If your vehicle has an air-suspension seat in the
right front passenger's position, do not secure
a child restraint there. Here is why:
CAUTION:
{
A child restraint cannot be secured
properly in an air-suspension type seat.
This is because an air-suspension seat
is designed to move up and down for
an adult passenger. Do not use a child
restraint in an air-suspension seat.
Wherever you install a child restraint, be sure to
secure the child restraint properly.
Keep in mind that an unsecured child restraint
can move around in a collision or sudden stop
and injure people in the vehicle — even when
no child is in it.
Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH)
Some child restraints have a LATCH system.
As part of the LATCH system, your child restraint
may have lower attachments and/or a top
tether. The LATCH system can help hold the child
restraint in place during driving or in a crash.
Some vehicles have lower and/or top tether
anchors designed to secure a child restraint with
lower attachments and/or a top tether.
Some child restraints with a top tether are
designed to be used whether the top tether is
anchored or not. Other child restraints require that
the top tether be anchored. A national or local
law may require that the top tether be anchored.
