SEATS, SEAT BELTS, CHILD RESTRAINTS AND AIR BAGS 79 WARNING! • It is important to use an approved rear facing infant restraint until the infant is one year old to allow the infant's neck and spine to develop enough to support the weight of their head in the event of a collision. • When installing a child restraint system, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and follow the directions in this manual. Failure to do so can result in severe or fatal injury to your child in a collision or sudden stop. • After installation, push and pull the child restraint system back and forth, and side to side, to see that it is firmly secured. If the child restraint system is not installed securely, it may cause injury to the child or other occupants in the event of a collision or sudden stop. • When not in use, keep your child restraint system secured with the seat belt or remove it from the vehicle in order to prevent it from being thrown inside the vehicle during an accident. NOTE: Before purchasing a child restraint system, try installing it in the rear seat to ensure a good fit. Due to the location of the seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat cushion it may be difficult to securely install some child restraint systems. If the child restraint system can be pulled forward or to either side easily on the seat cushion after the seat belt has been tightened, choose another child restraint system. • Depending on the seating position in the vehicle and the child restraint system that you have, the child restraint can be attached using one of the following 2 methods: • To the lower anchorage in the rear seat ONLY if the child restraint is compatible with the LATCH System (See page 80). • To the UNIBELT (See page 82). 3
