raint system, press the re-
lease button on the seatbelt buckle and allow the belt
to retract completely. The bel t will return to ELR mode.
If you have any question concerning proper child re-
straint system installation, ask your SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
When the child restraint system is no longer in
use, remove it and restore the ELR function of the
retractor. The function is restored by retracting
the seatbelt fully. „Installation of child restraint systems
by use of lower and tether anchorages (LATCH)
yChild restraint systems and seatbelts can be-
come hot in a vehicle that has been closed up
in sunny weather; they could burn a small child.
Check the child restraint system before you
place a child in it. y Do not leave an unsecured child restraint
system in your vehicle. Unsecured child re-
straint systems can be thrown around inside of the vehicle in a sudden stop, turn or accident;
they can strike and injure vehicle occupants as
well as result in serious injuries or death to the
child.
When you install a child restraint system, fol-
low the manufacturer’s instructions supplied
with it. After installing the child restraint sys-
tem, check to ensure that it is held securely in
position. If it is not held tight and secure, the
danger of your child suffering personal injury in
the event of an accident may be increased.

Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
– CONTINUED –
Some types of child restra int systems can be installed
on the rear seat of your ve hicle without use of the seat-
belts. Such child restraint systems are secured to the
dedicated anchorages provided on the vehicle body.
The lower and tether anchorages are sometimes re-
ferred to as the LATCH system ( Lower Anchors and
T ethers for CHildren).
Your vehicle is equipped with four lower anchorages
(bars) on the back panel behind the markings on the
bottom part of the rear seatback and two upper an-
chorages (tether anchorages) on the back side of the
seatback for accommodating such child restraint sys-
tems. The lower anchorages (bars) are used for installing a child restraint system
on the rear seat. For each seat-
ing position of the rear seat, two lower anchorages are
provided.
The tether anchorages (upper anchorages) are also
provided for each seating position of the rear seat.
You will find marks “ ” at the bottom of the rear
seat seatbacks. These mar ks indicate the positions of
the lower anchorages (bars).

Installing a booster seat
yChild restraint systems and seatbelts can be-
come hot in a vehicle that has been closed up
in sunny weather; they could burn a small child.
Check the child restraint system before you
place a child in it. y Do not leave an unsecured child restraint
system in your vehicle. Unsecured child re-
straint systems can be thrown around inside of
the vehicle in a sudden stop, turn or accident;
they can strike and injure vehicle occupants as
well as result in serious injuries or death to the
child.
When you install a child restraint system, fol-
low the manufacturer’s instructions supplied

Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
– CONTINUED –
Put children aged 12 and under in the rear seat
properly restrained at all times. The SRS airbag
deploys with considerable speed and force and
can injure or even kill children, especially if
they are 12 years of age and under and are not
restrained or improperly restrained. Because
children are lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from deployment is
greater.
Consequently, we strongly recommend that
ALL children (including those in child seats and
those that have outgrown child restraint devic- es) sit in the REAR seat properly restrained at
all times in a child restraint device or in a seat-
belt, whichever is appropriate for the child’s
age, height and weight.
Secure ALL types of child restraint devices (in-
cluding forward facing child seats) in the REAR
seats at all times.
According to accident st
atistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the rear seat-
ing positions than in the front seating posi- tions.
For instructions and precautions concerning
the child restraint system, see the “Child re-
straint systems” section in this chapter. y NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FACING
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT SEAT. DOING SO
RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE
CHILD BY PLACING TH E CHILD’S HEAD TOO
CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG. y Never allow a child to stand up, or to kneel on
the front passenger’s seat, or never hold a child
on your lap or in your arms. The SRS airbag de-
ploys with considerable force and can injure or
even kill the child.
