For small children and babies, the use of a child
seat or infant seat is strongly recommended.
This child seat or infant seat should be of
appropriate size for the child and should be
installed in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. It is further recommended that the
seat be placed in the vehicle's rear seat since
this can make an important contribution to safe-
ty.
Your vehicle is provided with three child re-
straint hook holders for installing the child seat
or infant seat.
