When child restraints are not needed, be sure to
remove the safety belt(s) from around the head
restraint(s), unbuckle the center safety belt, and
return all safety belts to their normal stored posi-
tions so that they will be available for regular
use.
WARNING
A child in a child restraint installed with the
LATCH/UCRA lower universal anchorages or
with the standard safety belt on the rear seat
may play with unused rear seat safety belts and
become entangled, resulting in serious personal
injury and even death.
●
Always secure unused rear seat safety belts
out of the reach of children in child restraints
such as by properly routing them around the
head restraint adjacent to the seating posi-
tion where the child restraint is installed.
NOTICE
The outboard safety belts may become damaged
if they are secured improperly.
●
Be careful not to activate the switchable lock-
ing retractor when routing the unused safety
belt around the head restraint. Otherwise it
will be very difficult to wind the safety belt
back into its normal position.
●
Only pull the unused safety belt out far
enough to allow you to route the belt around
the head restraint. If the safety belt is pulled
out too far, the switchable locking feature will
be activated.
●
When installing a child restraint, be careful not
to get the belt caught in the structure of the
child restraint and become damaged, especial-
ly when the switchable locking feature has
been activated.

Fig. 4 Example of a rearward-facing infant seat
properly installed on the rear seat.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) rec-
ommends that all infants should ride in rear-fac-
ing car safety seats (in which the child faces the
back of the vehicle) starting with their first ride
home from the hospital. All infants and toddlers
(generally up to age 3) should ride in a rear-fac-
ing car safety seat as long as possible – or until
they reach the highest weight or height allowed
by their child restraint’s manufacturer. These in-
fant seats support the baby's back, neck and
head in a collision. Rear-facing child restraints
can be used safely only on the rear seats of the
vehicle

fig. 4 . The best place for a rear-facing
safety seat is in the second row where the safety
seat can be installed with the LATCH/UCRA sys-
tem.
Before installing a child restraint on the front
passenger seat, be sure to follow the special in-
