Securing a Child Restraint by
using ISOFIX*

seatback meets the back of the seat
cushion.
The location of each lower anchor is
identified by a circular mark on the
lower edge of the rear seatback.

safety belts and safety belt buckles
away from the lower anchors so
they do not interfere with proper
latching.
3. Place the child restraint on the seat.
4. Attach the anchor points on the
child restraint to the anchors in the
vehicle. Follow the instructions that
come with the restraint.
5. To attach the top strap to the top
strap anchor -

ctions to determine when and how to
tighten the top strap. The top strap
anchor brackets are located on the
rear luggage shade.
6. Push and pull the child restraint in
different directions to make sure it is
secure.
7. Make sure the child restraint is not
too hot before placing a child there.

the anchoring system may have been
damaged. Some parts may need to be
repaired or replaced.
Have the anchoring system inspected
after a collision
.
