Child seat anchors – LATCH-type
This vehicle is equipped with two LATCH
(Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CH
ildren) type anchors (at each of the
outer rear seats) for the installation of a
LATCH child seat with the matching an-
chor fittings.
i Vehicles with a rear center seat*:
Make sure the seat belt for the center seat can
operate freely with a child seat installed.
i Non-LATCH type child seats may also be
used and can be installed using the vehicle’s
seat belt system. Install child seat according to
the manufacturer’s instructions.
Warning! G
Never adjust the rear seat position after in-
stalling the child restraint. Adjusting the
rear seat position after installing the child
restraint could damage the child restraint
and/or introduce undesirable slack into the
webbing and loosen or misposition the
child restraint, lessening the effectiveness
of the child restraint and thus increasing
the chance or severity of injury in an acci-
dent.
Warning! G
Children too big for child restraint systems
must ride in back seats using regular seat
belts. Position shoulder belt across chest
and shoulder, not face or neck.
A booster seat may be necessary to achieve
proper seat belt positioning for children
over 41 lb until they reach a height where
a lap/shoulder belt fits properly without a
booster.
Install child seat according to manufactur-
er’s instructions.
To enable the child seat to perform its pro-
tective function,
앫 the rear seat backrest must be fully up-
right (컄 page 131)
앫 the seat cushion must be tilted fully
downwards (컄 page 131).
The child seat must be firmly attached to
the right and left side anchors 2
(컄 page 100).
An incorrectly mounted child seat may
come loose during an accident which could
result in serious injury or death to your
child.
Damaged or impact damaged child seats
or child seat mounting fittings must be re-
placed.
Do not leave children unattended in the
vehicle, even if the children are secured in
a child restraint system.
Warning! G
Never adjust the rear seat position after in-
stalling the child restraint. Adjusting the
rear seat position after installing the child
restraint could damage the child restraint
and/or introduce undesirable slack into the
webbing and loosen or misposition the
child restraint, lessening the effectiveness
of the child restraint and thus increasing
the chance or severity of injury in an acci-
dent.
