Securing A Child Restraint In A Rear Seat Position - Chevrolet Pontiac Wave 2006 Owner's Manual

Securing a Child Restraint in a
Rear Seat Position
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH) on page 1-42.
If your child restraint does not have the LATCH system,
you will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the child
restraint. 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.
If you need to install more than one child restraint in the
rear seat, be sure to read Where to Put the Restraint
on page 1-40. There is not room for three child restraints
in the rear seat, but you can install two child restraints,
one in each rear outside seating position.
1. Put the child restraint on the seat.
2. 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.
3. Buckle the belt. Be sure the latch plate clicks when
you put it into the buckle. This means you are using
the correct buckle. Also, make sure the release
button is positioned so you would be able to
unbuckle the safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
