facing position only.CAUTION
Never install a rearfacing child re-
straint system on the front passen-
ger seat even if the front passenger

tem on the second (or third) seat if
it interferes with the lock mecha-
nism of the front (or second) seats.

not allow sufficient space for safe
installation, install the child re-
straint system on the second right
