When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it somewhere other than the passenger
compartment. This will prevent it from in-
juring passengers in the event of a sud-
den stop or accident.

Your vehicle has anchors for securing the
top strap of a child restraint system.

For instructions on how to use the anchor
bracket, see “—Using a top strap” in this
section.

Child restraint systems are classified into
the following 3 types depending on the
child’s age and size.

(A) Infant seat
(B) Convertible seat
(C) Booster seat

Install the child restraint system following
the instructions provided by its manufac-
turer.

(A) Infant seat

(B) Convertible seat

—Types of child restraint
