Seats and Restraints
3. Insert the headrest posts into the
holes on the front of the
passenger side seat cushion to
install the seat cushion
extension. The notch on the post
should face the passenger side
of the vehicle. Try to move the
headrest to make sure it is
locked in place.
4. Put the child restraint on
the seat.
When installing a rear-facing
child restraint, move the front
seat all the way forward and tilt
the seatback forward to properly
install the child restraint per the
child restraint manufacturer
instructions. See Seat
Adjustment on page 3-3 and
Reclining Seatbacks on
page 3-4. When a rear-facing
child restraint is installed
properly, the front passenger
seat cannot be used.
5. If the child restraint manufacturer
recommends using a top tether,
adjust the top tether to its full
length and attach it to the top
tether anchor. Refer to the
instructions that came with the
child restraint and see Lower
Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on
page 3-38.
6. 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.
Tilt the latch plate to adjust the
belt if needed.
