Child restraint precautions
lMake sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by
the child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properly secured. If
it is not secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child
in the event of emergency braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
n Child restraint lock function belt precaution
Do not allow children to play with the child restraint lock function belt. If the
belt becomes twisted around a child’s neck, it will not be possible to pull the
belt out leading to choking or other serious injuries that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used
to cut the belt.
n When the child restrain t system is not in use
l Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if it is
not in use. Do not store the restraint unsecured in the passenger compart-
ment.
l If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the
vehicle or store it securely in the trunk. This will prevent it from injuring
passengers in the event of emergency braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.

CAUTION
n
When installing a booster seat
Do not fully extend the shoulder belt to prevent the belt from going to ALR
lock mode. ( →P. 47)
In ALR lock mode the belt is locked in that position and cannot be extended,
which could cause injury or discomfort to the child seated in the booster
seat.
n When installing a child restraint system
Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual
and fix the child restraint system securely in place.
If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other
passengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of emer-
gency braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
lWhen a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder. Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury in the event
of emergency braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
lIf the driver’s seat interferes with the
child restraint system and prevents it
from being attached correctly, attach
the child restraint system to the right-
hand rear seat.
l Adjust the front passenger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child
restraint system.
l Only put a forward-facing or booster
child seat on the front seat when
unavoidable. When installing a forward-
facing or booster child seat on the front
passenger seat, move the seat as far
back as possible even if AIR BAG OFF
indicator light is illuminated. Failing to
do so may result in death or serious
injury if the airbags deploy (inflate).
