Front-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seat (except for Cargo Van models) or in the
front passenger seat:
1. Adjust the rear seat to the upright and
rearmost position.
If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
front-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the seatback.
If necessary, adjust the head restraint (front
passenger seat only) or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct child
restraint fit. (See “HEAD RESTRAINTS”
earlier in this section and “ADJUSTABLE
HEADRESTS” earlier in this section.)
If the head restraint/headrest is removed,
store it in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall
the head restraint/headrest when the child
restraint is removed.
If the seating position does not have a
removable head restraint/headrest and it is
interfering with the proper child restraint fit,
try another seating position or a different
child restraint.

3. Route the seat belt tongue through the child
restraint and insert it into the buckle until you
hear and feel the latch engage. Be sure to
follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for belt routing.
