WARNING
 FRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible. If one must be used in
the front passenger seat, move the seat to
the most rearward position and make sure
the child stays in the child restraint sys-
tem, properly restrained. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in serious
injury or death to the child.
WARNING
 It is important to use an approved rear-
facing infant restraint until the infant is
one year old (unless the infant outgrows
the seat sooner). This allows the infant’s
neck and spine to develop enough to sup-
port the weight of their head in the event
of an accident.
 When installing a child restraint system,
follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer and follow the directions in
this manual. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death to your child in an
accident or sudden stop.
 After installation, push and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is firmly secured. If
the child restraint system is not installed
securely, it may cause injury to the child
or other occupants in the event of an acci-
dent or sudden stop.

When not in use, keep your child restraint
system secured with the seat belt, or
remove it from the vehicle, in order to pre-
vent it from being thrown around inside
the vehicle during an accident.
WARNING NOTE
 Before purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the rear seat to ensure
proper fit. Due to the location of the seat belt
buckles and the shape of the seat cushion, it
may be difficult to securely install some
manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled
forward or to either side easily on the seat
cushion after the seat belt has been tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system.
Depending on the seating position in the
vehicle and the child restraint system that
you have, the child restraint system can be
attached using one of the following two
methods:
• Attach to the lower anchorage in the rear
seat ONLY if the child restraint system is
compatible with the LATCH system (See
page 4-28).
• Attach to the seat belt (See page 4-30).
