Always read and follow the instructions that
come with the system.

Child seat security

All of the rear belt retractors and the front
passenger's safety belt can be locked for
mounting and securing child-restraint sys-
tems.

Information regarding this is located near
the buckle latch of each safety belt.

To lock the safety belt

Pull the entire length of the belt from the
belt retractor. Allow the reel to retract the
belt somewhat and engage the buckle,
then tighten the belt against the child-
restraint system. The retraction mechanism
is now locked.

To unlock the safety belt

Release the buckle, remove the child-
restraint system and allow the belt retractor
to reel the belt completely in.

Child-restraint system with tether
strap

If you use a child-restraint system with a
tether strap, three additional tether anchor-
age points have been provided, refer to the

arrows in the illustration. Depending on the
location selected for sitting in the rear pas-
senger area, attach the tether strap to the
corresponding anchorage point to secure
the child-restraint system, as shown in the
illustration below.

Each sitting position is fitted with a head
restraint.

Outer sitting positions:
Lift the head restraint and pass the tether
strap between the head restraint and the
seat back. It is recommended to readjust
the head restraint into the lowest possible
position.

Center sitting position:
The head restraint must be adjusted into
the lowest possible position. Pass the
tether strap over the head restraint.

Adjust the tether strap according to
the child-restraint manufacturer's

instructions.

LATCH* child-restraint fixing

LATCH: Lower Anchor and Tethers for
CHildren.

The rear outer sitting positions are pro-
vided with anchors for a LATCH child-
restraint fixing.

To fit the LATCH child-restraint fixing,
follow the operating and safety

instructions of the manufacturer.

If the vehicle is equipped with electric
power seats in the rear, return these to their
standard adjustment setting before using a
LATCH child-restraint fixing, refer to
