Always attach the tether strap to the

correct tether anchor position:

Attaching the tether strap to the

incorrect tether anchor position is

dangerous. In a collision, the tether

strap could come o

 and loosen the

child-restraint system. If the

child-restraint system moves it could

result in death or injury to the child.

Always install the head restraint and

adjust it to the appropriate position

after removing the child-restraint

system:

Driving with the head restraint

removed is dangerous as impact to the

occupant's head cannot be prevented

during emergency braking or in a

collision, which could result in a

serious accident, injury or death.

Refer to Head Restraints on page 2-17.
 

Installation on rear center seat

The ISOFIX/LATCH

*1

 lower anchors at

the center of the rear seat are much

further apart than the sets of ISOFIX/

LATCH

*1

 lower anchors for

child-restraint system installation at

other seating positions. Child-restraint

systems with rigid ISOFIX/LATCH

*1

attachments cannot be installed on the

center seating position. Some ISOFIX/

LATCH

*1

 equipped child-restraint

systems can be placed in the center

position and will reach the nearest

ISOFIX/LATCH

*1

 lower anchors which

are 434 mm (17.1 in) apart. ISOFIX/

LATCH

*1

 compatible child-restraint

systems (with attachments on belt

webbing) can be used at this seating

position only if the child-restraint

system manufacturer's instructions

state that the child-restraint system can

be installed to ISOFIX/LATCH

*1

 lower

anchors that are 434 mm (17.1 in)

apart. Do not attach two child-restraint

systems to the same ISOFIX/LATCH

*1

lower anchor. If your child-restraint

system has a tether, it must also be

used for your child's optimum safety.

 

The procedure is the same as the

installation for the rear outboard seats.
