Protecting Children
Installing a Rear-Facing Child Seat
with the Lap Belt
To install a rear-facing child seat in
the center back seat with the lap belt,
follow instruction number 1 on page
30
for routing and latching the seat
belt. Then pull hard on the loose end
of the belt to remove any slack (it
may help to put weight on the child
seat while pulling on the belt).
Finally, follow instruction number 5
on page
31
to verify that the child
seat is secure.
Rear-Facing Child Seat Installation
Tips
For proper protection, an infant must
ride in a reclined, or semi-reclined
position. To determine the proper
reclining angle, check with the baby's
doctor or follow the seat maker's
recommendations.
To achieve the desired reclining
angle, it may help to put a rolled up
towel under the toe of the child seat,
as shown.
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.
