U² Suitable for universal child restraints approved for this weight group, in which the child is secured by the adult seat belt (for example, child restraints without a harness).

Note: If you use a child seat on the front seat, the following longitudinal seat positioning guidelines must be followed: The child seat must not touch the dashboard. The passenger seat must be moved as far back as possible and the seat belt pulled toward the front of the vehicle (from the B-pillar anchor to the child seat). If it is difficult to tighten the seat belt retractor without slack, set the seatback to fully upright and raise the seat height.
