WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined. This
can be dangerous. The shoulder belt
will not be against your body. In an
accident, you could be thrown into it
and receive neck or other serious
injuries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
.For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sitwell back in the seat with both feet
on the floor and adjust the seat
properly. See “PRECAUTIONS ON
SEAT BELT USAGE” later in this
section.
.Do not adjust the driver’s seat while
driving so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation. The seat
may move suddenly and could
cause loss of control of the vehicle.
.After adjustment, gently rock in the
seat to make sure it is securely
locked.
.Do not leave children unattendedinside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries and/or da-
mages.

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.
Try to tug it forward and check to
see if the belt holds the restraint in
place. The child restraint should not
move more than 1 in (25 mm) . If the
restraint is not secure, tighten the
belt as necessary, or put the re-
straint in another seat and test it
again. You may need to try a differ-
ent 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. For
details, see “Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren SYSTEM (LATCH)” later in this sec-
tion.
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used.
(See “CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS” later in this section.)
In general, child restraints are also designed to
be installed with the lap portion of a lap/shoulder
seat belt.
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 VehicleSafety 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.
Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren
SYSTEM (LATCH)
Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor
points that are used with Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren System (LATCH) compa-
tible child restraints. This system may also be
referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible
system. With this system, you do not have to use
a vehicle seat belt to secure the child restraint.
The LATCH anchor points are provided to install
child restraints in the rear outboard seating
