CAUTION:

If the airbag readiness light ever comes on
when you have turned off the passenger’s
frontal airbag and side impact airbag
(if equipped), it means that something may be
wrong with the airbag system. The passenger’s
frontal airbag and side impact airbag
(if equipped) could inflate even though the
switch is off. If this ever happens, do not let
anyone whom the national government has
identified as a member of a passenger airbag
risk group sit in the passenger’s position (for
example, do not secure a rear-facing child
restraint in your vehicle) until you have your
vehicle serviced. See Airbag Off Switch
on
page 1-48
.

There are no top strap anchors in your vehicle. Do not
secure a child seat in your vehicle if a national or
local law requires that the top strap be anchored, or if
the instructions that come with the restraint say that the
top strap must be anchored.

1. Your vehicle has airbags. See Airbag Off Switch on

page 1-48. If your child restraint is forward-facing,
always move the seat as far back as it will go before
securing it in this seat. See Manual Seats on
page 1-2
or Six-Way Power Seats on page 1-2.
Never use a rear-facing child restraint in this seat
unless the airbag is off.

2. Find the LATCH anchorages in the passenger seat.

See Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System)
on page 1-31.

3. Put the child restraint on the seat.

4. Attach and tighten the LATCH attachments on the

child restraint to the LATCH anchorages in the
vehicle. The child restraint instructions will show you
how. See Top Strap on page 1-30 if your child
restraint has one.

5. Push and pull the child restraint in different

directions to be sure it is secure.

To remove the child restraint, simply unhook the top
tether from the top tether anchorage and then
disconnect the LATCH anchorages.
