If your child restraint has the LATCH sys-

There is no top tether anchor at the right
front seating position. Do not secure a
child seat in this position if a national or
local law requires that the top tether be

1) Your vehicle has a right front passen-
ger's frontal airbag. Refer to "Passen-
ger Sensing System" in this section. We
recommend that rear-facing
restraints be secured in a rear seat,
even if the airbag is off. If your child
restraint is for ward-facing, move the
seat as far back as it will go before
securing the child restraint in this seat.
Refer to "Manual Seats" in this section.
When the passenger sensing system
has turned off the right front passen-
ger's frontal airbag, the off indicator in
the passenger airbag status indicator
should light and stay lit when you turn
the ignition to RUN or START. Refer to
"Passenger Airbag Status Indicator" in
"Warning Lights, Gages, and Indica-
tors" in the "Instrument Panel" section.
