When the child restraint system is no longer in
use, remove it and restore the ELR function of the
retractor. That function is restored by allowing the
seatbelt to retract fully.
Installing forward facing child restraint
1. Place the child restraint system in the rear seating

2. Run the lap and shoulder belt through or around
the child restraint system following the instructions
provided by its manufacturer.
3. Insert the tongue plate into the buckle untill you
hear a click.

5. Pull out the seatbelt fully from the retractor to
change the retractor over from the Emergency Lock-

the retractor. As the belt is rewinding, clicks will be
heard which indicate the retractor functions as ALR.
