WARNING
Unsecured child restraint systems can be thrown around inside of the vehicle in a sudden stop, turn or accident; they can strike and injure vehicle occupants as well as result in serious injuries or death to the child.
CAUTION
When you install a child restraint system, follow the manufacturer's instructions supplied with it. After installing the child restraint 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.
Lower and tether anchorages
Some types of child restraint systems can be installed on the rear seat of your vehicle without use of the seatbelts. Such child restraint systems are secured to the designated anchorages provided on the vehicle body. The lower and tether anchorages are sometimes referred to as the LATCH system (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren).
Your vehicle is equipped with four lower anchorages (bars) and three upper anchorages (tether anchorages) for accommodating such child restraint systems.
Lower anchorages
The lower anchorages (bars) are used for installing a child restraint system only on the rear seat window-side seating positions.
For each window-side seating position, two lower anchorages are provided.
Each lower anchorage is located where the seat cushion meets the seatback.
Tether anchorages
The tether anchorages (upper anchorages) are provided at the locations shown in the above illustration. For details, refer to "Top tether anchorages" 1- 36.
To install a child restraint system using lower and tether anchorages
To install a child restraint system using lower and tether anchorages, perform the following procedure.
WARNING
Before installing a child restraint system, be sure to confirm that the seatback is securely locked into place. Otherwise, in an accident, serious injury or death could result.
1. Shake the seatback slightly to confirm that it is securely locked into place.
2. You will find marks " " at
the bottom of
the rear seat seatbacks. These marks
indicate the positions of the lower anchorages
(bars).
Remove the covers and locate the lower anchorages (bars).
3. Remove the rear seat head restraint.
For details, refer to "Rear windows side seating position" 1-9.
4. While following the instructions supplied
by the child restraint system manufacturer,
connect the lower hooks onto the
lower anchorages located at " "
marks on
the bottom of the rear seatback. When the
hooks are connected, make sure the
adjacent seatbelts are not caught.
5. [If your child restraint system is of a flexible attachment type (which uses tether belts to connect the child restraint system properly to the lower anchorages)] While pushing the child restraint into the seat cushion, pull both left and right lower tether belts up to secure the child restraint system firmly by taking up the slack in the belt.
6. Latch the top tether hook onto the tether anchorage that is located behind the rear seat and tighten the top tether firmly. For additional instructions, refer to "Top tether anchorages" 1-36.
7. Before seating a child in the child restraint system, try to move it back and forth and right and left to verify that it is held securely in position.
8. To remove the child restraint system, follow the reverse procedures of installation.
If you have any question concerning this type of child restraint system, ask your SUBARU dealer.
