When using the rear center seat belt to

install a child restraint, make sure the

connector tongue and the seat belt

tongue are secured. Do not use the seat

belt with only the seat belt tongue at-

tached. This could result in serious per-

sonal injury in case of an accident or

sudden stop.

A child restraint with a top tether strap

should not be used in the front passen-

ger seat.

The instructions in this section apply to child

restraint installation using the vehicle seat belts in

the rear seat or the front passenger seat.

Front-facing

Follow these steps to install a front-facing child

restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear

seats or in the front passenger seat:

1. If you must install a child restraint in

the front seat, it should be placed in a
front-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.

2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al-

ways follow the child restraint manufactur-

er’s instructions

The back of the child restraint should be secured

against the vehicle seatback. If necessary, adjust

or remove the head restraint to obtain the correct

child restraint fit. See “Head restraint adjust-

ment” in this section.
If the head restraint is removed, store it in a

secure place. Be sure to install the head restraint

when the child restraint is removed. If the seating

position does not have an adjustable head re-

straint and it is interfering with the proper child

restraint fit, try another seating position or a dif-

ferent child restraint.
