SAFETY INFORMATION
3. Tighten the tether strap as
instructed by the child seat
manufacturer.
Second row seat outer positions
Put the outer head restraint to it's
upper-most position, then route the
tether strap between the head
restraint legs, and secure the tether
strap hook onto the anchor. Make
sure the strap is not twisted.
Second row center position
Put the center head restraint to it's
lowest position, then route the
tether strap over the top of the head
restraint and secure the tether strap
hook onto the anchor. Make sure
the strap is not twisted.
Third row seat right outer position
Route the tether strap hook
between the head restraint legs,
and secure the tether strap hook onto the anchor. Make sure the strap is
not twisted.
4. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by rocking it forward and
back and side to side; little movement should be felt.
5. Make sure any unused seat belt that a child can reach is buckled, the
lockable retractor is activated, and the belt is fully retracted and locked.
Never attach two child seats to the same anchor. In a collision, one anchor
may not be strong enough to hold two child seats attachments and may
break, causing serious injury or death.
Do not use the lower inner anchors of the outer rear seats to secure a
LATCH-compatible child seat to the rear center seat, unless the
manufacturer's instructions for that system permit the use of inner
anchors with the stated spacing.
Installing a Child Seat with a Lap/Shoulder Seat Belt
n
18 |
A child seat can be installed with a lap/shoulder belt in any rear seat or, if
absolutely necessary, the front passenger seat.
1. Place the child seat on the vehicle
seat.
2. Route the seat belt through the child
seat according to the seat
manufacturer's instructions, and
insert the latch plate into the buckle.
Insert the latch plate fully until it
clicks.
3. Slowly pull the shoulder part of the
belt all the way out until it stops.
This activates the lockable
retractor.
4. Let the seat belt completely wind up
into the retractor, then try to pull it
out to make sure the retractor is
locked. If you are able to pull the
shoulder belt out, the lockable
retractor is not activated. Pull the
seat belt all the way out, and repeat
steps 3 – 4.
5. Grab the shoulder part of the seat
belt near the buckle, and pull up to
remove any slack from the lap part
of the belt. When doing this, place
your weight on the child seat and
push it into the vehicle seat.
6. Make sure the child seat is firmly
secured by rocking it forward and
back and side to side; less than one
inch of movement should occur
near the seat belt.
7. Make sure any unused seat belt that
a child can reach is buckled, the
lockable retractor is activated, and
the belt is fully retracted and locked.
To deactivate a lockable retractor,
release the buckle and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
