● When using the rear center seat belt to install a child restraint, make sure the connector tongue and the seat belt tongue are secured. Do not use the seat belt with only the seat belt tongue attached. This could result in serious personal injury in case of an accident or sudden stop. ● A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat except for the 2-passenger cargo van. ● Front-facing child restraints can be installed in all 3rd row bench seat positions. However, front-facing child restraints that require the use of a top tether strap can be installed in the center 3rd row position only. Do not install a child restraint requiring a top tether strap in an outboard position and attempt to angle the tether to the 3rd row center anchor. The instructions in this section apply to child restraint installation using the vehicle seat belts in the rear seats or the front passenger seat. WRS0699 2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manufacturer's instructions. The back of the child restraint should be secured against the vehicle seatback. If necessary, adjust or remove the head restraint to obtain the correct child restraint fit. See "Head restraint adjustment" earlier in this section. If the head restraint is removed, store it in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall the head restraint when the child restraint is removed. If the seating position does not have an adjustable head restraint and it is interfering with the proper child restraint fit, try another seating position or a different child restraint. Front-facing (front passenger seat) - step 1 Front-facing Follow these steps to install a front-facing child restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear seats or in the front passenger seat: 1. If you must install a child restraint in the front seat, it should be placed in a front-facing direction only. Move the seat to the rearmost position. Child restraints for infants must be used in the rear-facing direction and therefore must not be used in the front seat. Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-43

When using the rear center seat belt to
install a child restraint, make sure the
connector
tongue
and
the
seat
belt
tongue are secured. Do not use the seat
belt with only the seat belt tongue at-
tached. This could result in serious per-
sonal injury in case of an accident or
sudden stop.
A child restraint with a top tether strap
should not be used in the front passen-
ger seat
except
for the
2-passenger
cargo van.
Front-facing child restraints can be in-
stalled in all 3rd row bench seat posi-
tions. However, front-facing child re-
straints that require the use of a top
tether strap can be installed in the cen-
ter 3rd row position only. Do not install
a child restraint requiring a top tether
strap in an outboard position and at-
tempt to angle the tether to the 3rd row
center anchor.
The instructions in this section apply to child
restraint installation using the vehicle seat belts in
the rear seats or the front passenger seat.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seats or in the front passenger seat:
1.
If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
front-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al-
ways follow the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should be secured
against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head restraint
to obtain the correct child restraint fit. See “Head
restraint adjustment” earlier in this section.
If the head restraint is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the head re-
straint when the child restraint is removed.
If the seating position does not have an adjust-
able head restraint and it is interfering with the
proper child restraint fit, try another seating posi-
tion or a different child restraint.
