Before driving
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 inju ry in the event of an accident or sudden
braking.
●Ensure the belt and tab are securely locked and that the seat belt is not twisted.
●Push and pull the child seat in different directions to be sure it is secure.
●Follow all installation instructions provid ed by the child restraint system manufac-
turer.
■Do not use a seat belt extender
If a seat belt extender is used when inst alling 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 a collision.
●When installing a child restraint system in
the third center position, set the both seat-
backs to the same an gle. Otherwise, the
child restraint system cannot be properly
secured.

CAUTION
■To correctly attach a child restraint system to the anchorages
●When using the lower anchorages, be sure that there are no foreign objects
around the anchorages and that the seat belt is not caught behind the child seat.
Make sure the child restraint system is se curely attached, or it may cause death or
serious injury to the child in the event of a sudden stop or accident.
●When using the left side lower anchorages
for the child restraint system, do not sit in
the center seat. Seat belt function may be
impaired, such as being positioned overly
high or loose-fitting, which may result in
death or serious injury in the event of a col-
lision.
