Child restraint systems specifically designed for infants and small children are offered byseveral manufacturers. Choose only a child restraint system with a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard 213 (FMVSS 213) or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and
Booster Seats Safety
Regulations (RSSR).
Look for the manufac-
turer’s statement of compliance on the box and child restraint system itself. The child restraint syst
em should be appropri-
ate for your child’s weight and height, and should properly fit your
vehicle’s seat.
For detailed information, refer to the instruc-tion manual accompanying the child restraint system. All children should be
properly restrained in
a restraint device that offers the maximumprotection for their size and age as specified by local, state, or provincial laws. Be sure to check local, state, or provincialrequirements for child si
ze and age that may
vary from the recommendations listed below.
Children less than 2 years old and who weigh 22 pounds (10 kg) or less MUSTride in a rear-facing child safety seat that MUST ONLY be used in the rear seat. Children older than 2 years of age and who weigh less than 40 pounds (18 kg) or who are less than 40 inches (100 cm) tall must be in a forwar
d-facing restraint used
only in the rear seat. Children who weigh more than 40 pounds (18 kg) or who are more than 40 inches (100 cm) tall, regard
less of age, should
use a suitable child seat or a booster seatin the rear seat until
the vehicle’s lap-and-
shoulder belt fits
them properly.
Recommendations for child restraint system selection
WA R N I N G All children must be seated in the rear seat, and properly restrained.Accident statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are
safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat, rather than inthe front seat. Be sure to select a child restraint system that is appropriate not only for the child’s size and age but also for your vehicle. Some child restraint systems may not fityour vehicle properly.
Any child who is too large to use a child restraint system should ride in the rearseat and wear the lap-and-shoulder beltproperly. The shoulder belt must be posi- tioned over the should
er and across the
chest, not across their neck, and with thelap belt positioned low on the child’s hips, not across their stomach. If necessary, a booster seat should be
used to help achieve
a proper seat belt fit. Follow the booster seat manufacturer’s instructions. Only use a booster seat that is
certified as comply-
ing with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Motor Vehicle Restraint Sys- tems and Booster Seats Safety Regula-tions. Never hold an infant
or child in your arms
or on your lap when ri
ding in this vehicle,
even when you are wearing your seat belt. Never place any part of the seat belt youare wearing around an infant or child. Failure to follow these simple instructions creates a risk of serious injury or death toyour child in the even
t of an accident or
sudden stop.WA R N I N G

WA R N I N G Your vehicle is also
equipped with a front
passenger’s airbag.Never put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas-senger seat. This places the infant too close to the passenger’s airbag. During deployment of that airbag, the infant canbe seriously injured
or killed.
Rear-facing
child restraint systems or infant restraint systems must only be used in the rear seat.
WA R N I N G FRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS should be used in the rear seatwhenever possible. If one must be used in the front passenger seat, move the seat to the most rearward position and make surethe child stays in the child restraint sys- tem, properly restrained. Failure to follow these instructions could result in seriousinjury or death to the child.Airbag
WA R N I N G It is important to use an approved rear- facing infant restraint until the infant isone year old (unless
the infant outgrows
the seat sooner). This allows the infant’s neck and spine to de
velop enough to sup-
port the weight of their head in the eventof an accident. When installing a child restraint system, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and follow the directions in this manual. Failure to do so can result inserious injury or deat
h to your child in an
accident or sudden stop. After installation, push
and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side to side, to see that it is firmly secured. Ifthe child restraint system is not installed securely, it may cause injury to the child or other occupants in
the event of an acci-
dent or sudden stop. When not in use, keep your child restraint system secured with the seat belt, or remove it from the vehi
cle, in order to pre-
vent it from being
thrown around inside
the vehicle during an accident.

5. After confirming that the belt is locked, grab the shoulder part of the belt near thebuckle and pull up to remove any slack from the lap part of the belt allowing the slack to feed into the retractor. Remember,if the lap belt portion is not tight, the child restraint system will not be secure. It may help to put your weight on the childrestraint system and/or push on its seat- back while pulling up on the belt (See illustration). 6. Open the cover from the tether anchor installation point by
pulling it back with
your hand as illustrated below (6).
7. Latch the tether strap hook (A) of the child restraint system to the tether anchor(B) as illustrated below (7) and tighten the top tether strap so it is securely fastened. 8. Before putting your child in the restraint, push and pull the restra
int in all directions
to be sure it is firmly secure. Do this before each use. If
the child restraint sys-
tem is not firmly secure, repeat steps 1 through 7.
9. To remove a child restraint system from the vehicle and deactivate the ALR mode,remove the child from the restraint. Unlatch the buckle. Then remove the belt from the restraint and let the belt fullyretract.
10. Reinstall the head restraint.
Refer to “Head restraints” on page 4-5.

Children who have outgr
own a child restraint
system should be seated in the rear seat and wear the seat belt. If the shoulder belt crossestheir face or neck, and/
or the lap belt crosses
their stomach, a commercially available booster seat must be used to raise the child sothat the shoulder belt
crosses their shoulder
and the lap belt remains positioned low across their hips. The
booster seat should fit
the vehicle seat and have a label certifying compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Mo
tor Vehicle Restraint
Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regula- tions.
If your child restraint system requires the use of a tether strap, fasten the tether strap in accordance with the following procedures.
WA R N I N G Child restraint system tether anchors are designed only to with
stand loads from cor-
rectly fitted child restraint systems. Underno circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harn
esses, or for attach-
ing other items or equipment to the vehi-cle.

Reference lines and upper surface of the rear bumper (A) are displayed on the screen. The red line (B) i
ndicates approximately
20 inches (50 cm) behind the rear bumper. The Green lines (C) indicate approxi- mately 8 inches (20 cm) outside of the vehicle body. Short transverse lines (1 to 3) indicate dis- tance from the rear bumper.
Reference lines on the screen 1: Approximately at the rear edge of the
rear bumper
2: Approximately 39 inches (100 cm) 3: Approximately 79 inches (200 cm)
CAUTION The rear-view camera uses a wide-angle lens. As a result, imag
es and distances shown
on the screen are not exact. Actual distance may
be different from dis-
tance indica
ted by the lines on the screen,
depending on the loading condition of the vehicle and road
surface condition.
The reference lines for
distance and vehicle
width are based on a level, flat road surface. In the following cases, objects shown on the screen will appear to be farther off than theyactually are.• When the rear of the vehicle is weigheddown with the weight of passengers and luggage in the ve
hicle. (Case 1)
• When there is an upward slope at the back. (Case 2)
Case 1 A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
CAUTION The reference lines for distance and vehicle width are intended to i
ndicate the distance to
a flat object such as a level, flat road surface. They may not indica
te correct distance
depending on the shape of an obstacle.For example, when ther
e is an object behind
the vehicle that has uppe
r sections projecting
in the direction of the vehicle, the referencelines on the screen will
indicate that point A
is the farthest point a
nd point B is the closest
point to the vehicle. In
reality, point A and B
are actually the same distance from the vehi- cle, and point C is fa
rther off than point A
and B.Case 2 A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen

It is very important to know how much weight your vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle capacity weight and includes theweight of all occupants, cargo, non-
factory-installed options, if any, being towed. The tire and loading information placard located on the driver’s door sill of your vehicle willshow how much weight it may prop- erly carry. It is important to familiarize yourself with the following
terms before load-
ing your vehicle:Vehicle maximum load on the tire:load on an individual tire that isdetermined by distributing to each axle its share of the maximum loaded vehicle weight and divid-ing by two.
Parking with the engine run- ning
WA R N I N G Leaving the engine ru
nning risks injury or
death from accidentally moving the gear-shift lever (manual transaxle) or the selec- tor lever (CVT) or from the accumulation of toxic exhaust fumes in the passengercompartment.

WA R N I N G Do not park your vehicle in areas where combustible materials
such as dry grass or
leaves can come in contact with a hotexhaust, since a fire could occur.
Do not keep the steering wheel fully turned for a long time When leaving the vehicle Loading information
WA R N I N GNever overload your vehicle. Overloading can damage your vehicle, adversely affect vehi-cle performance, including handling and braking, cause tire failure, and result in anaccident.
