Top tether anchorages
Some types of child restraint systems
might not be able to be secured firmly
due to projection of the seat cushion.
In this seating position, you should use
only a child restraint system that has a
bottom base that fits snugly against the
contours of the seat cushion and can be
securely retained using the seatbelt.
When a child restraint system is installed
using the third-row seat lower anchorages,
do not sit in the third-row center seat.
C: Applicable only for eight seaters
In this position, the following equipment is
provided for installing a child restraint
system.

Some types of child restraint systems
might not be able to be secured firmly
due to projection of the seat cushion.
In this seating position, you should use
only a child restraint system that has a
bottom base that fits snugly against the
contours of the seat cushion and can be
securely retained using the seatbelt.
The second-row center seat includes low-
er anchorages, and the lower anchorages
on the center side of the second-row left
seat can be used to install a child restraint
system.
When a child restraint system is installed in
the second-row center seat using the
lower anchorages, do not sit in the
second-row left seat.
If a child restraint system is not correctly
fixed in place (for example, if a child
restraint system can be moved more than
1 in (2.5 cm) from side to side), the child
restraint system should be moved to a
window-side seat position of the second-
row seat or to a left side seat of the third-
row seat.

WARNING
.
Even with advanced airbags, chil-
dren can be seriously injured by
the airbag. Seat children in the
rear seat properly restrained at
all times. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable speed and
force and can injure or even kill
children, especially if they are not
restrained or improperly re-
strained. Because children are
lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from
deployment is greater.
For that reason, be sure to secure
ALL types of child restraint sys-
tems (including forward facing
child restraint systems) in the
REAR seats at all times. You
should choose a restraint system
which is appropriate for the
child’s age, height and weight.
According to accident statistics,

children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating
positions than in the front seating
positions.
.
Do not use lower anchorages
(bars) for a seat in the center
seating position unless a child
restraint system manufacturer’s
instructions permit and specify
using anchors spaced as far
apart as those in this vehicle.
.
Do not connect two or more lower
hooks onto the same anchorage
(bar).
WARNING

S I N C E Y O U R V E H I C L E I S
EQUIPPED WITH A PASSEN-
GER’S SRS AIRBAG, NEVER IN-
STALL A CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM IN THE FRONT PAS-
SENGER’S SEAT. DOING SO
RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH TO THE CHILD BY PLA-
CING THE CHILD’S HEAD TOO
CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.
.
Do not allow children to lean their
heads or any other parts of their
bodies against the door or the
area of the seat, front and rear
pillars or roof side rails. The SRS
side airbags and SRS curtain
airbags deploy even if children
are seated in the child restraint
system. It will be dangerous if the
SRS side airbags and SRS cur-
tain airbags inflate. The impact
could cause death or serious
injury to the child.
.
To secure the child restraint sys-
tem, be sure to comply with all
installation instructions provided
by the child restraint system
manufacturer.
Not doing so could result in death
or serious injury to children in a
sudden stop or accident.
&
Choosing a child restraint
system
Choose a child restraint system that is
appropriate for the child’s age and size
(weight and height) in order to provide the
child with proper protection. The child
restraint system should meet all applicable
requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards for the United States or
of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
for Canada. It can be identified by looking
for the label on the child restraint system or
the manufacturer’s statement of compli-
ance in the document attached to the
system.
Also it is important for you to make sure
Child restraint systems
70
(73,1)
that the child restraint system is compa-
tible with the vehicle in which it will be
used.
NOTE
Some sizes of child restraint systems
may not fit the vehicle seat. Before
purchasing a child restraint system,
check whether it fits on the vehicle seat.
&
Installing child restraint sys-
tems with ALR/ELR seatbelt
CAUTION
.
When you install a child restraint
system, follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions supplied with
it. After installing the child re-
straint system, check to ensure
that it is held securely in position.
If it is not held tight and secure,
the danger of your child suffering
personal injury in the event of an
accident may be increased.
.
When installing a child restraint
system in the rear center seating
position, set both seatbacks to
the original position. Otherwise,
the child restraint system cannot
be securely restrained, which
may result in death or serious
injuries in the event of sudden
stop, sudden steering maneuver
or an accident.

under the child’s arm or behind
the child’s back. If an accident
occurs, this can increase the risk
or severity of injury to the child.
.
The seatbelt should fit snugly in
order to provide full restraint.
Loose fitting belts are not as
Child restraint systems
76
(79,1)
effective in preventing or redu-
cing injury.
.
Place the lap belt as low as
possible on the child’s hips. A
high-positioned lap belt will in-
crease the risk of sliding under
the lap belt and of the lap belt
sliding up over the abdomen, and
both can result in serious internal
injury or death.
.
Make sure the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of
child’s shoulder. Placing the
shoulder belt over the neck may
result in neck injury during sud-
den braking or in a collision.

!
Lower and top tether anchorages
WARNING
.
Attach the child restraint system
to the anchors properly. When
using the LATCH anchors, be
sure that there are no foreign
objects around the anchors.
Make sure the child restraint
system is securely attached.
Otherwise, it may cause death or
serious injury to children or other
passengers in sudden braking,
swerving, or accidents.
.
When installing a child restraint
system using LATCH anchors
with the rear seatbelt fastened,
ensure that the rear seatbelt does
not become caught in the child
restraint system or the lower
LATCH anchorages.
NOTE
The seatbelt warning system of the rear
seats detects if any of the seats are
occupied by a passenger. Installing a
child restraint system in the rear seat-
ing area, using the LATCH anchors,
may result in the activation of the
passenger seatbelt warning light and
chime. Fastening the rear seatbelt prior
to installing the child restraint system
will avoid activating the passenger
seatbelt warning light and chime.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
name is used because the airbag system
supplements the vehicle’s seatbelts.
This vehicle is equipped with a supple-

&
General precautions regard-
ing SRS airbag system
WARNING
.
To obtain maximum protection in
the event of an accident, the
driver and all passengers must
always wear seatbelts when in
the vehicle. The SRS airbag is
designed only to be a supplement
to the primary protection pro-
vided by the seatbelt. It does not
eliminate the need to fasten seat-
belts. In combination with the
seatbelts, it offers the best pro-
tection in case of a serious acci-
dent.
Not wearing a seatbelt increases
the chance of severe injury or
death in a crash even when the
vehicle has the SRS airbag sys-
tem.
For instructions and precautions
concerning the seatbelt system,
refer to “Seatbelts”
.
The SRS side airbags and SRS
curtain airbags are designed only
to be a supplement to the primary
protection provided by the seat-
belt. They do not eliminate the
need to fasten seatbelts. It is also
important to wear a seatbelt to
help avoid injuries that can result
when an occupant is not seated
in a proper upright position.
WARNING
The SRS airbags deploy with con-
siderable speed and force. Occu-
pants who are not seated in the
proper upright position when the
SRS airbag deploys could suffer
serious injury. Because the SRS
airbag needs enough space for
deployment, the driver should al-
ways sit upright and back in the seat
as far from the steering wheel as
practical while still maintaining full
vehicle control, and the front pas-
SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)
