Driver and Passenger Safety
If you decide that a child can safely
ride up front, be sure to:
Carefully read the owner's manual
and 50 ). If and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety
information.
Move the vehicle seat to the rear-
most position.
Have the child sit up straight, back
against the seat, and feet on or
near the floor.
Check that the child's seat belt is
properly positioned and secured.
Remind the child not to lean
toward the door.
Supervise the child. Even mature
children sometimes need to be
reminded to fasten the seat belts
or sit properly.
Using Child Restraints with
Tethers
Your vehicle has two tether anchor
points on the rear outer positions for
securing a tether-style child restraint
system to the vehicle.
Since a tether can provide additional
security, we recommend using a
tether whenever one is required or
available. (The owners may check
with the child restraint system
maker to determine whether a tether
is available for a particular child
restraint system.)
