Securing A Child Restraint In A Rear Seat Position - Pontiac Vibe 2007 Owner's Manual

Securing a Child Restraint in a
Rear Seat Position
If your child restraint has the LATCH system, see
Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children
(LATCH) on page 49.
If your child restraint does not have the LATCH
system, 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. 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. If the buckle does not click,
check to be sure that you are using the
correct buckle. The buckle for the center
rear passenger position has the word
CENTER on it.
Make sure the release button is positioned so
you would be able to unbuckle the safety
belt quickly if you ever had to.
