Seats and Restraints

7. To tighten the belt, push down

on the child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint, it
may be helpful to use your knee
to push down on the child
restraint as you tighten the belt.

Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the
retractor is locked. If the
retractor is not locked, repeat
Steps 5 and 7.

8. Tighten the top tether. See

Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on
page 3‑43
.

9. Before placing a child in the

child restraint, make sure it is
securely held in place. To check,
grasp the child restraint at the
safety belt path and attempt to
move it side to side and back
and forth. When the child
restraint is properly installed,
there should be no more than
2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.

If the vehicle is equipped with the
passenger sensing system, and
when the passenger sensing system
has turned off the right front
passenger frontal airbag, the off
indicator on the passenger airbag
status indicator should light and stay
lit when you start the vehicle. See
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
on page 5‑11
.

If a child restraint has been installed
and on indicator is lit, see “If the On
Indicator is Lit for a Child Restraint”
under Passenger Sensing System
on page 3‑27
for more information.

To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle safety belt and
let it return to the stowed position.
