Before attaching the LATCH child seat, pull the
belt away from the region of the child restraint
fixing system.
Make sure that both of the lower LATCH
mounts have properly clicked into place
and that the child restraint system is resting

For Canadian Customers Only
The following statement is required by Trans-
port Canada:
This vehicle is not equipped with user-ready
tether anchorages. As such neither a child
restraint system, nor a booster cushion, requir-
ing the use of a tether strap can be properly
secured in the vehicle.
Coupe
Only use the top tether-strap mounting
points to secure child restraint systems,
otherwise the mounting points could be dam-
aged.
<
There are two additional mounting points for
child restraint systems with a tether strap, refer
to arrows.
Placement of tether strap
Make sure that the tether strap is not
routed over sharp edges and does not
twist on its way to the upper mounting point;
otherwise, the belt may not properly secure the
child restraint system in the event of an acci-
dent.
