1-7. Safety information CAUTION n When installing a child restraint system l When installing a child restraint system in the rear center seat, adjust both seat cushions to the same position and align seatbacks at the same angle. The seatbacks must be adjusted to the same angle. Otherwise, the child restraint system cannot be securely restrained and this may cause death or serious injuries in an accident. l When using the LATCH anchors for a child restraint system, move the seat as far back as possible (second seat only), with the seatback close to the child restraint system. l When a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the 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. Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury in the event of an accident or sudden braking. l Ensure that the belt and tab are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted. l Push and pull the child seat from side to side and forward to be sure it is secure. l After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat. l Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer. n 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 an accident. n 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. 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 stop or an accident. 1 Before driving 161
