1. Remove the head rest at the seating p osition where the c hild seat
has b een installed with the seatb elt or lower anc ho rag es; lift up the
head rest while p ressing the release b utton.
2. Fasten the top tether hook of the c hild safety to the ap p rop riate up -

tween 9.05 kg (20 lb .) and 18.09 kg (40 lb .), whose heig ht is 110 c m
(44.3 in.) or less, who are c ap ab le of sitting up ri g ht alone and whose
should er heig ht is b elow the should er b elt slot.
The c hild should also b e at least one year old . It is imp ortant to use a
rear-fac ing c hild restraint until the c hild is ab ou t a year old . A rear-fac ing
restraint g ives the c hild ’s head , nec k and b od y the sup p ort they would
need in a c ollision. See the “Child restraint systems ” sec tion in this
manual.
WARNING
Do not use the built-in child restraint for infants who require a rear-facing child restraint. In an accident, serious crippling injuryor death could result if the built-in restraint is used for the infant.
If the c hild exc eed s the maximum weig ht and heig ht c ap ac ities of the
b uilt-in c hild restraint (maximum weig ht of 18.09 k g (40 lb .) and maxi-
mum heig ht of 110 c m (44.3 in.)), d o not use the b u ilt-in c hild restraint.
The c hild should use either the vehic le ’s seatb elts or an ap p roved after-
market b ooster seat, if nec essary.
The b uilt-in c hild restraint system c onforms to Fed eral Motor Vehic le
Safety Stand ard No. 213 and Canad a Motor Vehic le Sa fety Stand ard No.

Ac c ord ing to ac c id ent statistic s, c hild ren are safe r when p rop erly re-
strained in the rear seating p osition than in the f ront seating p osition.
Child ren ag ed 12 and und er should not sit in the fr ont seat of a c ar
eq uip p ed with a p asseng er ’s SRS airb ag .
WARNING
Make sure the child is securely restrained with the built-in
child restraint. Failure to follow the manufacturer ’s instructions on the use of
this child restraint system can result in your child striking the ve-
hicle’ s interior during a sudden stop or crash.

Snugly adjust the belts provided with this child restraint
around your child. The built-in child restraint should be used for only one child at
a time. Using it for two or more children at the same time couldresult in serious injury or death in an accident. Do not use the center lap and shoulder belt with the child re-
straint. A child using the center seatbelt could slide forward andout from under the seatbelt in a sudden stop or an accident, re-sulting in serious injury to the child.
HBS047BA
WARNING
Do not use another child restraint system over the opened
built-in child restraint. Because a child restraint system cannot be secured on the built-in restraint cushion, the restraint could
fall down during sudden braking, a sharp turn or in an accident,
causing serious injury to the child in it. Always keep the child restraint equipped rear seatback locked
securely in place when the child restraint is in use. Otherwise, inan accident, serious injury or death to a child could result if the
seatback falls down. The built-in child restraint, especially metallic parts, can be-
come hot in a vehicle that has been closed up in sunny weather;they could burn a small child. Check the child restraint beforeyou place a child in it.

Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags1-55

The SRS airbags deploy with considerable speed and force.
Occupants who are out of proper position when the SRS airbag
deploys could suffer very serious injuries. Because the SRS air-bag needs enough space for deployment, the driver should al-ways sit upright and well back in the seat as far from the steeringwheel as practical while still maintaining full vehicle control and
the front passenger should move the seat as far back as possibleand sit upright and well back in the seat. Do not place any objects over or near the SRS airbag cover or
between you and the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag deploys,those objects could interfere with its proper operation and could
be propelled inside the car and cause injury. Put children aged 12 and under in the rear seat properly re-
strained at all times. The SRS airbag deploys with considerablespeed and force and can injure or even kill children, especially ifthey are 12 years of age and under and are not restrained or im-properly restrained. Because children are lighter and weaker than
adults, their risk of being injured from deployment is greater.
For that reason, we strongly recommend that ALL children (in-cluding those in child seats and those that have outgrown child
restraint devices) sit in the REAR seat properly restrained at alltimes in a child restraint device or in a seatbelt, whichever is ap-propriate for the child ’s age, height and weight.
Secure ALL types of child restraint devices (including forwardfacing child seats) in the REAR seats at all times.According to accident statistics, children are safer when properlyrestrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seatingpositions.For instructions and precautions concerning the child restraint
system, see the “Child restraint systems ” section in this chapter.
NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FACING CHILD SEAT IN THE
FRONT SEAT. DOING SO RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TOTHE CHILD BY PLACING THE CHILD ’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO
THE SRS AIRBAG. Never allow a child to stand up, or to kneel on the front pas-
senger’ s seat, or never hold a child on your lap or in your arms.
