CAUTION:

If the airbag readiness light ever comes on
when you have turned off the airbag, it means
that something may be wrong with the airbag
system. The right front passenger’s airbag
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 right front 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 1-69
.

If your child restraint does not have the LATCH system,
you will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow the
instructions that came with the child restraint.
Secure the child in the child restraint when and as the
instructions say.

1. If your vehicle has a passenger airbag and an

airbag off switch, and you are using a rear-facing
child restraint in this seat, make sure the airbag is
turned off. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-69.
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 Power Seat on page 1-4 or
Manual Seats on page 1-3.

2. Put the child restraint on the seat.

3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder

portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
