WARNING

LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child restraint systems

do not offer sufficient protective effect for

children whose weight is greater than 48 lbs

(22 kg) who are secured using the safety belt

integrated in the child restraint system. In the

event of an accident, a child might not be

restrained correctly. This poses an increased

risk of injury or even fatal injury.
If the child weighs more than 48 lbs (22 kg),

only use LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child restraint

systems with which the child is also secured

with the vehicle seat belt. Also secure the

child restraint system with the Top Tether

belt, if available.

When installing a child restraint system, be

sure to observe the manufacturer's installa-

tion instructions and the instructions for cor-

rect use of the child restraint system.

!

When installing the LATCH-type (ISOFIX)

child restraint system, make sure that the

seat belt for the center seat does not get

trapped. Otherwise, the seat belt could be

damaged.
