Child restraints Child restraint installation Child-safety locksbackrest could lead to serious or fatal
injuries.
If it is necessary for a child (not an in-
fant) to ride in the front seat, certain
precautions should be taken. First,
move the passenger seat as far away
from the dashboard as possible. This
important precaution is intended to
maximize the distance between the air-
bag and the child. Older children should
be tightly secured with the safety belt.
Younger children should be secured in
an appropriate forward-facing child re-
straint system that has first been prop-
erly secured with a safety belt. Never
install a rear-facing child restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger seat.
We strongly urge you to carefully read
and observe the instructions for instal-
lation and use provided by the child re-
straint's manufacturer whenever you
use such a device.
Be sure that all occupants (of all ages)
remain properly and securely restrained
at all times.<
All rear seating positions in your
vehicle meet the recommendations
of SAE J1819, an industry recom-
mended practice for securing child
restraint systems in motor vehicles.To allow you to use the safety belts to
secure child-restraint systems, the belts
at all rear positions feature a special
locking mode.
A label with operating instructions is at-
tached to the belt next to the latch plate
(except the middle belt in the rear).
Lock the safety beltExtract the entire length of the belt from
the inertia reel mechanism. Allow the
belt to retract somewhat and engage
the buckle. Then tighten the belt around
the child restraint. The belt is now
locked. Comply with the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the
child restraint.Unlock the safety beltRelease the safety belt, remove the
child's seat and retract the safety belt to
its end position on the belt retractor.365us146
Insert the key into a rear door lock and
turn it outward:
The door can now be opened from the
outside only.380de019

Ski bag
*
Designed for safe, convenient trans-
port of 3 to 4 pairs of skis.
The supplementary length provided by
the ski sacks in combination with the
space in the luggage compartment
makes it possible to transport skis of up
to 6.8 ft (2.10 m) in length. Because of
the tapered shape of the ski bag, it can
only accommodate two pairs of skis
with a length of 6.8 feet (2.10 m).
LoadingFold the center armrest completely out.
Detach the Velcro
â strip holding the
center cover in position and place it on
the armrest.
Lower the center armrestGently raise the front of the armrest and
press the two levers inward (arrows):
The armrest drops down against the
surface of the seat.
Before loading the ski bag, the
center armrest must be com-
pletely lowered.< 380de067

ward and fold the cover to the front.
