501-2. Child safety
■Removing a child restraint system 
installed with a seat belt
Press the buckle release button and 
fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the child 
restraint system may spring up due to the 
rebound of the seat cushion. Release the 
buckle while holding down the child 
restraint system.
Since the seat belt automatically reels itself, 
slowly return it to the stowing position.
■Child restraint LATCH anchors
LATCH anchors are provided for the 
each rear seat. (Buttons displaying the 
location of the anchors are attached to 
the seats.)
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may result in death or 
serious injury.
●Do not allow children to play with the 
seat belt. If the seat belt becomes 
twisted around a child’s neck, it may 
lead to choking or other serious inju-
ries that could result  in death. If this 
occurs and the buckle cannot be 
unfastened, scissors should be used to 
cut the belt.
●Ensure that the belt and plate are 
securely locked and the seat belt is not 
twisted.
●Shake the child restraint system left 
and right, and forward and backward 
to ensure that it has been securely 
installed.
●After securing a child restraint system, 
never adjust the seat.
●When a booster seat is installed, 
always ensure that th e 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.
●Follow all installation instructions pro-
vided by the child restraint system 
manufacturer.
■When installing a booster seat
To prevent the belt from going into ALR 
lock mode, do not fully extend the shoul-
der belt. ALR mode causes the belt to 
tighten only. This could cause injury or 
discomfort to the child. ( P.26)
■Do not use a seat belt extender
If a seat belt extender is used when 
installing a child restra int system, the seat 
belt will not securely hold the child 
restraint system, which could cause 
death or serious injury to the child or 
other passengers in the event of sudden 
braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
