NOTE

The ISOFIX anchors marking on the
cover indicates the position of the
ISOFIX anchors for the attachment
of a child-restraint system.

Store the removed cover so that it
does not get lost.
5. Remove the head restraint. However,
when installing a backless booster seat,
always install the vehicle head restraint
to the seat where the backless booster
seat is installed.
Refer to Head Restraints on page 2-25.
6. Secure the child-restraint system using
the ISOFIX anchor, following the
child-restraint system manufacturer's
instruction.
7. If your child-restraint system came
equipped with a tether, that probably
means it is very important to properly
secure the tether for child safety.
Please carefully follow the
child-restraint system manufacturer's
instructions when installing tethers
(page 2-50).
WARNING
WARNING: child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child restraints.
Under no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses or for
attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
WARNING
Always attach the tether strap to the
correct tether anchor position:
Attaching the tether strap to the incorrect
tether anchor position is dangerous. In a
collision, the tether strap could come off
and loosen the child-restraint system. If the
child-restraint system moves it could result
in death or injury to the child.
Always remove the head restraint and set
the tether strap (except when installing a
booster seat):
Routing the tether strap on top of the head
restraint is dangerous. In a collision the
tether strap could slide off the head
restraint and loosen the child-restraint
system. The child-restraint system could
move which may result in death or injury to
the child.
