child with enough force to cause

very serious or fatal injuries. If a

small child must be closely

watched, we recommend that

another adult sit in the back seat

with the child.

If it is necessary to put a forward-

facing child seat in the front,

move the vehicle seat as far to the

rear as possible, be sure the child

seat is firmly secured to the

vehicle, and that the child is

properly strapped in the seat.

Installing a Child Seat With a

Lap/Shoulder Belt

The lap/shoulder belts in the outer

back and front passenger seating

positions have a locking

mechanism that must be activated

to secure a child seat.
The following pages provide

instructions on how to secure a

forward-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

39

.

See page

34

for how to secure a

forward-facing child seat in the

center back seat with the lap belt.

1. With the child seat in the

desired seating position, route

the belt through the child seat

according to the seat maker's

instructions, then insert the

latch plate into the buckle.

Driver and Passenger Safety

Improperly placing a

forward-facing child seat in the

front seat can result in serious

injury or death if the airbags

inflate.

If you must place a forward-

facing child seat in the front,

move the vehicle seat as far

back as possible and properly

restrain the child.
