● Follow all installation instructions pro-
vided by the child restraint system
manufacturer.
● When installing the child restraint sys-
tem with the head restraint being
raised, after the head restraint has
been raised and then the top tether
anchorage has been fixed, do not
lower the head restraint.
● When installing a child restraint system
in the rear center seat, adjust both seat
cushions to the same position and
align both seatbacks at the same
angle. The seatbacks must be adjusted
to 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.
● If the seat is adjusted, reconfirm the
security of the child restraint system.
