely injured or killed.
• Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you
are involved in another collision, the air bags will not be in place to
protect you.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized
dealer immediately.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear
seat, if available. 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.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child
restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower
Anchors and Tether for CHildren. LATCH child restraint anchorage
systems are installed at all three rear seating positions.
• The rear outboard seating positions have 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.
•NEVERinstall LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a
common lower anchorage.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on
the lower straps and tether 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
seatcover material.
• The tether strap should be routed under the center of the head restraint
and attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback.

• Tighten all three straps as you
push the child restraint rearward
and downward into the seat.
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 routed over the
center top of the head restraint.
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.
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages
can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be
severely 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.
• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of
a vehicle with a front passenger air bag. An air bag deployment
could cause infants in this position to be severely injured or killed.
