CAUTION

Remember that a child restraint left in a

closed vehicle can become very hot.

Check the seating surface and buckles

before placing your child in the child

restraint.

This vehicle is equipped with a universal child

restraint lower anchor system, referred to as the

LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHil-

dren) system. Some child restraints include two

rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can

be connected to these lower anchors. For details,

see the “LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for

CHildren) system” later in this section.
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child

restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used. See

“Child restraint installed using the seat belts”

later in this section. In general, child restraints are

also designed to be installed with the lap portion

of a lap/shoulder seat belt.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for

infants and small children of various sizes. When

selecting any child restraint, keep the following

points in mind:

● Choose only a restraint with a label certifying

that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle

Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor

Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

● Check the child restraint in your vehicle to be

sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat

and seat belt system.

● If the child restraint is compatible with your

vehicle, place your child in the child restraint

and check the various adjustments to be

sure the child restraint is compatible with

your child. Choose a child restraint that is

designed for your child’s height and weight.

Always follow all recommended procedures.

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or

territories require that infants and small

children be restrained in an approved child

restraint at all times while the vehicle is

being operated.
