8. To release the child from the seat
belts, compress the shoulder belt clip,
then press the buckle release button.

9. To store the built-in child restraint,
fasten the shoulder belt clip and return
the seat belt buckle using the fastener
tapes. Fold up the seat belt adjustment

A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must itself be restrained
on the seat with either the lap belt or
the lap portion of the lap/shoulder
belt.
The child restraint system should conform
to the size of the child and properly fit the
vehicle seat. For greater safety, the child
restraint system should be installed in the
rear seat. According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly re-
strained in the rear seat than in the front
seat.
When installing a child restraint system,
follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the system. General di-
rections are also provided under the fol-
lowing illustrations.
CAUTION
!
After installing the child restraint
system, make sure it is secured in
place. If it is not restrained securely,
it may cause injury to the child in the
event of a sudden stop or accident.
When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it somewhere other than in passenger
compartment. This will prevent it injuring
passengers in the event of a sudden stop
or accident.
