Seating and Safety Restraints When installing a child safety seat: • Review and follow the information presented in the Airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) section in this chapter. • Use the correct safety belt buckle for that seating position (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from). • Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle until you hear a snap and feel it latch. Make sure the tongue is securely fastened in the buckle. • Place seat back in upright position. • Put the safety belt in the automatic locking mode. Refer to Automatic locking mode section in this chapter. • The second row center seat can be moved forward to keep a child in a child restraint close to the front seat occupants. The seat should be moved to the full rearward position when it is occupied by older children or adults. • LATCH lower anchors are recommended for use by children up to 48 lb (22 kg) in a child restraint. Top tether anchors can be used for children up to 60 lb (27 kg) in a child restraint, and to provide upper torso restraint for children up to 80 lb (36 kg) using an upper torso harness and a belt-positioning booster. Ford recommends the use of a child safety seat having a top tether strap. Install the child safety seat in a seating position with LATCH and tether anchors. For more information on top tether straps and anchors, refer to Attaching child safety seats with tether straps in this chapter. For more information of LATCH anchors refer to Attaching child safety seats with LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) attachments for child seat anchors in this chapter. 186 2008 Navigator (nav) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
