CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Children riding in the car should sit in the rear
seat and must always be properly restrained to minimise the risk of injury in an accident,sudden stop or sudden maneuver. Accordingto accident statistics, children are safer whenproperly restrained in the rear seats than inthe front seat. Larger children should use oneof the seat belts provided.
You are required by law to use safety re-
straints for children. If small children ride inyour vehicle you must put them in a childrestraint system (safety seat).
Children could be injured or killed in a crash if
their restraints are not properly secured. Forsmall children and babies, a child seat orinfant seat must be used. Before buying aparticular child restraint system, make sure itfits your car and seat belts, and fits your child.Follow all the instructions provided by themanufacturer when installing the child restraintsystem.
WARNING:
o When using the rear seat centre belt, you must lock all metal tabs and buck-les. If any metal tab or buckle is notlocked, it will increase the chance ofinjury in the event of collision.
o Never unlock the metal tab (a) and the buckle (b) with the following excep-tions.
(1) In case of folding rear seatbacksdown.
(2) If transporting an object on the rear seat may cause damage to the rear seat centre belt.
o Lock the metal tab (a) and the buckle (b) immediately after folding rearseatbacks up.

WARNING:
o A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat. Never install a child or infant seat on the front passenger's seat. Should an accident occur and cause the passenger side airbag to deploy, itcould severely injure or kill an infant orchild seated in an infant or child seat.Thus, only use a child restraint in therear seat of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint system can become very hot if it is leftin a closed vehicle, be sure to check theseat cover and buckles before placing achild there.
o When the child restraint system is not in use, fasten it with a safety belt so thatit will not be thrown forward in the caseof a sudden stop or an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should still sit in the rearseat and be restrained with the avail-able lap/shoulder belts. Never allowchildren to ride in the front passengerseat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt portion of the outboard lap/shoulder beltis positioned midway over the shoul-der, never across the neck or behindthe back. Moving the child closer to thecenter of the vehicle may help provide agood shoulder belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/shoulderbelt or the center seat lap belt mustalways be positioned as low as pos-sible on the child's hips and as snug aspossible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the child, we recommend the use of anapproved booster seat in the rear seatin order to raise the child's seatingheight so that the seat belt will prop-erly fit the child.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks" over aseatback; it may not provide adequatesecurity in an accident.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms whilst they are in a mov-ing vehicle, as this could result in se-rious injury to the child in the event ofan accident or a sudden stop. Holdinga child in a moving vehicle does notprovide the child with any means ofprotection during an accident, even ifthe person holding the child is wearinga seat belt.
o If the child restraint seat is not an- chored properly, the risk of a childbeing seriously injured or killed in acollision greatly increases. B230F01A-EAT Installation on Rear Seat Centre Posi- tion Use the centre seat belt for the rear to secure the child restraint system as illustrated. Afterinstallation of the child restraint system, rockthe child seat back and forth, and side to sideto ensure that it is properly secured by theseat belt.
