Route the safety belt around or through the child restraint using the proper path for the safety belt
as specified by the child restraint manufacturer.
Insert the belt tongue into the buckle for that seating position.

led quickly.
Remove all slack from the lap belt portion of the safety belt and hold it tightly against the child
restraint.
Push the child restraint down with your full weight to make sure that the child restraint will be prop‐
erly installed with the safety belt really tight.

Check the child restraint for proper installation by pulling on the child restraint at the place where
the vehicle's safety belt goes into the child restraint. The child restraint should not move forward or
sideways by more than about 1inch (2.5cm).
Make sure that the child restraint is centered on the seat and is not installed at an angle.
After checking to make sure that the child restraint is properly installed, make certain that the child
restraint is correctly recognized by the capacitive passenger detection system in the front passen‐
ger seat and that the PASSENGERAIRBAG light signals the correct front passenger front
airbag status. Please be sure to read the additional important information and heed the
WARNINGS about the Advanced Airbag System and the function of the PASSENGERAIRBAG
light in this Manual.
Always remember: Even though your vehicle is equipped with an Advanced Airbag System, all chil‐
dren, especially those 12years and younger, must always ride in the back seat properly restrained for
their age and size.
Activating the switchable locking feature
Slowly pull the shoulder belt portion of the safety belt all the way out of the retractor.
While keeping your weight on the child restraint, guide the shoulder belt portion of the safety belt
back into the retractor until the belt lies flat and is tightened against the child restraint.
You should hear a clicking noise as the belt winds back into the inertia reel of the safety belt re‐
tractor. Test the switchable locking feature by pulling on the belt. You should no longer be able to
pull the belt out of the retractor. The switchable locking feature is now active.
