WARNING

Child restraint anchorages are designed

to withstand only those loads imposed by

correctly fitted child restraints. Under no

circumstances are they to be used to at-

tach adult seat belts, or other items or

equipment to the vehicle. Doing so could

damage the child restraint anchorages.

The child restraint will not be properly

installed using the damaged anchorage,

and a child could be seriously injured or

killed in a collision.

PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER

SEATS

WARNING

If a booster seat and seat belt are not used

properly, the risk of a child being injured in

a sudden stop or collision greatly

increases:

– Make sure the shoulder portion of

the belt is away from the child’s face

and neck and the lap portion of the

belt does not cross the stomach.

– Make sure the shoulder belt is not

behind the child or under the child’s

arm.

– A booster seat must only be installed

in a seating position that has a

lap/shoulder belt.

BOOSTER SEATS

1-36 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

A. Low back booster seat

B. High back booster seat

Booster seats of various sizes are offered by

several manufacturers. When selecting any

booster seat, keep the following points in mind:

● Choose only a booster seat with a label

certifying that it complies with Canadian Mo-

tor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

● Check the booster seat in your vehicle to be

sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat

and seat belt system.

Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-37

● Make sure the child’s head will be properly

supported by the booster seat or vehicle

seat. The seatback must be at or above the

center of the child’s ears. For example, if a

low back booster seat is chosen, the vehicle

seatback must be at or above the center of

the child’s ears. If the seatback is lower than

the center of the child’s ears, a high back

booster seat should be used.

● If the booster seat is compatible with your

vehicle, place the child in the booster seat

and check the various adjustments to be

sure the booster seat is compatible with the

child. Always follow all recommended pro-

cedures.

All Canadian provinces or territories re-

quire that infants and small children be

restrained in an approved child restraint at

all times while the vehicle is being oper-

ated.

The instructions in this section apply to booster

seat installation in the rear seats or the front

passenger seat.

BOOSTER SEAT INSTALLATION

CAUTION

Do not use the lap/shoulder belt in the

Automatic Locking Retractor mode when

using a booster seat with the seat belts.

For additional information, refer to all Warnings

and Cautions in the “Child safety”, “Child re-

straints” and “Booster seats” sections of this

manual before installing a child restraint.

Follow these steps to install a booster seat in the

rear seat or in the front passenger seat:

1. If you must install a booster seat in the

front seat, move the seat to the rear-

most position.

2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only

place it in a front-facing direction. Always

follow the booster seat manufacturer’s in-

structions.

WRS0699

1-38 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

3. The booster seat should be positioned on

the vehicle seat so that it is stable.

If necessary, adjust or remove the head

restraint/headrest to obtain the correct

booster seat fit. If the head

restraint/headrest is removed, store it in a

secure place. Be sure to reinstall the

head restraint/headrest when the

booster seat is removed. For additional

information, refer to “Head

restraints/headrests” in this section for head

restraint/headrest adjustment, removal and

installation information.

If the seating position does not have an

adjustable head restraint/headrest and it is

interfering with the proper booster seat fit,

try another seating position or a different

booster seat.

4. Position the lap portion of the seat belt low

and snug on the child’s hips. Be sure to

follow the booster seat manufacturer’s in-

structions for adjusting the seat belt routing.

5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt

toward the retractor to take up extra slack.

Be sure the shoulder belt is positioned

across the top, middle portion of the child’s

shoulder. Be sure to follow the booster seat

manufacturer’s instructions for adjusting the

seat belt routing.

6. Follow the warnings, cautions and instruc-

tions for properly fastening a seat belt

shown in “Three-point type seat belt with

retractor” in this section.

7. If the booster seat is installed in the front

passenger seat, place the ignition switch in

the ON position. The front passenger air bag

status light

may or may not illuminate,

depending on the size of the child and the

type of booster seat being used. For addi-

tional information, refer to “Supplemental air

bag warning light” in this section.
