Set the front passenger seat belt as high up as possible.

When using a child seat where there is a height adjuster in the upper area,
the height of the passenger seat belt is to be set so that the belt is not
"kinked" in the height adjuster. In the event of an accident, there is the risk
of injury to the neck of the child carried due to the seat belt!
