WARNING!
 Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant
or child restraint. It could come loose in a collision.
The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the
child restraint manufacturer's directions exactly
when installing an infant or child restraint.
 After a child restraint is installed in the vehicle, do
not move the vehicle seat forward or rearward
because it can loosen the child restraint attach-
ments. Remove the child restraint before adjusting
the vehicle seat position. When the vehicle seat has
been adjusted, reinstall the child restraint.
 When your child restraint is not in use, secure it in the
vehicle with the seat belt or ISOFIX anchorages, or
remove it from the vehicle. Do not leave it loose in
the vehicle. In a sudden stop or accident, it could
strike the occupants or seatbacks and cause serious
personal injury.
Seat Belts For Older Children
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear seat belts instead
of using child restraints.
Use this simple 5-step test to decide whether the seat belt
properly fits the child or if they should still use a Group 2
or Group 3 child restraint to improve the fit of the seat belt:
1. Can the child sit all the way back against the back of
the vehicle seat?
2. Do the child's knees bend comfortably over the front
of the vehicle seat while the child is still sitting all the
way back?
3. Does the shoulder belt cross the child's shoulder
between the neck and arm?
4. Is the lap part of the belt as low as possible, touching
the child's thighs and not the stomach?
5. Can the child stay seated like this for the whole trip?
If the answer to any of these questions was "no," then the
child still needs to use a Group 2 or 3 child restraint in this
vehicle. If the child is using the lap/shoulder belt, check
belt fit periodically and make sure the seat belt buckle is
latched. A child's squirming or slouching can move the belt
out of position. If the shoulder belt contacts the face or
neck, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle, or
use a booster seat to position the seat belt on the child
correctly.
WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an
arm or behind their back. In a crash, the shoulder belt
will not protect a child properly, which may result in
serious injury or death. A child must always wear both
the lap and shoulder portions of the seat belt correctly.
ISOFIX Restraint System
Fig. E
Your vehicle is equipped with the child restraint anchorage
system called ISOFIX. This system allows ISOFIX-equipped
child seats to be installed without using the vehicle's seat
belts. The ISOFIX system has two lower anchorages
located at the back of the seat cushion where it meets the
