CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if
available. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seats rather than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children
ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for
ignoring it.
WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so
great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and
others could be badly injured. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper
restraint for the child's size.
Integrated Child Booster Seat
• The Integrated Child Booster Seat is located in each outboard second-row passenger
seat, is designed for children weighing between 48 and 85 lbs (22 and 39 kg) and
between 47 in (119 cm) and 57 in (145 cm) tall.
• To position a child into the Integrated Child Booster Seat follow these steps:
• Slide the second row seat to the full rear position to use the Integrated Child
Booster Seat.
NOTE: The second row bench with Integrated Child Booster Seat must remain in the full
rear position during use.
• Pull the release loop forward to release the latch and seat cushion.
• Grasp the latch plate and pull out the
seat belt.
• Lift the seat cushion up and push back to
lock it in the booster seat position.
