Seats and Restraints
When new, the vehicle's glove box
materials included an armrest
retaining strap. Use it to secure the
center armrest before installing a
rear-facing child restraint in the
second row center seat position.
Stow the rear seat center armrest.
Attach the retaining strap to the
armrest loop (1) and to the center
top tether anchor on the
seatback (2). Make sure the
retaining strap's clips are firmly
attached.
Install the rear-facing child
restraint using the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions and the
instructions described previously.
Remove the armrest retaining strap
before installing a forward facing
child restraint in the center seat
position, as it may interfere with the
attachment of the top tether to the
top tether anchor on the seatback.
Securing Child Restraints
(Front Passenger Seat)
This vehicle has airbags. A rear
seat is a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. See
Where to Put the Restraint on

.
In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system which is
designed to turn off the right front
passenger frontal airbag under
certain conditions. See
Passenger
Sensing System on page 3

and
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator

for more information,
including important safety
information.
A label on the sun visor says,
“
Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front.
”
This is because the risk to
the rear-facing child is so great,
if the airbag deploys.
