Q ISOFIX lower anchorages (ISO-
FIX child restraint system)
Lower anchorages are provided for
the outboard rear seats. (Marks dis-
playing the location of the anchorages
are attached to the seats.)
Q Installation with ISOFIX lower
anchorage (ISOFIX child restraint
system)
Install the child restraint system in
accordance to the operation manual
enclosed with the child restraint sys-
tem.
If the child restraint system on hand is
not within the “universal” category (or
the necessary information is not in the
table), refer to the “Vehicle List” pro-
vided by the child restraint system
maker for various possible installation
positions, or check the compatibility
after asking the retailer of the child
seat. (P.57)
1 Vehicles with reclining type rear
seat: Adjust the seat
If there is a gap between the child seat and
the seatback, adjust the seatback angle
until good contact is achieved. (P.55)
2 Remove the cover.
Q When installing a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
O 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 inju-
ries that could result in death. If this
occurs and the buckle cannot be
unfastened, scissors should be used to
cut the belt.
O Ensure that the belt and plate are
securely locked and the seat belt is not
twisted.
O Shake the child restraint system left
and right, and forward and backward
to ensure that it has been securely
installed.
O After securing a child restraint system,
never adjust the seat.
O When a junior seat is installed, always
ensure that the shoulder belt is posi-
tioned across the center of the child’s
shoulder. The belt should be kept away
from the child’s neck, but not so that it
could fall off the child’s shoulder.
O Follow all installation instructions pro-
vided by the child restraint system
manufacturer.
