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 back
andforth. When the child
restraint is properly installed,
there should be no more than
2.5 cm(1 in) of movement.

has turned off the right front
passenger frontal airbag, the off

If a child restraint has been installed
and the on indicator is lit, see If the
