5.5.5.1. Installation on front passenger and rear outboard seats
Front-facing child seats
Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the proper use of your child restraint. Follow these steps to install a front-facing child restraint on the front passenger and rear outboard seats using ISOFIX:
Position the child restraint on the seat (1).
Secure the child restraint anchor attachments to the ISOFIX lower anchors (2).
The back of the child restraint should be secured against the vehicle seat back. If necessary, adjust or remove the head restraint to obtain the correct child restraint fit. (See
.) If the head restraint is removed, store it in a secure place. Be sure to install the head restraint when the child restraint is removed. If the seating position does not have an adjustable head restraint and it is interfering with the proper child restraint fit, try another seating position or a different child restraint.
Shorten the rigid attachment to have the child restraint firmly tightened; press downward (3) and rearward (4) firmly in the centre of the child restraint with your knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion and seatback.
If the child restraint is equipped with a top tether strap, route the top tether strap and secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point. (See
.)If the child restraint is equipped with other anti-rotation devices such as support legs, use them instead of the top tether strap following the child restraint manufacturer's instructions.
Test the child restraint before you place the child in it (5). Push the child restraint from side to side and tug it forward to make sure that it is held securely in place.
Check to make sure that the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the child restraint is loose, repeat steps 3 through 7.
