Always follow the directions of the child restraint
manufacturer when installing your child re-
straint. Not all child restraint systems will be
installed as described here.
To Install A ISOFIX-compatible Child
Restraint
1. If the selected seating position has a Swit-
chable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) seat
belt, stow the seat belt, following the instruc-
tions below. See the section "Installing Child
Restraints Using the Vehicle Seat Belt" to check
what type of seat belt each seating position has.
2. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps
and on the tether strap of the child seat so that
you can more easily attach the hooks or con-
nectors to the vehicle anchorages.

3. Place the child seat between the lower an-
chorages for that seating position. For some
second row seats, you may need to recline the
seat and / or raise the head restraint to get a
better fit.
4. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the
child restraint to the lower anchorages in the
selected seating position.
5. If the child restraint has a tether strap, con-
nect it to the top tether anchorage. See the
section "Installing Child Restraints Using the
Top Tether Anchorage" for directions to attach a
tether anchor.
6. Tighten all of the straps as you push the child
restraint rearward and downward into the seat.
Remove slack in the straps according to the
child restraint manufacturer's instructions.
7. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly
by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the
belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch
(25.4 mm) in any direction.
