CAUTION

■

When installing the child restraint system

Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual and fix

the child restraint system securely in place.

If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other passen-

gers may be injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving

or an accident.

●

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 tab are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted.

●

Push and pull the child seat 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.

●

If the driver’s seat position does not allow

sufficient space for safe installation on the

left-hand rear seat, install the child restraint

on the right-hand rear seat.

●

Only put a forward-facing or booster child

seat on the front seat when unavoidable.

When

installing

a

forward-facing

or

booster child seat on the front passenger

seat, move the seat as far back as possible

even if AIRBAG OFF indicator light is illu-

minated.

Failing to do so may result in injury or even

death if the airbags deploy (inflate).
