See the section "Installing Child Restraints Us-
ing the Vehicle Seat Belt" for the steps to
properly lock the seat belt over the child re-
straint.
Child restraint systems with ISOFIX anchor-
ages are available for installing the child re-
straint system to the vehicle without using the
vehicle's seat belts.
Group 0 And 0+
Fig. A
Safety experts recommend that children ride
rearward facing in the vehicle as long as pos-
sible. Infants up to 13 kg must be restrained in
a rear-facing seat like the child seat shown in
fig. A. This type of child restraint supports the
child's head and does not induce stress on the
neck in the event of sudden decelerations or a
crash.
The rear-facing child restraint is restrained by
the vehicle's seat belts, as shown in fig. A. The
child seat restrains the child with its own har-
ness.
WARNING!
• Never place a rear-facing child restraint in
front of an air bag. A deploying passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death
or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a rear-facing
child restraint.
• Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a
vehicle with a rear seat.
Group 1
Fig. B
Children who weigh between 9 kg and 18 kg
may be carried in a Group 1, forward facing seat
like the one in fig. B. This type of child restraint
is for older children who are too big for a Group
0 or 0+ child restraint.
