Subaru Crosstrek Owners Manual: Installing child restraint systems with ALR/ELR seatbelt
WARNING
- Child restraint systems and seatbelts can become hot in a vehicle that has been closed up in sunny weather; they could burn a small child. Check the child restraint system before you place a child in it.
- Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint system in your vehicle.
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.
- When installing a child restraint system in the rear center seating position, set both seatbacks to the original position. Otherwise, the child restraint system cannot be securely restrained, which may result in death or serious injuries in the event of sudden stop, sudden steering maneuver or an accident.
