CAUTION:
{
If the airbag readiness light in the instrument
panel cluster ever comes on when you have
turned off the airbag, it means that something
may be wrong with the airbag system. The
right front passenger's airbag could inflate
even though the switch is off. If this ever
happens, have the vehicle serviced promptly.
Until you have the vehicle serviced, do not let
anyone whom the national government has
identified as a member of a passenger airbag
risk group sit in the right front passenger's
position (for example, do not secure a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front
passenger's seat). See Airbag Off Switch on
page 1-69.
If your vehicle is an extended cab and your child
restraint is equipped with the LATCH system, see Lower
Anchorages and Top Tethers for Children (LATCH
System) on page 1-44. See Top Strap on page 1-40 if
your child restraint has one.
1-56
You will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow the
instructions that came with the child restraint. Secure
the child in the child restraint when and as the
instructions say.
1. Your vehicle has a right front passenger's frontal
airbag. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-69.
If your child restraint is forward-facing, move the
seat as far back as it will go before securing
the restraint in this seat. See Manual Seats on
page 1-3 or Power Seats on page 1-4. If you need
to use a rear-facing child restraint in this seat,
make sure the airbag is off once the child restraint
has been installed.
When the airbag off switch has turned off the right
front passenger's frontal airbag, the off indicator
in the airbag off light should light and stay lit when
you turn the ignition to RUN or START. See
Airbag Off Light on page 3-34.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle's safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
