If you have installed a child restraint system for the rear center seating position , when you remove the child restraint system , the seatbelt may not be restored to the ELR mode even if the seatbelt is retracted . In this case , lower the head restraint to the retracted position to allow the seatbelt to retract moreover . The seatbelt will return to the ELR mode .
