N00418801167
The outboard seating positions in the second
row seat of your vehicle are equipped with
lower anchors for attaching child restraint
systems compatible with the LATCH system.
 When installing a child restraint system,
follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer and follow the directions in
this manual. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death to your child in an
accident or sudden stop.
 After installation, push and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is firmly secured. If
the child restraint system is not installed
securely, it may cause injury to the child
or other occupants in the event of an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
 When not in use, keep your child restraint
system secured with the seat belt, or
remove it from the vehicle, in order to pre-
vent it from being thrown around inside
the vehicle during an accident.
WARNING
NOTE
 Before purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the rear seat to ensure
proper fit. Due to the location of the seat belt
buckles and the shape of the seat cushion, it
may be difficult to securely install some
manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled
forward or to either side easily on the seat
cushion after the seat belt has been tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system.
Depending on the seating position in the
vehicle and the child restraint system that
you have, the child restraint system can be
attached using one of the following 2 meth-
ods:
• Attach to the lower anchorage in the second
row seat ONLY if the child restraint system
is compatible with the LATCH system (See
page 4-28).
• Attach to the seat belt (See page 4-30).
