Installing a Child Restraint Seat with
the "Tether Anchorage" System
For small children and babies, the use of a
child seat or infant seat is strongly recom-
mended and may be required in your state.
This child seat or infant seat should be of
appropriate size for the child and should be
installed in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. It is further recommended that
the seat be placed in the vehicle's rear seat
since this can make an important contribution
to safety. Your vehicle is provided with three
child restraint hook holders for installing the
child seat or infant seat.

o Since a safety belt or child restraint
system can become very hot if it is left
in a closed vehicle, be sure and check
the seat cover and buckles before plac-
ing a child there.
o When the child restraint system is not
in use, fasten it with a safety belt so that
it will not be thrown forward in the case
of a sudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a
child restraint should sit in the rear seat
and be restrained with the available lap/
shoulder belts. Never allow children to
ride in the front passanger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt
portion of the lap/shoulder belt is posi-
tioned midway over the shoulder and
never across the neck or behind the
back. Moving the child closer to the
center of the vehicle may help provide a
good shoulder belt fit. The lap belt por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt must al-
ways be positioned as low as possible
on the child's hips, and as snug as
possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the
child, we recommend the use of an
approved booster seat in the rear seat
in order to raise the child's seating
height so that the seat belt will properly
fit the child.
Before purchasing a booster seat, make
sure that it meets applicable Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and that

it is satisfactory for use with this ve-
hicle.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel
on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or a child
safety seat that "hooks" over a seatback;
it may not provide adequate security in
an accident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a
person's arms while they are in a mov-
ing vehicle, as this could result in seri-
ous injury to the child in the event of an
accident or a sudden stop. Holding a
child in a moving vehicle does not pro-
vide the child with any means of protec-
tion during an accident, even if the per-
son holding the child is wearing a seat
belt.
