on the child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,

a forward-facing child restraint,
it may be helpful to use your
knee to push down on the child
restraint as you tighten the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the
retractor is locked. If the
retractor is not locked, repeat

child restraint, make sure it is
securely held in place. To check,
grasp the child restraint at the
safety belt path and attempt
to move it sidetoside and
backandforth. When the child
restraint is properly installed,
there should be no more than
2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.
If the vehicle is equipped with
the passenger sensing system,
and when the passenger sensing
system has turned off the right front
passenger frontal airbag, the off
indicator in the passenger airbag
status indicator should light and
stay lit when you start the vehicle.
See Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator on page 516.
If a child restraint has been installed
and the on indicator is lit, see If the
On Indicator is Lit for a Child
Restraint under Passenger Sensing
System on page 348 for more
information.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle safety belt and
let it return to the stowed position.
