Protecting Children

Child Seat Installation

The passenger's seat belt has a

locking mechanism that must be

activated to secure a child seat.

The following pages provide

instructions and tips on how to

secure a forward-facing child seat

with this type of seat belt.

1. Move the vehicle seat to the rear-

most position. Moving the seat as

far back as possible reduces the

chance of a child being injured or

killed if the passenger's airbag

inflates. (See page

74

for

instructions on how to adjust the

seat.)

2. With the child seat in position,

route the belt through the child

seat according to the seat maker's

instructions, then insert the latch

plate into the buckle.

3. To activate the lockable retractor,

slowly pull the shoulder part of the

belt all the way out until it stops,

then let the belt feed back into the

retractor (you might hear a

clicking noise as the belt retracts).

4. After the belt has retracted, tug on

it. If the belt is locked, you will not

be able to pull it out. If you can pull

the belt out, it is not locked and

you will need to repeat these steps.
