If your vehicle has a rear seat, there is no top tether
anchor at the right front seating position. Do not secure
a child seat in this position if a national or local law
requires that the top tether be anchored or if the
instructions that come with the child restraint say that
the top tether must be anchored. See Lower Anchors
and Tethers for Children (LATCH) on page 1-44 if
the child restraint has a top tether.
You will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be sure to follow the
instructions that came with the child restraint. Secure
the child in the child restraint when and as the
instructions say.
1. Your vehicle has a right front passenger’s frontal
airbag. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-77.If
your child restraint is forward-facing, move the seat
as far back as it will go before securing the
restraint in this seat. See Manual Seats on page 1-3
or Power Seats on page 1-4. If you need to use a
rear-facing child restraint in this seat, make sure the
airbag is off once the child restraint has been
installed.
When the airbag off switch has turned off the right
front passenger’s frontal airbag, the off indicator
in the airbag off light should light and stay lit when
you turn the ignition to RUN or START. See
Airbag Off Light on page 3-34.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
4. Buckle the belt. Make sure the release button is
positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
