Restraint of larger children
As children grow, they may need to
use new child-restraint systems,including larger child seats or boost-
er seats, which are appropriate for
their increased size.
A child who has outgrown available
child-restraint systems should use
the belts provided in the vehicle.When seated in the rear outboard
seats, the child should be restrained
by the lap/shoulder belt.
If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, tryplacing the child closer to the centre
of the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck they may
need to be returned to a child
restraint system. In addition, after-
market devices are available from
independent manufacturers which
help pull the shoulder belt down and
away from the child’s face or neck.Child restraint system (if equipped)
For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat is
strongly recommended. This child
seat or infant seat should be of
appropriate size for the child andshould be installed in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
It is further recommended that the
seat be placed in the vehicle's rear
seat since this can make an impor-
tant contribution to safety.
Children riding in the car should sit
on the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in therear seats than in the front seat.Larger children should use one of
the seat belts provided.WARNING
- Shoulder
belts on small children
Never allow a shoulder belt to be in contact with a child’s
neck or face while the vehicleis in motion.
If safety belts are not properly worn and adjusted, there is a
risk of death or serious injury
to such a child.

(Continued)
Since a safety belt or child
restraint system can become
very hot if it is left in a closed
vehicle, be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.
When the child restraint sys- tem is not in use, store it in the
trunk or fasten it with a safetybelt so that it will not be
thrown forward in the case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
Children who are too large to be in a child restraint shouldsit in the rear seat and be
restrained with the available
lap/shoulder belts. Never
allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat.
(Continued)
You are required by law to use safe-
ty restraints for children. If small chil-
dren ride in your vehicle you must
put them in a child restraint system
(safety seat). Children could be injured or killed in
a crash if their restraints are not
properly secured. For small children
and babies, a child seat or infant seat
must be used. Before buying a par-
ticular child restraint system, make
sure it fits your car and seat belts,
and fits your child. Follow all the
instructions provided by the manu-
facturer when installing the child
restraint system.

WARNING
A child restraint system must be placed in the rear seat.
Never install a child or infant
seat on the front passenger'sseat. Should an accident occur and
cause the passenger airbag to
deploy, it could severely injure
or kill an infant or child seated
in an infant or child seat. Thus,
only use a child restraint in
the rear seat of your vehicle.

Installation on the rear seats(Continued)
Always make sure that theshoulder belt portion of the
outboard lap/shoulder belt is
positioned midway over the
shoulder, never across the
neck or behind the back.
Moving the child closer to the
centre of the vehicle may help
provide a good shoulder belt
fit. The lap belt portion of thelap/shoulder belt or the centre
seat lap belt must always be
positioned as low as possible
on the child's hips and as
snug as possible.
If the seat belt will not proper- ly fit the child, we recommend
the use of an approved boost-
er seat in the rear seat in order
to raise the child's seatingheight so that the seat belt will
properly fit the child.
(Continued)(Continued)
Never allow a child to stand upor kneel on the seat.
Never use an infant carrier or child safety seat that "hooks"
over a seatback; it may not
provide adequate security inan accident.
Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they
are in a moving vehicle, asthis could result in serious
injury to the child in the event
of an accident or a sudden
stop. Holding a child in a mov-
ing vehicle does not provide
the child with any means of
protection during an accident,
even if the person holding the
child is wearing a seat belt.
WARNING
Before installing the child restraint system, read the
instructions supplied by the
child restraint system manu-
facturer.
Failure to observe this manual instructions regarding childrestraint system and the
instructions provided with the
child restraint system could
increase the chance and/or
severity of injury in an acci-dent.

Installing a child restraint system by
lap/shoulder belt (on the outboard
rear seat)
To install a child restraint system on
the outboard rear seats, do the fol-
lowing:
1. Place the child restraint system in
the desired position.
2. Extend the shoulder/lap belt from its retractor. 3. Route the lap/shoulder belt
through the restraint according to
the seat manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
WARNING
Do not install any child restraint system in the front
passenger seat. Should anaccident occur and cause the
passenger airbag to deploy, it
could severely injure or kill an
infant or child seated in an
infant or child seat. Therefore,
only use a child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat of your
vehicle.
If the child restraint seat is not anchored properly, the risk of
a child being seriously injured
or killed in a collision greatlyincreases.

Securing a child restraint system
with “ISOFIX” system and “Tether Anchorage” system (if equipped)
ISOFIX is a standardised method of fitting child seats that eliminates theneed to use the standard adult seat
belt to secure the seat in the vehicle.
This enables a much more secure
and positive location with the added
benefit of easier and quicker installa-tion. An ISOFIX-seat can only be installed
if it has vehicle-specific approval inaccordance with the requirements ofECE-R44.

On each side of the rear seat,
between the cushion and backrest,are located a pair of ISOFIX anchor-age points together with a top tethermounting on the shelf behind the
rear seats. During the installation,the seat has to be engaged at the
anchorage-points in a way you can
hear it clicking (check by pulling!)
and has to be fixed with the Top
Tether-belt on the belonging point on
the shelf or floor behind rear seats. The installing and the use of a child- seat has to be done according to the
installing-manual, which is added tothe ISOFIX-seat. To secure the child restraint seat
1. To engage the child restraint seat
to the ISOFIX anchor, insert the
child restraint seat latch into the
ISOFIX anchor. Listen for the audi-
ble “click” sound.
2. Connect the tether strap hook to the child restraint hook holder and
tighten to secure the seat. Refer to
“Securing a child restraint seat
with the “Tether Anchorage” sys-
tem” on page 3-52.

WARNING
Do not install a child restraint seat at the centre of the rear
seat using the vehicle's
ISOFIX anchors. The ISOFIX
anchors are only provided for
the left and right outboard rear
seating positions. Do not mis-
use the ISOFIX anchors by
attempting to attach a child
restraint seat in the middle ofthe rear seat to the ISOFIX
anchors. In a crash, the child
restraint seat ISOFIX attach-
ments may not be strong
enough to secure the child
restraint seat properly in thecentre of the rear seat and
may break, causing serious
injury or death.

Driver’s airbag and front passenger’s airbag are designed to supplement
the protection offered by the safety
belt in certain frontal collisions.
Likewise, side airbag and curtainairbags are designed to supplement
the protection offered by the safety
belt in side collisions. Safety belts
are designed to reduce the injury of
the driver or passengers in case of
light impact or collision. However, to
help reduce impact on driver or pas-
sengers in a serious collision, seat
belts must also be correctly worn.

supplement the protection offered by
the safety belt system. IT IS NOT A
SUBSTITUTE FOR THE SAFETY
BELT.
