Sitting correctly and safely
The top tether anchors in the vehicle are only
designed for child safety seats equipped with
an upper strap. To reduce the risk of serious or
fatal injury, never secure other child restraint
systems, belts, or objects to the anchors.
Securing unused safety belts on the rear
bench seat
Fig. 64 Rear bench seat: securing unused safety belts
Ifa child safety seat is used on the rear bench
seat, the child must not be able to reach any
safety belts that are not being used. Secure safe-
ty belts that are within reach of the child.
> Ifyou secure a child safety seat to the LATCH
anchors, fasten the safety belt on the seat
where the child safety seat is installed using
the seat's safety belt latch.
» Ifyou secure a child safety seat to one of the
outer seats, fasten the safety belt for the cen-
ter seat in its latch.
» Activate the belt retractor lock on the fastened
safety belts. To do this, pull the upper belt out
completely and then allow it to retract. You will
hear a clicking sound while the belt is retract-
ing. It will not be possible to pull the safety
belt out any farther.
» Make sure the fastened safety belt does not
block access to the LATCH anchors. Otherwise,
it may not be possible to secure the child safety
'seat to the LATCH anchors correctly.
Achild in a child safety seat could play with
the unused safety belts and then become en-
tangled in them, which increases the risk of

fatal injury. Always secure unused safety belts
so that they are not within reach of children in
child safety seats.
