GETTING STARTED WARNING! • In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and others could be severely injured or killed. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper restraint for the child's size. Rearward-facing child seats must NEVER be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a front passenger air bag. An air bag deployment could cause severe injury or death to infants in this position. Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be severely injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer's directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint. An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. • • • FRONT SEATS Power Seats • The power seat switch, located on the outboard side of the seat near the floor, controls forward/back, up/down, and tilt adjustment. Power Lumbar • Push the switch forward to increase the lumbar support. Push the switch rearward to decrease the lumbar support. • Pushing upward or downward on the switch will raise and lower the position of the support. 18
