Child seat anchors – LATCH type
This vehicle is equipped with two LATCH-
(Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren)
type anchors (at each of the outer rear
seats) for installation of a LATCH-type
child seat with matching mounting fittings.

Warning!

G

When using a BabySmart

TM

compatible child

seat on the front passenger seat, the
passenger front air bag will not deploy only
if the 56 indicator lamp (

page 80)

remains illuminated.

Make sure to check the 56 indicator
lamp every time you use the special system
child seat. Should the 56 indicator
lamp go out while the restraint is installed,
please check installation. If the 56
indicator lamp remains out, do not use the
BabySmart

TM

restraint to transport children

on the front passenger seat until the system
has been repaired.

Warning!

G

Do not place powered-on laptops, cell
phones, electronic tags such as those used
in ski passes and like electronic devices on
the front passenger seat. Signals from such
devices may interfere with the BabySmart

TM

system. Such signal interference may cause
the 56 indicator lamp (

page 80)

not to come on during self-test or be contin-
uously lit, indicating that the system is not
functioning.

Warning!

G

Children too big for child restraint systems
must ride in seats using regular seat belts.
Position shoulder belt across chest and
shoulder, not face or neck.

A booster seat may be necessary to achieve
proper seat belt positioning for children
from 41 lbs until they reach a height where
a lap/shoulder belt fits properly without a
booster.
