WARNING   WARNING:  Read and follow the manufacturer's instructions when you are installing a child restraint.

Note:   Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for installing a child restraint with a top tether.
WARNING   WARNING:  Do not attach the top tether strap to anything other than the correct top tether strap anchor point.
WARNING   WARNING:  Make sure that the top tether strap is not slack or twisted and is properly located on the anchor point.
WARNING   WARNING:  If you use a child restraint that has a support leg, make sure the support leg rests securely on the floor.
WARNING   WARNING:  Make sure the child restraint rests tightly against the vehicle seat. You may need to adjust the seats to properly secure the child restraint. Make sure that the seat backrest is in an upright position. It may also be necessary to lift or remove the head restraint.

When using a child restraint on a front seat, follow these seat positioning guidelines:
  • The child restraint must not be in contact with the instrument panel.
  • Position the passenger seat as far rearward as possible and route the seatbelt forward and downward from the B-pillar ring to the child restraint.
  • If it proves difficult to tighten the lap section of the seatbelt without slack remaining, adjust the seat backrest to the fully upright position and raise the height of the seat.
Note:   When using a child restraint on a rear seat, adjust the front seat to a position to prevent contact with the child's feet or legs.
