For safety and security
When securing some types of child restraint systems in rear seat, it
may not be possible to properly use the seat belts in positions next
to the child restraint without interfering with it or affecting seat belt
effectiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits snugly across your shoul-
der and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it interferes with the
child restraint, move to a different position.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
● When installing a child restraint in the rear seats, adjust the front
seat so that it does not interfere with the child or child restraint
system (if equipped).
● When installing a child seat with support base in the front seats, if
the child seat interferes with the seatback when latching it into
the support base, adjust the seatback rearward until there is no
interference.
● If the seat belt shoulder
anchor is ahead of the child
seat belt guide, move the
seat cushion forward.
● When installing a junior seat in the front seats, if the child in your
child restraint system is in a very upright position, adjust the seat-
back angle to the most comfortable position. And if the seat belt
shoulder anchor is ahead of the child seat belt guide, move the
seat cushion forward.
