If you decide that a child can safely
ride up front, be sure to:

Carefully read the owner’s manual
and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety
information.

Have the child sit up straight, back
against the seat, and feet on or
near the floor.

Move the car seat to the rear-most
position.

Remind the child not to lean
toward the door because of the
side airbag.

Check that the child’s seat belt is
properly positioned and secured.

Supervise the child. Even mature
children sometimes need to be
reminded to fasten the seat belts
or sit properly.

Your car has three tether anchorage
points under the rear window for
securing a tether-style child seat to
the car.

Since a tether can provide additional
security, we recommend using a
tether whenever one is required or
available.

To use the anchorage point, pivot its
cover up.

Attach the tether strap hook to the
tether anchorage point, and tighten
the strap according to the child seat
maker’s instructions. Make sure the
strap is not twisted. Route it between
the legs of the head restraint.
