With the exception of the driver, the seat belt
in all other seating positions can be converted
from normal Emergency Locking 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, when-
ever possible, although the front passenger
seat belt can also be converted to ALR mode.
WARNING
If there is any foreign material in or
around the lower anchors, remove it
before installing the child restraint sys-
tem. Also, make sure the seat belt is away
from, not looped through or otherwise
interfering with, the child restraint sys-
tem. If foreign matter is not removed
and/or the seat belt interferes with the
child restraint system, the child restraint
system will not be secured properly, could
detach and move forward in the event of
sudden braking or an accident, and could
result in injury to the child or other vehi-
cle occupants.
When the vehicle is moving, do not adjust
the seat where the child restraint system is
installed.
WARNING
Child restraint system tether anchors are
designed only to withstand loads from cor-
rectly fitted child restraint systems. Under
no circumstances are they to be used for
adult seat belts, harnesses, for attaching
other items, or equipment to the vehicle.
Installing a child restraint sys-
tem using the seat belt (with
emergency/automatic locking
mechanism)
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 forward during
sudden braking or an accident, resulting
in serious injury or death to the child or
other occupants.
CAUTION
Do not sit in the center seating position of
the rear seat when installing a child restraint
system on the left side of the rear seat.
Installation
NOTE
On vehicles equipped with the cargo area
cover, install the cargo area cover in the rear
position or remove it.
Refer to “Cargo area cover” on page 5-223.
