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 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
manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Depending on the 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 manufacturer's instructions.
Passengers Seat Child Restraint
System Installation (With Passenger
Occupant Classification System)
Note: Child restraint systems are
designed to be secured 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.
Push the child-restraint system firmly
into the vehicle seat. Be sure the belt
retracts as snugly as possible. A clicking
noise from the retractor will be heard
during retraction if the system is in
automatic locking mode. If the belt does
not lock the seat down tight, repeat the
previous step and also this one.
Seat your child safely in the
child-restraint system and secure the
child according to the instructions from
the child-restraint system manufacturer.
Note: Inspect this function before
each use of the child restraint system.
You should not be able to pull the
shoulder belt out of the retractor while
the system is in the automatic locking
mode. When you remove the
child-restraint system, be sure the belt
fully retracts to return the system to
emergency locking mode before
occupants use the seat belts.
Place the ignition in ON mode and
make sure the passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates after
installing a child restraint system on the
passenger seat. If the passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light does not
illuminate, remove the child restraint
system, cycle the ignition to OFF mode,
and then reinstall the child restraint
system.
Warning!
Never place a rear-facing child restraint
in front of an air bag. A deploying
passenger Advanced Front Air Bag can
cause death or serious injury to a child
12 years or younger, including a child in a
rear-facing child restraint.
Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a
vehicle with a rear seat.
