loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses.
. Adjustable seatbacks should be
positioned to fit the child restraint,
but as upright as possible.
. After attaching the child restraint,
test it before you place the child in
it. Push it from side to side while
holding the seat near the LATCH
attachment or by the seat belt path.
The child restraint should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm) from side
to side. Try to tug it forward and
check to see if the belt holds the
restraint in place. If the restraint is
not secure, tighten the belt as
necessary, or put the restraint in
another seat and test it again. You
may need to try a different child
restraint. Not all child restraints fit
in all types of vehicles.
. When your child restraint is not in
use, keep it secured with the LATCH
System or a seat belt to prevent it
from being thrown around in case of
a sudden stop or accident.
CAUTION
Remember that a child restraint left in a
closed vehicle can become very hot.
Check the seating surface and buckles
before placing your child in the child
restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal child
restraint lower anchor system, referred to as the
Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren System
or LATCH. Some child restraints include two
rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can
be connected to these lower anchors.
(
“CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH” page 1-17)
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used. In
general, child restraints are also designed to be
installed with the lap portion of a lap/shoulder
seat belt. (
“CHILD RESTRAINT INSTAL-
LATION USING THE SEAT BELTS” page 1-21)
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for
infants and small children of various sizes. When
selecting any child restraint, keep the following
points in mind:
. Choose only a restraint with a label certifying
that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213. .
Check the child restraint in your vehicle to
be sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s
seat and seat belt system.
. If the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the child restraint is compatible with
your child. Choose a child restraint that is
designed for your child’s height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated. Canadian law requires the
top tether strap on front-facing child
restraints be secured to the designated
anchor point on the vehicle.

arms are lifted away from the wind-
shield. The hood and wipers will be
damaged.
CLOSING THE HOOD1. While supporting the hood, store the stay to
the original position.
2. Slowly lower the hood. When it is at a height of 1 ft (30 cm) or higher, drop the hood and
make sure that both sides of the hood
securely lock in place.
WARNING
.Make sure the hood is completely
closed and latched before driving.
Failure to do so could cause the
hood to open and result in an
accident. .
Be sure to check that the hood is
securely closed before driving. If
both sides of the hood are not
locked in place, the hood may open
during driving, possibly causing an
accident.
CAUTION
When closing the hood, lower it slowly
so that hands or other items do not get
caught.NOTE:Because the hood of this vehicle requires
more force to close than that for other
vehicles, the hood will be difficult to close
if you lower it all the way and then attempt
to press it closed. Be sure to drop the hood
from a height of approximately 1 ft (30 cm)
and be sure that both sides securely lock
in place.
