Securing
This section explains securing the child
restraint system in the rear seat.
(For model with front passenger airbag
deactivation system)
Whenever possible, SUZUKI recom-
mends that child restraint systems be
installed on the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in rear seats than in the
front passenger seat.
• If you must install the child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger’s seat, follow
instructions below.
– Deactivate the front passenger’s front
airbag by the front passenger airbag
deactivation system.
– Slide the seat to the most rear position
by the seat position adjustment lever.
– If there is a gap or space between the
child restraint and the seatback, adjust
the seatback angle in order to install
the child restraint system properly.
– If your vehicle is equipped with the
seat height adjustment lever, raise the
seat to the uppermost position by the
seat height adjustment lever.
69T020090
1) When the child restraint system con-
tacts the head restraint, adjust the
height of the head restraint or remove it
for fitting the child restraint system.
2) Adjust the angle of the seatback so that
there is no gap between the child
restraint system and the seatback.
3) Make sure that the child restraint sys-
tem is securely fastened to the main
seat.
4) Make sure to pass the seat belt of the
passenger’s seat through the specified
parts, according to the instruction man-
ual that came with the child restraint
system.
WARNING
If child restraint systems are not
installed properly, children or other
occupants could be seriously injured
in the event of an accident. Secure
the child restraint system firmly
according to both this manual and
the instruction provided by child
restraint system's manufacturer.
WARNING
• If the child restraint system con-
tacts the head restraint, the child
restraint system cannot be secured
firmly. This may cause severe
injury to a child in a collision.
When installing the child restraint
system, adjust the head restraint
height to the highest position as
much as possible or remove the
head restraint so that the child
restraint system would not contact
the head restraint.
• If you install a junior seat without a
seatback to a seat without a head-
rest, a child may be severely
injured in a collision.
When installing a junior seat with-
out a seatback, install a head
restraint.
