WARNING!
Improper installation can lead to failure of a child
restraint. It could come loose in a collision. The child
could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manu-
facturer’s directions exactly when installing a child
restraint.
•
Child restraints are secured in the passenger seat by
the lap part of the lap/shoulder belt.
Buckle the child into the seat exactly as the child seat
manufacturer’s directions tell you. The cinching latch
plate on the lap/shoulder belt will keep the belt tight.
When your infant carrier or child seat is not in use, secure
it with the seat belt or remove it from the vehicle. Don’t
leave it loose in the vehicle. In a sudden stop or collision,
it could strike occupants and injure them.

restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands
for Lower Anchors and Tether for Children. The LATCH
system provides for the installation of the child restraint
without using the vehicle seat belt. The passenger seat
has an exclusive lower anchorage.
