To Release the Seat Belt
When you want to release the seat belt, press
the button in the locking buckle.
WARNING:
The rear seat center belt latching mecha-
nism is different from those for the out-
board rear seat shoulder belts. When fas-
tening the outboard rear seat shoulder belts
or the rear seat center belt, make sure they
are inserted into the correct buckles to
obtain maximum protection from the seat
belt system and assure proper operation.
B230A02A-AAT
Children riding in the car should sit in the rear
seat and must always be properly restrained to
minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According to acci-
dent statistics provided by the National High-
way Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger
children not in a child restraint should use one
of the seat belts provided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific requirements in
your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must
be properly placed and installed in the rear seat.
You must use a commercially available child
restraint system that meets the requirements of
the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS).
Children could be injured or killed in a crash if
their restraints are not properly secured. For
small children and babies, a child seat or infant
seat must be used. Before buying a particular
child restraint system, make sure it fits your car
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the
instructions provided by the manufacturer when
installing the child restraint system.

WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed
in the rear seat. Never install a child or
infant seat on the front passenger's seat.
Should an accident occur and cause the
passenger side airbag to deploy, it could
severely injure or kill an infant or child
seated in an infant or child seat. Thus,
only use a child restraint in the rear seat
of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys-
tem can become very hot if it is left in a
closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat
cover and buckles before placing a child
there.
o When the child restraint system is not in
use, store it in the trunk or fasten it with
a safety belt so that it will not be thrown
forward in the case of a sudden stop or
an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child
restraint should still sit in the rear seat
and be restrained with the available lap/
shoulder belts. Never allow children to
ride in the front passenger seat.
