Seating Larger Children
Installing Seat Belt Retained Child Seats
If a child is too large to fit into a child safety
seat, but too small to safely fit into the
standard seat belts, use a booster seat
appropriate for the child’s age and size.
Carefully follow the manufacturer’s
instructions to secure the booster seat using
the seat belts. Do not use the ISOFIX system
to secure booster seats, even in situations
where the booster seat is equipped with the
ISOFIX system.
First, make sure that the child falls into the
correct weight range for the seat.
Avoid dressing the child in bulky clothing and
do not place any objects between the child
and the restraint system.
Adjust harnesses for every child, every trip.
Always follow the detailed instructions
provided by the child safety seat
manufacturer. General guidelines are provided
below.
Installing Child Safety Seats
1.
Place the child safety seat in Model S,
route the seat belt, and secure the buckle
in accordance with the child safety seat
manufacturer’s instructions.
There are two general methods used to install
child safety seats:
•
•
Seat belt retained - these seats are
secured using the vehicle’s seat belts (see
Installing Seat Belt Retained Child Seats
on page 11).
ISOFIX retained - these seats can attach
to anchor bars built into the vehicle’s rear
seats (see Installing ISOFIX Child Seats on
page 12).
Check the child safety seat manufacturer’s
instructions and the table on Choosing a Child
Safety Seat on page 9 to determine which
installation method to use. Some child safety
seats can be installed using either method.
Always follow the child safety seat
manufacturer’s instructions.
2.
3.
Allow the seat belt to retract, and remove
all slack in the seat belt while firmly
pushing the child safety seat into the
Model S seat.
If the seat belt retained child safety seat
has an upper tether, attach it to the back
of the seat (see Attaching Upper Tether
Straps on page 13).
