BUILT-IN CHILD SEATS
Built-in child safety seat (if equipped)
The 2nd row seat may include a built-in child seat. This child seat
conforms to all Federal and local motor vehicle safety standards. Read
the labels located on the child seat cushion for information on the
built-in child seat.
Use the built-in child seat only if the child is at least 1 year old, weighs
10–27 kg (22–60 lb) and the child’s shoulders (top) are below the
shoulder harness slots in the built-in child seat.
Children not meeting these requirements should be secured in an
approved aftermarket seat. Refer to Child and infant or child safety
seats in this chapter.
Built-in child seat retractors
The belts on built-in child seats are equipped with a retractor that locks
when both tongues are latched into the crotch safety belt buckle. The
retractor will automatically snug the belts around the child. If the belts
do not remain snug, take the vehicle to the dealer for child seat repair.
The belts will not snug during a collision.
Placing your child in the built-in child seat
Failure to follow all of the instructions on the use of this child
restraint system can result in your child striking the vehicle’s
interior during a sudden stop or crash.
Never use the Built-In Child Seat as a booster cushion with the
adult safety belts. A child using the adult belts could slide
forward and out from under the safety belts.
The rear seatback must be fully locked before operating the
child restraint system.
