WARNING

■

When installing a child restraint sys-

tem

Observe the following precautions. 

Failure to do so may result in death or 

serious injury.

●

When using the LATCH anchors, be 

sure that there are no foreign objects 

around the anchors and that the seat 

belt is not caught behind the child 

restraint system.

●

Follow all installation instructions pro-

vided by the child restraint system 

manufacturer.

●

Child restraint systems cannot be 

installed in the rear center seat. Do not 

install the child restraint system in the 

rear center seat using the LATCH 

anchors.

●

When securing some types of child 

restraint systems in rear seats, it may 

not be possible to properly use the 

seat belts in positions next to the child 

restraint without interfering with it or 

affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be 

sure your seat belt fits snugly across 

your shoulder and low on your hips. If it 

does not, or if it interferes with the 

child restraint, move to a different posi-

tion. Failure to do so may result in 

death or serious injury.

●

If the seat is adjusted, reconfirm the 

security of the child restraint system.
