CAUTION:
If the air bag readiness light ever comes on when
you have turned off the air bag, it means that
something may be wrong with the air bag system.
The right front passenger's air bag could inflate
even though the switch is off. If this ever
happens, don't let anyone whom the national
government has identified as a member of a
passenger air bag risk group sit in the right front
passenger's position, and don't secure a
-
rear
facing child restraint in your vehicle until
you have your vehicle serviced. See "AIR BAG
OFF Switch" in the Index.
-
You'll be using the lap
shoulder belt. See the earlier
part about the top strap if the child restraint has one.
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. If your vehicle has air bags and you are using a
-
rear
facing child restraint in this seat, make sure the
air bag is turned off. (See "AIR BAG OFF Switch"
in the Index.) If your child restraint is
-
forward
facing, always move the seat as far back as
it will go before securing it in this seat. (See "Seats"
in the Index.)
2. Put the restraint on the seat.
3. 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.
If the shoulder belt goes in front of the child's face or
neck, put it behind the child restraint.
