Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position You'll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See the earlier part about the topstrap if the child restraint has one. 1. Because your vehicle has a right front passenger air bag, always move the seat as farback as it will go before securing a forward-facing child restraint. (See "Seats" in the Index.) 2. Put the restraint on the seat. Follow the instructions for the child restraint. 3. Secure the child in the child restraint as the instructions say. Your vehicle has a right front passenger air bag. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in thisseat. Here's why: 4. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder portions of the vehicle's safety belt through or around the restraint.The child restraint instructions will show you how. If the shoulder belt goesin front of the child's face or neck, put it behind the child restraint. A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured if theright front passenger's air bag inflates. This is because the back of a rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating air bag. Always secure a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat. i
