Headrest
The vehicle’s front and rear seats
have adjustable headrests. The head-
rests provide comfort for passengers,
but more impor tantly they are
designed to help protect passengers
from whiplash and other neck and
spinal injuries during an accident,
especially in a rear impact collision.
To prevent damage, NEVER hit or
pull on the headrests.
NOTICE
When there is no occupant in
the rear seats, adjust the height
of the headrest to the lowest
position. The rear seat headrest
can reduce the visibility of the
rear area.
CAUTION
To r e d u c e t h e r i s k o f s e r i o u s
injury or death in an accident,
take the following precautions
when adjusting your headrests:
•Always properly adjust the
headrests for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.
•NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the headrest removed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•
Adjust the headrests so the
middle of the headrests is at
the same height as the height
of the top of the eyes.
•NEVER adjust the headrest
position of the driver’s seat
when the vehicle is in motion.
•Adjust the headrest as close
to the passenger’s head as
possible. Do not use a seat
cushion that holds the body
away from the seatback.
•Make sure the headrest locks
into position after adjusting it.

Booster seats
A booster seat is a restraint designed
to improve the fit of the vehicle’s seat
belt system. A booster seat positions
the seat belt so that it fits properly
over the stronger par ts of your child’s
body. Keep your children in booster
seats until they are big enough to fit in
a seat belt properly.
For a seat belt to fit properly, the lap
belt must lie snugly across the upper
thighs, not the stomach. The shoulder
belt should lie snug across the shoul-
der and chest and not across the neck
or face. Children under age 13 must
always ride in the rear seats and must
always be properly restrained to mini-
mize the risk of injury in an accident,
sudden stop or sudden maneuver.
Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
After selecting a proper child restraint
and checking that the child restraint
fits properly in the rear of this vehicle,
you are ready to install the child
restraint according to the manufac-
turer’s instruction. There are three
general steps in installing the seat
properly:
•Properly secure the child restraint
to the vehicle.All child restraints
must be secured to the vehicle with
the lap belt or lap part of a lap/shoul-
der belt or with the ISOFIX top-teth-
er anchorage and/or ISOFIX lower
anchorage (if equipped).
•Make sure the child restraint is
firmly secured.After installing a
child restraint to the vehicle, push
and pull the seat forward and from
side-to-side to verify that it is
securely attached to the seat. A
child restraint secured with a seat
belt should be installed as firmly as
possible. However, some side-to-
side movement can be expected.
Before installing your child
restraint always:
•Read and follow the instruc-
tions provided by the manu-
facturer of the child restraint.
•Read and follow the instruc-
tions regarding child restraint
systems in this manual.
Failure to follow all warnings
and instructions could increase
the risk of the SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH if an accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle headrest prevents
proper installation of a child
seat, the headrest of the respec-
tive seating position shall be
readjusted or entirely removed.

For vehicles with adjustable head-
rest, route the tether strap under
the headrest and between the
headrest posts, otherwise route
the tether strap over the top of the
seatback.

the appropriate child restraint
hook holder and tighten to secure
the child restraint seat.

Ta k e t h e f o l l o w i n g p r e c a u t i o n s
when installing the top-tether
strap:
•Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with
your child restraint system.
•NEVER attach more than one
child restraint to a single
ISOFIX top-tether anchorage.
This could cause the anchor-
age or attachment to come
loose or break.
•Do not attach the top-tether
strap to anything other than
the correct ISOFIX top-tether
anchorage. It may not work
properly if attached to some-
thing else.
•Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only
those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints.
Under no circumstances are
they to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses or for
attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
