6. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured

by rocking it forward and back and side to
side; little movement should be felt.

7. Make sure any unused seat belt that a

child can reach is buckled, the lockable
retractor is activated, and the belt is fully
retracted and locked.

Installing a Child Seat with a Seat Belt

A child seat that is not properly secured will not
adequately protect a child in a crash and may cause
injury to the child or other vehicle occupants.

To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle
and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.

Adding Security with a Tether

Two tether anchorage points are provided
behind the rear outer seating positions and
one in the ceiling for the rear center. A child
seat that is installed with a seat belt and
comes with a tether can use the tether for
additional security.

Adding Security with a Tether

Since a tether can provide additional security to the
lap/shoulder seat belt installation, we recommend
using a tether whenever one is available.
