Securing a Child Restraint in the
Right Front Seat Position
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on page 1-49.
If your vehicle is a passenger van, there is no top strap
anchor in the right front passenger’s position. Do not
secure a child seat in this position if a national or local
law requires that the top strap be anchored, or if the
instructions that come with the child restraint say that the
top strap must be anchored. See Top Strap on
page 1-45 if the child restraint has one.
Your vehicle has a front passenger airbag. Never put a
rear facing child restraint in this seat. Here is why:
{
CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the front
passenger’s airbag inflates. This is because
the back of the rear-facing child restraint
would be very close to the inflating airbag.

If your vehicle is a passenger van, always
secure a rear-facing child restraint in a rear
seat. If your vehicle is a cargo van, do not use
a rear-facing child restraint in this vehicle. If
you need to secure a forward-facing child
restraint in the right front seat, always move
the passenger seat as far back as it will go.
A rear seat is a safer place to secure a forward-facing
child restraint.
If you need to secure a forward-facing child restraint in
the right front seat, you will be using the lap-shoulder
belt to secure the child restraint in this position. Be sure
to follow the instructions that came with the child
restraint. Secure the child in the child restraint when
and as the instructions say.
1. Because your vehicle has a right front passenger
airbag, always move the seat as far back as it will
go before securing a forward-facing child restraint.
See Manual Seats on page 1-2.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
