2-54 Seats and Restraints
5. To tighten the belt, push down
on the child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint,
it may be helpful to use your
knee to push down on the child
restraint as you tighten the belt.
If the child restraint system has
a lock‐off mechanism, use it to
secure the vehicle safety belt.
6. Before placing a child in the
child restraint, make sure it is
securely held in place. Push and
pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
If the airbag is off, the off indicator
in the passenger airbag status
indicator will come on and stay on
when the vehicle is started.
If a child restraint has been installed
and the on indicator is lit, see
“If the On Indicator is Lit for a Child
Restraint” under Passenger Sensing
System on page 2‑31 for more
information.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle safety belt and
let it return to the stowed position.
