Installing the Child Restraint System (CRS)

After selecting a suitable child restraint for your child, make sure it fits properly in your vehicle. Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when installing the child seat. Observe these general steps when installing the seat in the vehicle:

• Always properly secure the child restraint to the vehicle. All child restraints must be secured to the vehicle with the lap/shoulder seat belt or with the LATCH system.
• Make sure the child restraint is securely installed. After installing the child restraint in the vehicle, push and pull the seat forward and from side to side to make sure it is securely held by the seat. A child restraint installed with the seat belt must be installed as tightly as possible. However, some side-to-side movement may be expected.
• Secure the child in the child restraint. Make sure the child is properly secured in the child restraint according to the manufacturer's instructions.
