Rear-facing
When you install a rear-facing child restraint system
in a rear outer or centre seat, follow these steps:
1. Slide the front passenger seat as far backwards
as possible and slide the rear bench seat for-
wards.
2. Position the rear-facing child restraint system on
the rear seat.
Always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use.3. Route the seat belt tongue through the child re-
straint system and insert it into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.
To prevent slack in the lap belt, it will be neces-
sary to secure the shoulder belt in place with a
locking clip
jA . Use a locking clip attached to
the child restraint system, or one which is equiva-
lent in dimensions and strength.
Be sure to follow the child restraint system
manufacturer’s instructions for belt routing.
4. Test the child restraint system before you place
the child in it. Tilt it from side to side. Try to tug it
forward and check if it is held securely in place.
Then adjust the rear bench seat so that the edge
of the child restraint touches the front seat.
5. Check to make sure that the child restraint sys-
tem is properly secured prior to each use.

Labels are attached to the seat cushion to help you
locate the ISOFIX system anchors.
CAUTION
•The child restraint may also require the use of
a top tether strap. See “Top tether strap for
child restraint” later in this section for instal-
lation instructions. Alternatively, the child re-
straint may require an anti-rotation device
such as support leg. Refer to the child re-
straint system manufacturer’s instructions.

into the lower anchor area and feeling to make sure
there are no obstructions over the ISOFIX system
anchors, such as seat belt webbing or seat cushion
material. The child restraint will not be secured prop-
erly if the ISOFIX system anchors are obstructed.
1. To install the ISOFIX system compatible child
restraint, insert the child restraint ISOFIX systemanchor attachments into the anchor points on the
rear seat. See “Top tether strap for child
restraint” later in this section for top tether strap

outer seat cushions (refer to the ISOFIX label for
appropriate locations).
3. After attaching the child restraint and before plac-
ing the child in it, use force to tilt the child re-
straint from side to side and tug it forward to
make sure that the child restraint is securely held
in place. Make sure that both ISOFIX anchor-
ages have latched correctly.
4. Check to make sure that the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use.

“FLEXI-BOARD” SYSTEM
(where fitted)
The “Flexi-board” system is a wetjDordryjE dual
surface, and dual position system that allows differ-
ent luggage compartment arrangements. The lug-
gage floor boards can be rearranged as illustrated:
Upper positionjA
This position provides a flat load floor (the rear seat
backs can also be folded forward see “Rear seat” in
the “1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental
restraint system” section). It also serves as a con-
cealed load area for objects placed below the pan-
els.
Lower positionjB
This position maximises the load space in the lug-
gage compartment.
In order to rearrange the “Flexi-board” system lay-
out, proceed as follows:
•Remove the larger panelj1 and slide it into the
lower positionjB).
•Repeat the operation with the smaller panelj2.
Vertical positionsjC
These positions provide further sub-divisions of the
luggage space by standing either one of the boards
vertically in the midway slots provided in the side
trim.
CAUTION
•The carpet finishjE should face up for all dry
use applications.
•The smooth surfacejD should be used only
when loading wet objects.
•Load should be distributed evenly and not ex-
ceed 50 kg (110 lb) on any of the panels.
•To avoid any damage, the panels should be
placed in the lower positionjB for heavy loads
and securely held with ropes or straps to pre-
vent any load shift. See “Utility hooks (where
fitted)” later in this section.

not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In
a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.
•Use suitable ropes and hooks to secure cargo.

area. It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
luggage area inside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to
be seriously injured or killed.

vehicle that is not equipped with seats and
seat belts.
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using the adequate seat belt properly.
•Only two anchorage points identified by the
top tether labels can be used for top tether
strap anchorage. Under no circumstances
should the luggage hooks be used for top
tether strap anchorage.
WARNING
•Remove the ignition key from the ignition
switch or take the Intelligent Key (where fit-
ted) with you when leaving unattended chil-
dren inside the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches.
•Make sure that all passengers have their
hands, etc. inside the vehicle before closing
the windows with either the driver’s side main
switch or passenger’s side switch.
