Installation of infant and child restraint
systems
This vehicle is equipped with tether an-
chorages for a top tether strap at each of
the rear seating positions.
1 Cover of top anchorage ring
̈ Remove cover 1 from anchorage ring.
̈ Store cover 1 in a convenient place
(e.g. glove box).
̈ Guide tether strap between head re-
straint and top of seat back.
Head restraints must be positioned such
that the top tether strap can pass freely
between the head restraint and top of seat
back.
̈ Make sure the tether strap is not twist-
ed.
2 Hook
3 Anchorage ring
̈ Securely fasten hook 2, which is part
of the tether strap, to anchorage
ring
3.
Children too big for a toddler restraint must
ride in seats using regular seat belts. Posi-
tion shoulder belt across chest and shoul-
der, not face or neck. A booster seat may be
necessary to achieve proper seat belt posi-
tioning for children over 41 lbs until they
reach a height where a lap/shoulder belt fits
properly without a booster.
When the child restraint is not in use,
remove it from the vehicle or secure it with
the seat belt to prevent the child restraint
from becoming a projectile in the event of
an accident.
Do not leave children unattended in the
vehicle, even if the children are secured in a
child restraint system. Unsupervised chil-
dren in a child restraint system may use
vehicle equipment and may cause an acci-
dent and/or serious personal injury.
i
For safety reasons, make sure hook 2 has
attached to ring 3 beyond the safety catch, as
illustrated.
