6. To tighten the belt, feed the shoulder belt back into

the retractor while you push down on the child
restraint. You may find it helpful to use your knee
to push down on the child restraint as you
tighten the belt.

7. Push and pull the child restraint in different

directions to be sure it is secure.

To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle’s
safety belt and let it go back all the way. The safety
belt will move freely again and be ready to work for an
adult or larger child passenger.

Air Bag Systems

This part explains the frontal and side impact air bag
systems.

Your vehicle has air bags – a frontal air bag for the
driver and another frontal air bag for the right front
passenger. Your vehicle may also have a side impact
air bag for the driver.

If your vehicle has a
side impact air bag for
the driver it will say
AIR BAG on the air bag
covering on the side of the
driver’s seatback closest
to the door.

Frontal air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of
injury from the force of an inflating frontal air bag.
But these air bags must inflate very quickly to do their
job and comply with federal regulations.
