ment where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the vehicle locked with the rear seat-

of the seat cushion near the seatback (as illustrated).
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
installation instructions.
2. Fit the ISOFIX funnel guides (supplied with the
ISOFIX child seat – where fitted) to the vehicle
ISOFIX brackets located at the base of the rear
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.
NOTE

on the rear seat, set the rear sliding bench
seat to its rearmost position and the front
passenger seat as far forward as possible.
•For rearward facing ISOFIX child restraint
on the rear seat, slide the front passenger
seat as far backwards as possible and slide
the rear bench seat forwards until the edge
of the child restraint touches the front seat.

•The child restraint anchor points are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses.
•The child restraint top tether strap may be
damaged by contact with the rear parcel shelf
or items in the luggage compartment area.
Remove the rear parcel shelf from the vehicle
or secure it in the luggage compartment area.

3-14Pre-driving checks and adjustments

During the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles), follow these
recommendations for the future reliability and
economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow the
recommendations may result in shortened engine
life and reduced engine performance.
•Avoid driving for long periods at a constant
speed, either fast or slow.
•Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
•Avoid quick starts.
•Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
•Do not tow a trailer during the first 800 km (500
miles).
NOTE
Models with K9K diesel engine will achieve top
performance only after approximately 5,000 km
(3,000 miles).
WARNING
The driving characteristics of your vehicle can be
changed remarkably by any additional load and
its distribution as well as by adding optional
equipment (trailer couplings, roof racks, etc.).
Your driving style and speed have to be adjusted
accordingly. Especially when carrying heavy
loads, your speed must be reduced adequately.
•Make sure the area around the vehicle is free of
obstacles.
•Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant,
brake and clutch fluid, and window washer fluid
as frequently as possible, at least whenever you
refuel.
•Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and
condition. Also check the tyre pressure for
proper inflation.
•Maintenance items in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section should be checked peri-
odically.
•Check that all windows and light lenses are
clean.
•Check that all doors are closed.
•Position the seat and adjust the head restraints.
•Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.
•Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to
do likewise.
•Check the operation of the warning/indicator
lights when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position.
•Do not place hard or heavy objects on the dash-
board or rear parcel shelf in order to prevent
injury in the event of a sudden stop.
