B230A02TB-DAT CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM If the child is old enough to sit alone and the car is not equipped with a proper child or infant seat, the childshould be placed in the rear seat and restrained with a shoulder/lap belt. Child restraint systems are designed tobe secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt, or by a tether anchor and/or ISOFIXanchors (if installed). o When the child restraint system is
not in use, store it in the luggage
compartment or fasten it with a
safety belt so that it will not be thrown forward in the case of a sudden stop or accident.
o A child restraint system should be placed in the vehicle's rear seatsince this can make an importantcontribution to safety.
o Unrestrained children should not
be carried in the car. Holding achild in your arms is not a satis- factory substitute for a child re- straint system. A child held inthis manner can be crushed be- tween your body and the interior of the car.
o Never allow a child to be held in a person's arms while they are ina moving vehicle. This could re-sult in serious injury or death to the child in the event of an acci- dent or sudden stop. Holding achild in a moving vehicle does not give protection during an ac- cident, even if the person hold-ing the child is wearing a seat belt.
WARNING:
o Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only thoseloads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-stances are they to be used for adult seat belts harnesses or for attaching other items or equip-ment to the vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child re-
straint system can become veryhot if it is left in a closed vehicle, be sure and check the seat cover and buckles before placing achild there.B220C01Y-DAT To Release the Seat Belt When you want to release the seat belt, press the button in the locking buckle. B220C02TB
