Mitsubishi Outlander: Infants and small children
When transporting infants and small children in your vehicle, follow the instruction given below.
Instruction:
(1) For small infants, an infant carrier should be used. For small children whose
height when seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in contact with the face or the
throat, a child seat should be used.
(2) The child restraint system should be
appropriate for your child’s weight and height and properly fit the vehicle. For
a higher degree of safety: THE CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE
REAR SEAT.
(3) Before purchasing a child seat or infant carrier, first try to
install it in the rear seat to ensure it fits well. Due to the location of the seat
belt buckles in the seat cushion, it may be difficult to securely install some child
restraint systems. If the child restraint system can be pulled forward easily on
the seat cushion after the belt has been tightened, choose another child restraint
system.
WARNING
(1) When installing a child restraint system, refer to the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the restraint system. Failure to do so can result
in severe or fatal injury to your child.
(2) After installation, push and pull
the child restraint system back and forth, and side to side, to see that it is positively
secured. If the child restraint system is not installed securely, it may cause injury
to the child or other occupants in case of accident or sudden stops.
(3) When
the child restraint system is not in use, keep your child or infant seat secured
with the seat belt or remove it from the vehicle in order to prevent injury to your
child.
