WARNING
■
When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●
Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted around
a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used to cut the
belt.
●
Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted.
●
Shake the child restraint system left and right, and forward and backward to ensure
that it has been securely installed.
●
After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.
●
Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer.
●
When securing some types of child restraint systems in rear seats, it may not be
possible to properly use the seat belts in positions next to the child restraint without
interfering with it or affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits snugly
across your shoulder and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it interferes with the child
restraint, move to a different position. Failure to do so may result in death or serious
injury.
●
When installing a child restraint system in the rear center seat, adjust both seatbacks
at the same angle. Otherwise, the child restraint system cannot be securely restrained
and this may cause death or serious injuries in the event of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or an accident.
■
Do not use a seat belt extender
If a seat belt extender is used when installing a child restraint system, the seat belt will
not securely hold the child restraint system, which could cause death or serious injury
to the child or other passengers in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
