5. Before placing the child in the child re-
straint, use force to tilt the child restraint
from side to side, and tug it forward to
make sure it is securely held in place.
6. Ensure the retractor is in the automatic
locking mode by trying to pull more belt
out of the retractor. If you cannot pull any
more belt webbing out of the retractor,
the belt is in the automatic locking mode.
7. Check to make sure the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the
lap belt is not locked, repeat steps 3
through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt is allowed to wind back into the
retractor, the automatic locking mode (child
restraint mode) is canceled; the emergency
locking retractor may be used as normal
and will only lock during a sudden stop or
impact.
INSTALLATION IN CENTER OF
BENCH SEAT

When you install a child restraint in the
center of the bench seat, follow these steps:
1.
Position the child restraint on the seat, as
illustrated. It can be placed in a forward
facing or rear facing direction, depending
on the size of the child. Always follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Route the seat belt tongue through the
child restraint and insert it into the buckle
until you hear and feel the latch engage.
Be sure to follow the child restraint manu-
facturer’s instructions for belt routing.
3. Remove all slack in the lap belt for a very
tight fit by pulling forcefully on the lap belt
adjustment.
4. Before placing the child in the child re-
straint, use force to tilt the child restraint
from side to side, and tug it forward to
make sure it is securely held in place.

tighten the belt again, or put the restraint
in the passenger seat.
6. Check to make sure the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use.
