A tether anchorage point is provided behind 
each rear seating position. If you have a child 
restraint system that comes with a tether but 
can be installed with a seat belt, the tether 
may be used for additional security.

1.

Locate the appropriate tether anchorage 
point.

Adding Security with a Tether

WARNING: 

Child restraint anchorages are designed 

to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly 
fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are 
they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for 
attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.

Always use a tether for front-facing child restraint 
system when using the seat belt or lower anchorages.

Safety of Larger Children

The following pages give instructions on how to check proper seat belt fit, what kind 
of booster seat to use if one is needed, and important precautions for a child who 
must sit in front.

When a child is too big for a child restraint system, secure the child in a rear seat 
using the lap/shoulder seat belt. Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then 
answer the following questions.

Checklist

Do the child's knees bend comfortably over 
the edge of the seat?

Does the shoulder belt cross between the 
child's neck and arm?

Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as 
possible, touching the child's thighs?

Will the child be able to stay seated like this 
for the whole trip?

If you answer yes to all these questions, the child is ready to wear the lap/shoulder 
seat belt correctly. If you answer no to any question, the child needs to ride on a 
booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat.

WARNING

Allowing a child aged 12 or under to sit in 
front can result in injury or death if the 
passenger's front airbag inflates.

If a larger child must ride in front, move the 
vehicle seat as far to the rear as possible, 
have the child sit up properly and wear the 
seat belt properly, using a booster seat if 
needed.

Safety of Larger Children

Safe Driving

If a lap/shoulder seat belt cannot be used 
properly, position the child in a booster seat in 
the rear seat. For the child's safety, check that 
the child meets the booster seat 
manufacturer's recommendations.

A backrest is available for a specific booster 
seat. Install the backrest to the booster seat 
and adjust it to the vehicle seat according to 
the booster seat manufacturer's instructions. 
Make sure the seat belt is properly routed 
through the guide at the shoulder of the 
backrest and the belt does not touch and 
cross the child’s neck.

Booster Seats

Booster Seats

When installing a booster seat, make sure to read the 
instructions that came with it, and install the seat 
accordingly.
There are high- and low-type booster seats. Choose a 
booster seat that allows the child to wear the seat 
belt correctly.

We recommend a booster seat with a backrest as it is 
easier to adjust the shoulder belt.

Safety of Larger Children

Safe Driving

Your vehicle has a rear seat where children can be properly restrained. If you ever 
have to carry a group of children, and a child must ride in front:

Make sure you read and fully understand the instructions and safety information 
in this manual.

Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible.

Have the child sit upright and well back in the seat.

Check that the seat belt is properly positioned so that the child is secure in the 
seat.

Monitoring child passengers

We strongly recommend that you keep an eye on child passengers. Even older, more 
mature children sometimes need to be reminded to fasten their seat belts and sit up 
properly.
