6. Push and pull the child restraint in different

directions to be sure it is secure.

To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle’s
safety belt. It will be ready to work for an adult or larger
child passenger.

Securing a Child Restraint in the Right
Front Seat Position

Your vehicle has a right front passenger air bag. Never
put a rear

-

facing child restraint in this seat. Here’s why:

CAUTION:

A child in a rear

-

facing child restraint can be

seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger’s air bag inflates, even though your
vehicle has Next Generation frontal air bags. This
is because the back of the rear

-

facing child

restraint would be very close to the inflating air
bag. Always secure a rear

-

facing child restraint

in the rear seat.

Although a rear seat is a safer place, you can secure a
forward

-

facing child restraint in the right front seat.

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. Because your vehicle has a right front passenger air

bag, always move the seat as far back as it will go
before securing a forward

-

facing child restraint. (See

“Seats” in the Index.)

2. Put the restraint on the seat.
