Booster Seat
Child Seat Installation Position
The passenger lap/shoulder belt can easily
be converted into the automatic locking
mode, which must be done to hold the
child-restraint system.
NOTE:
To check if your seats have side air bags: FCA
US
LLC vehicles equipped with side air bag
will have an embossed "SRS AIRBAG"
marking on the outboard shoulder of the
seats.
Follow the child restraint system manufac-
turer's instructions carefully. Depending on
t
h
e type of child restraint system, it may not
employ seat belts which are in automatic
locking mode, however if it uses an upper
tether, it may not be mounted properly in this
vehicle as there is no safe way to anchor the
tether. Confirm whether the child restraint
system can be used with seat belts by
reading the child restraint system manufac
-
turer's instructions.

NOTE:
Child restraint systems are designed to be
s
e
cured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the
lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
Proceed as follows:
Make sure the ignition is cycled off.
Slide the seat as far back as possible.
Place the child-restraint system on the
seat without putting your weight on the
seat and secure the child-restraint system
with the lap portion of the lap/shoulder
belt. See the manufacturer's instructions
on the child-restraint system for belt
routing instructions.
To get the retractor into the automatic
locking mode, pull the shoulder belt
portion of the seat belt until the entire
length of the belt is out of the retractor.
WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the shoulder
belt under an arm or behind their back. In
a crash, the shoulder belt will not protect a
child properly, which may result in serious
injury or death. A child must always wear
both the lap and shoulder portions of the
seat belt correctly.
