Protecting Children

When properly installed, a rear-

facing child seat may prevent the

driver or a front-seat passenger from

moving the seat as far back as

recommended (see page

12

). Or it

may prevent them from locking the

seat-back in the desired upright

position (see page

13

).

In either case, we recommend that

you place the child seat directly

behind the front passenger seat,

move the front seat as far forward as

needed, and leave it unoccupied. Or

you may wish to get a smaller child

seat that allows you to safely carry a

front passenger.

Rear-Facing Child Seat Installation

The lap/shoulder belts in the back

seats have a locking mechanism that

must be activated to secure a child

seat.

The following pages provide

instructions and tips on how to

secure a rear-facing child seat with

this type of seat belt.

If you have a child seat designed to

attach to the vehicle's lower

anchorages, follow the instructions

on page

38

.

1. With the child seat in the desired

back seating position, route the

belt through the child seat

according to the seat maker's

instructions, then insert the latch

plate into the buckle.
