8. Before having a child sit in the child
restraint system, try to move it back and
forth and right and left to check if it is firmly
secured. Sometimes a child restraint
system can be more firmly secured by
pushing it down into the seat cushion and
then tightening the seatbelt.
9. Pull at the shoulder portion of the belt
to confirm that it cannot be pulled out (ALR
properly functioning).
4-door models
5-door models
10. Latch the top tether hook onto the
tether anchorage that is located behind
the rear seat and tighten the top tether
firmly. For additional instructions, refer to
“Top tether anchorages” F1-36.
11. To remove the child restraint system,
press the release button on the seatbelt
buckle and allow the belt to retract
completely. The belt will return to the
ELR mode.
If you have installed a child restraint
system for the rear center seating posi-
tion on a 5-door model, when you
remove the child restraint system, the
seatbelt may not be restored to the ELR
mode even if the seatbelt is retracted. In
this case, lower the head restraint to the
retracted position to allow the seatbelt to
retract moreover. The seatbelt will return
to the ELR mode.
Remember that the head restraint is not
intended to be used at the lowest position
