•You are required by law to properly usesafety seats for infants and toddlers inthe United States and Canada.
•Many states and provinces require thatsmall children use approved boosterseats until they reach age eight, a heightof 4 feet 9 inches (1.45 meters) tall, or80 lb (36 kg). Check your local and stateor provincial laws for specificrequirements about the safety of childrenin your vehicle.
•When possible, always properly restrainchildren 12 years of age and under in arear seating position of your vehicle.Accident statistics suggest that childrenare safer when properly restrained in therear seating positions than in a frontseating position. See Front PassengerSensing System (page 50).
INSTALLING CHILD RESTRAINTS
Child Seats
Use a child safety seat (sometimes called aninfant carrier, convertible seat, or toddlerseat) for infants, toddlers, or childrenweighing 40 pounds (18 kilograms) or less(generally age four or younger).
Using Lap and Shoulder Belts
WARNINGS
Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild restraint. Never place arear-facing child restraint in front of an activeairbag. If you must use a forward-facing childrestraint in the front seat, move the seat uponwhich the child restraint is installed all theway back.
Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild restraint. Properly restrainchildren 12 and under in the rear seatwhenever possible.
Depending on where you secure achild restraint, and depending on thechild restraint design, you may block accessto certain seatbelt buckle assemblies andLATCH lower anchors, rendering thosefeatures potentially unusable. To avoid riskof injury, make sure occupants only useseating positions where they are able to beproperly restrained.

5. To put the retractor in the automaticlocking mode, grasp the lap portion ofthe inflatable seatbelt and pull upwarduntil you pull all of the belt out.
Note:The automatic locking mode isavailable on the front passenger and rearseats.
Note:Unlike the standard seatbelt, theinflatable seatbelt's unique lap portion locksthe child restraint for installation. The abilityfor the shoulder portion of the belt to movefreely is normal, even after the lap belt hasbeen put into the automatic locking mode.
Note:The lock-off device on some childrestraints may not accommodate theshoulder portion of the inflatable seatbelt.Follow all instructions provided by themanufacturer of the child restraint regardingthe necessary and proper use of the lock-offdevice. In some instances, these deviceshave been provided only for use in vehicleswith seatbelt systems that would otherwiserequire a locking clip.

Remove remaining slack from the belt.Force the seat down with extra weight,for example, by pressing down orkneeling on the child restraint whilepulling down on the lap belt in order toforce slack from the belt. This isnecessary to remove the remaining slackthat will exist once the extra weight ofthe child is added to the child restraint.It also helps to achieve the propersnugness of the child restraint to yourvehicle. Sometimes, a slight lean towardthe buckle will additionally help toremove remaining slack from the belt.

9. Attach the tether strap (if the childrestraint is equipped).
10. Before placing the child in the seat,forcibly move the seat forward and backto make sure the seat is securely heldin place. To check this, grab the seat atthe belt path and attempt to move itside to side and forward and back.There should be no more than 1 in(2.5 cm) of movement for properinstallation.
We recommend checking with a NHTSACertified Child Passenger Safety Technicianto make certain the child restraint is properlyinstalled. In Canada, check with TransportCanada for referral to a Child Car Seat Clinic.
Using Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren (LATCH)
WARNINGS
Do not attach two child safety restraintsto the same anchor. In a crash, oneanchor may not be strong enough to holdtwo child safety restraint attachments andmay break, causing serious injury or death.
Depending on where you secure achild restraint, and depending on thechild restraint design, you may block accessto certain seatbelt buckle assemblies andLATCH lower anchors, rendering thosefeatures potentially unusable. To avoid riskof injury, make sure occupants only useseating positions where they are able to beproperly restrained.
The LATCH system is composed of threevehicle anchor points: two lower anchorswhere the seatback and seat cushion meet(called the seat bight) and one top tetheranchor behind that seating position.
LATCH compatible child safety seats havetwo rigid or webbing mounted attachmentsthat connect to the two lower anchors at theLATCH equipped seating positions in yourvehicle. This type of attachment methodeliminates the need to use seatbelts to attachthe child restraint. However, you can still usethe seatbelt to attach the child restraint. Forforward-facing child restraints, the top tetherstrap must also be attached to the propertop tether anchor if a top tether strap hasbeen provided with your child restraint.

Your vehicle has LATCH lower anchors forchild restraint installation at the seatingpositions marked with the child restraintsymbol.
The LATCH anchors are at the rear sectionof the rear seat between the cushion andseatback below the symbols as shown.Follow the child restraint manufacturer'sinstructions to properly install a child restraintwith LATCH attachments. Follow theinstructions on attaching child safety seatswith tether straps.
Attach LATCH lower attachments of the childrestraint only to the anchors shown.
Use of Inboard Lower Anchors from theOutboard Seating Positions (Center SeatingUse)
WARNING
The standardized spacing for LATCHlower anchors is 11 in (280 mm) centerto center. Do not use LATCH lower anchorsfor the center seating position unless thechild restraint manufacturer's instructionspermit and specify using anchors spaced atleast as far apart as those in this vehicle.
The lower anchors at the center of thesecond row rear seat are spaced 18 in(46 cm) apart. You cannot install a childrestraint with rigid LATCH attachments at thecenter seating position. You can only useLATCH compatible child restraints (withattachments on belt webbing) at this seatingposition provided that the child restraintmanufacturer's instructions permit use withthe anchor spacing stated. Do not attach achild restraint to any lower anchor if anadjacent child restraint is attached to thatanchor.
Each time you use the safety seat, check thatthe seat is properly attached to the loweranchors and tether anchor, if applicable. Tugthe child restraint from side to side andforward and back where it is secured to yourvehicle. The seat should move less than 1 in(2.5 cm) when you do this for a properinstallation.
If the safety seat is not anchored properly,the risk of a child being injured in a crashgreatly increases.

Combining Seatbelt and LATCH LowerAnchors for Attaching Child Safety Seats
When used in combination, either theseatbelt or the LATCH lower anchors maybe attached first, provided a properinstallation is achieved. Attach the tetherstrap afterward, if included with the childrestraint.
Using Tether Straps
Many forward-facing child safetyseats include a tether strap whichextends from the back of the childsafety seat and hooks to an anchoring pointcalled the top tether anchor. Tether strapsare available as an accessory for many oldersafety seats.
Contact the manufacturer of your childrestraint for information about ordering atether strap, or to obtain a longer tether strapif the tether strap on your safety seat doesnot reach the appropriate top tether anchorin your vehicle.
Once you install the child safety seat usingeither the seatbelt, the lower anchors of theLATCH system, or both, you can attach thetop tether strap.
The tether strap anchors in your vehicle arein the following positions (shown from topview):
Perform the following steps to install a childsafety seat with tether anchors:
Note:If you install a child restraint with rigidLATCH attachments, do not tighten thetether strap enough to lift the child restraintoff your vehicle seat cushion when the childis seated in it. Keep the tether strap just snugwithout lifting the front of the child restraint.Keeping the child restraint just touching yourvehicle seat gives the best protection in asevere crash.
1. Route the child safety seat tether strapover the back of the seat. For outboardseating positions, route the tether strapunder the head restraint and betweenthe head restraint posts. For the centerseating positions, route the tether strapover the top of the head restraint. Ifneeded, the head restraints can also beremoved.

2. Locate the correct anchor for theselected seating position, then open thetether anchor cover.
3. Clip the tether strap to the anchor asshown.
4.Tighten the child safety seat tether strapaccording to the manufacturer'sinstructions.
If your child restraint system has a tetherstrap, and the child restraint manufacturerrecommends its use, we also recommend itsuse.
BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING
Never place, or allow a child to place,the shoulder belt under a child's armor behind the back because it reduces theprotection for the upper part of the body andmay increase the risk of injury or death in acrash.
Note:Some booster seat safety belt guidesmay not accommodate the shoulder portionof the inflatable safety belt.
Use a belt-positioning booster seat forchildren who have outgrown or no longerproperly fit in a child safety seat (generallychildren who are less than 4 feet 9 inches(1.45 meters) tall, are greater than age four(4) and less than age twelve (12), andbetween 40 pounds (18 kilograms) and 80pounds (36 kilograms) and upward to 100
pounds (45 kilograms) if recommended byyour child restraint manufacturer). Many stateand provincial laws require that children useapproved booster seats until they reach ageeight, a height of 4 feet 9 inches (1.45 meters)tall, or 80 pounds (36 kilograms).
Booster seats should be used until you cananswer YES to ALL of these questions whenseated without a booster seat:
•Can the child sit all the way back againsttheir vehicle seat back with knees bentcomfortably at the edge of the seatcushion?
•Can the child sit without slouching?
