Installing a child restraint system using the seat

N00407300383
With the exception of the driver, the seat belt in all other seat-
ing positions can be converted from normal Emergency Lock-
ing Retractor (ELR) mode, to Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) mode. This means that when you pull the seat belt fully
out of the retractor, the retractor will switch to its ALR child
restraint installation function. Always use the ALR child
restraint installation function when you install a child restraint
system using the seat belt.
Children 12 years old and under should always be restrained in
the rear seat, whenever possible, although the front passenger
seat belt can also be converted to ALR mode.
WARNING
!
● Child restraint system tether anchors are designed
only to withstand loads from correctly fitted child
restraint systems. Under no circumstances are they
to be used for adult seat belts, or harnesses, or for
attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.
WARNING
!
● When you install a child restraint system using the
seat belt, always make sure the retractor has been
switched to the ALR child restraint installation
function. The ALR function will keep the child
restraint system tightly secured to the seat.
Failure to convert the retractor to the ALR function
may allow the child restraint system to move for-
ward during sudden braking or an accident, result-
ing in serious injury or death to the child or other
occupants.
