6. 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.

7. If the child restraint has a top

tether, follow the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions
regarding the use of the top
tether. See Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children (LATCH
System) on page 3‑51
for more
information.

For H3T models, if the headrest
interferes with the installation of
the child restraint, remove the
headrest by pressing the button
on the headrest post, at the
top of the seatback, and lift to
remove. Store the headrest
under the outboard side of the
rear seat.

8. Push and pull the child restraint

in different directions to be sure
it is secure.

To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle safety belt and
let it return to the stowed position.
If the top tether is attached to a top
tether anchor, disconnect it. If the
headrest has been removed,
reinsert it onto the seatback.

Securing Child Restraints
(Rear Center Seating
Position)

Many child restraints are too wide to
be correctly secured in the center
rear seat, although some of them
will fit there. If the center seat
position is too narrow for the child
restraint, secure it in a rear outside
seat position.

If a child restraint is secured in the
center seat position, follow the
instructions in Securing Child
Restraints (Rear Outboard Seating
Position) on page 3‑59
or Securing
Child Restraints (Rear Center
Seating Position) on page 3‑61
or
Securing Child Restraints (Right
Front Seat Position) on page 3‑62
