CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE
(where fitted)
Your vehicle is designed to accommodate achild
restraint system on the rear seat. When installing a
child restraint system, carefully read and follow the instructions in this manual and those supplied with
the child restraint system. WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to with-
stand only those loads imposed by correctly fit-
ted child restraints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or
for attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle. Doing so could damage the child re-
straint anchorages. The child restraint will not be
properly installed using the damaged anchorage,
and achild could be seriously injured or killed in
ac ollision.
ISOFIX Top Tether anchor location The anchor point is
astrap loop located on the top
of the second row centre seatback ➁.T
here are
two similar straps at the back of the 2nd row outer
seats that are intended only as guide loops ➀.
If the child restraint manufacturer recommends that
the top tether strap be attached, attach and tighten
the top tether strap to the top tether anchor (loop).
Refer to the child restraint instructions and the fol-
lowing steps.
1. On the rear right outboard seating position:
1) Remove the head restraint of the rear right
outboard seat.
2) Route the top tether strap ➀through the
right top tether guide (loop) ➁and under the
centre shoulder belt ➂.
3) Attach the top tether strap ➀to the top tether
anchor (loop) ➃at the rear centre seating
position. 2.
On the rear left outboard seating position:
1) Remove the head restraint of the rear left out-
board seat.
2) Route the top tether strap ➀through the left
top tether guide (loop) ➄.
3) Attach the top tether strap ➀to the top tether
anchor (loop) ➃at the rear centre seating
position.
3. On the rear left and right seat simultaneous
use:
1) Follow steps 1to3for each individual seat
fitment but do not tighten the straps until both
seats are anchored.
2) Then tighten each seat in turn taking care to ensure equal tension.
Tighten the top tether according to the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION
After installing the required child restraint sys-
tem please ensure all portions of anchor straps
are securely tensioned.
When the top tether strap is properly tightened, the
top tether anchor (loop) may bend. This is normal
and will not damage the vehicle. NIC2805 JVR0422XZ

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING ISOFIX WARNING
• Attach ISOFIX and i-Size child restraints only
at the specified locations. For the ISOFIX
lower anchor locations, see “ISOFIX lower an-
chor point locations” earlier in this section. If
ac hild restraint is not secured properly, your
child could be seriously injured or killed in an
accident.
• Do not install child restraints that require the
use of
atop tether strap to seating positions
that do not have atop tether anchor.
• Do not secure
achild restraint in the centre
rear seating position using the ISOFIX lower
anchors. The child restraint will not be se-
cured properly.
• Inspect the lower anchors by inserting your
fingers into the lower anchor area and feeling
to make sure there are no obstructions over the ISOFIX anchors, such as seat belt web-
bing or seat cushion material. The child re-
straint will not be secured properly if the
ISOFIX anchors are obstructed.
• Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stance are they to be used for adult seat belts,
harnesses or for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle. Doing so could damage the child restraint anchorages. The
child restraint will not be properly installed
using the damaged anchorage, and
achild
could be seriously injured or killed in acolli-
sion.

1-28 Safety —seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

•
The seat belts and the supplemental side-im-
pact air bags and supplemental curtain side-
impact air bags are most effective when you are sitting well back and upright in the seat.
The supplemental side-impact air bags and
supplemental curtain side-impact air bags in-
flate with great force. If you and your passen-
gers are unrestrained, leaning forward, sitting
sideways, or out of position in any way, you
and your passengers are at greater risk of
injury or death in an accident.
• Do not allow anyone to place their hands, legs
or face near the supplemental side-impact air
bags and supplemental curtain side-impact
air bags located on the sides of the seatback
of the front seats or near the side roof rails.
Do not allow anyone sitting in the front seats
or rear outboard seats to extend their hands
out of the windows or lean against the doors.
Some examples of dangerous riding positions
are shown in the illustrations.
• When sitting in the rear seats, do not hold
onto the seatback of the front seats. If the
supplemental side-impact air bags and
supplemental curtain side-impact air bags in-
flate, you may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who should always
be properly restrained.
• Do not use seat covers on the front seatbacks.
They may interfere with the supplemental
side-impact air bag inflations. •
Do not attach the key with heavy objects, hard
objects or objects with sharp edges. This may
cause injury if the supplemental knee air bag
inflates.
Pre-tensioner seat belt system
(where fitted)
The pre-tensioner seat belt system may activate with the supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the front seat belt retrac-
tors and anchors, it helps tighten the seat belt the
instant the vehicle becomes involved in certain types
of collisions, helping to restrain front seat occupants.
(See “Seat belts” earlier in this section.)
Air bag warning labels
➀ SRS air bag warning label: The warning label
is located on the surface of the front pas-
senger sun visor.
➁ SRS front passenger air bag warning label:
The warning label is located on the outer side
of the instrument panel (passenger side). ➂
SRS side air bag warning label: The warning
label is located on the side of the passenger
side centre pillar. Tags are also sewn into the
front seat covers.
SRS front-impact passenger air bag:
The warning label ➀is located on the sun visor.
“NEVER use arearward facing child restraint on
as eat protected by an ACTIVE AIR BAG in front
of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD
can occur.”
The BACK SEAT is the SAFEST place for children
aged 12 and under. Always use seat belts and
child restraints. For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, you must always wear
your safety belt. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the air bag. Do not place any objects
over the air bag or between the air bag and your-
self. If the air bag warning light stays on or is
flashing when the ignition is placed in the ON
position, go to an approved dealer or qualified
workshop. Air bags can only be removed or dis-
posed of by an approved dealer or qualified work-
shop.
Be sure to read the “AIR BAG LABEL” description
at the end of this manual.
In vehicles equipped with afront-impact passenger
air bag system, use arear-facing child restraint sys-
tem only on the rear seats. NP A1155
