Child Restraint System (CRS)
NOTICE
The recommended maximum
weight for the LATCH system is 65
lbs. (30 kg). When selecting a proper
child restraint, consider that the
maximum total weight of the child
plus the child restraint should be
less than 65 lbs. (30 kg).
As a guide, the MAX child restraint
weight should be determined by the
following calculation:
Child Restraint Weight = 65 - (child's
total weight in lbs.)
Securing a child restraint seat with
"Tether Anchor" system
First secure the child restraint with
the LATCH lower anchors or the
seat belt. If the child restraint man
-
ufacturer recommends that the top
tether strap be attached, attach
and tighten the top tether strap to
the top tether strap anchor.
Child restraint hook holders are
located on the shelf behind the rear
seats.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when installing the tether strap:
䳜 Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your
child restraint system.
䳜 NEVER attach more than one child
restraint to a single tether anchor.
This could cause the anchor or
attachment to come loose or
break.
䳜 Do not attach the tether strap to
anything other than the correct
tether anchor. It may not work
properly if attached to something
else.
䳜 Do not use the tether anchors for
adult seat belts or harnesses, or
for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
䳜 Always fasten the seat belts
behind the child restraint seat
when they are not used to secure
the child seat. Failure to do so
may result in child strangulation.
