WARNING:
Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat.
Children 12 and under should be properly restrained in the rear
seat whenever possible.
WARNING:
Depending on where you secure a child restraint,
and depending on the child restraint design, you may block
access to certain safety belt buckle assemblies, rendering those features
potentially unusable. To avoid risk of injury, occupants should only use
seating positions where they are able to be properly restrained.
When installing a child safety seat with combination lap and shoulder
belts:
•
Use the correct safety belt buckle for that seating position.
•
Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle until you hear a snap
and feel it latch. Make sure the tongue is securely fastened in the
buckle.
•
Keep the buckle release button pointing up and away from the safety
seat, with the tongue between the child seat and the release button,
to prevent accidental unbuckling.
•
Place the vehicle seat upon which the child seat will be installed in
the upright position.
•
Put the safety belt in the automatic locking mode. See Step 5. This
vehicle does not require the use of a locking clip.
Perform the following steps when installing the child seat with lap and
shoulder belts:
Note:
Although the child seat illustrated is a forward facing child seat,
the steps are the same for installing a rear facing child seat.
1. Position the child safety seat in a
seat with a combination lap and
shoulder belt.
