Before confirming the compatibil-
ity of each seating position with
child restraint systems
1 Checking the child restraint system
standards.
Use a child restraint system that
conforms to UN(ECE) R44
*1
or
UN(ECE) R129
*1, 2
.
The following approval mark is dis-
played on child restraint systems
which are conformed.
Check for an approval mark
●
Do not allow the child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or the area of the seat,
front pillars or roof side rails from
which the SRS side airbags or SRS
curtain shield airbags deploy even if
the child is seated in the child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the SRS side
and curtain shield airbags inflate, and
the impact could cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child.
●
When a junior seat (booster seat) is
installed, always ensure that the shoul-
der belt is positioned 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.
●
Use child restraint system suitable to
the age and size of the child and install
it to the rear seat.
●
If the driver’s seat interferes with the
child restraint system and prevents it
from being attached correctly, attach
the child restraint system to the
right-hand rear seat.
●
Adjust the front passenger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child
restraint system.
