CAUTION

■

When installing a child restraint system

●

When a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is posi-

tioned 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 sudden braking, sudden

swerving or an accident.

●

Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted.

●

Push and pull the child restraint system from side to side and forward to be sure it

is secure.

●

After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.

●

Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system manufac-

turer.

■

Do not use a seat belt extender

If a seat belt extender is used when installing a child restraint 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.

■

To correctly attach a child restraint system to the anchors

When using the LATCH anchors, be sure that there are no foreign objects around

the anchors and that the seat belt is not caught behind the child restraint system.

Make sure the child restraint system is securely attached, or it may cause death or

serious injury to the child or other passengers in the event of a sudden braking, sud-

den swerve or accident.
