■ When installing a child restraint system (without a lock-off) using a
seatbelt
You need a locking clip to install the child restraint system using a seatbelt.
Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the system. If your
child restraint system does not provide a locking clip, we recommend that
you contact any authorized SUBARU dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
■ When installing a child restraint system with ISOFIX rigid anchors and
a top strap
Depending on the child restraint system's size and shape, if the child
restraint system is installed to the fixing bars first, it may not be possible to
attach the top strap to the anchor bracket.
In that case, first temporarily attach the top strap to the anchor bracket,
install the child restraint system using the ISOFIX rigid anchors and then
tighten the top strap.
WARNING
■ When installing a child restraint system
Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual
and fix the child restraint system securely in place.
If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other
passengers may be injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking,
sudden swerving or an accident.
● 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 (left-hand drive vehicles)
or the left-hand rear seat (right-hand
drive vehicles).
● Adjust the front passenger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child
restraint system.
