Protecting Children

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 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.

See page

center position on the third seat with

the lap part of the lap/shoulder 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 front, move
the vehicle seat as far back as

possible and properly restrain

the child.
