B Installing child restraint systems in the 2-point type seat belt
position (Rear center seating position)
1. Adjust both rear seatbacks to fit the child restraint system, placing
them as upright as possible. Make sure that both seatbacks are at the
same angle and securely locked into place.
2. Set the child restraint system in the center seating position.
3. Run the 2-point type seat belt through or around the child restraint
system following the instructions provided by its manufacturer.
4. Insert the tongue plate into the buckle.
5. Tighten the seat belt.
6. Before having a child sit in the child restraint system, move it back
and forth to check if it is firmly secured. Sometimes a child restraint
can be more firmly secured by pushing it down into the seat cushion
and then tightening the seatbelt.
If the child restraint system requires a top strap, latch the hook onto
the top strap anchor and tighten the top strap.

NOTE
When the child restraint system is no longer in use, remove it and
restore the ELR function of the retractor. That function is restored
by allowing the seat belt to retract fully.
