4. Pull the shoulder belt all the way out of
the retractor to set the lock. When the
retractor lock is set, the belt can be
tightened but not pulled out of the
retractor.
5. To tighten the belt, push down on the
child restraint, pull the shoulder portion
of the belt to tighten the lap portion of
the belt, and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing a
forward-facing child restraint, it may be
helpful to use your knee to push down
on the child restraint as you tighten
the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of the retractor
to make sure the retractor is locked.
If the retractor is not locked, repeat
Steps 4 and 5.
6. If the child restraint has a top tether,
follow the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions regarding the use of the top
tether. See
for
more information on using the top
tether anchors.
7. Before placing a child in the child
restraint, make sure it is securely held in
place. Push and pull the child restraint in
different directions to make sure it is
secure.
To remove the child restraint, unbuckle the
vehicle seat belt and let it return to the
stowed position. If the top tether is attached
to a top tether anchor, disconnect it.
For outboard rear seating positions, if the
child restraint cannot be installed properly
with the headrest in place, the headrest
may be removed. See your dealer for
assistance with removal, and store the
removed headrest in a secure place. When
the child restraint is removed, reinstall the
headrest before the seating position is used.
