Your vehicle may have a label on your sun visor that
says, “Never put a rear-facing child seat in the
front.” This is because the risk to the rear-facing child is
so great if the airbag deploys.
Never put a child in a rear-facing child restraint in the
passenger’s seat the unless passenger airbag status
indicator shows off. Never put a rear facing child
restraint in the passenger’s seat unless the airbags are
off. Here is why:
{
CAUTION:
Even though the passenger sensing system is
designed to turn off the passenger’s frontal
airbag and side impact airbag (if equipped) if
the system detects a rear-facing child restraint,
no system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an airbag will not deploy under
some unusual circumstance, even though it is
turned off. We recommend that rear-facing
child restraints be transported in vehicles with
a rear seat that will accommodate a rear-facing
child restraint, whenever possible.
If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it means that the passenger’s
frontal airbag and side impact airbag (if equipped)
are enabled (may inflate).
{
CAUTION:
If the on indicator comes on when you have a
rear-facing child restraint installed in the
passenger’s seat, it means that the passenger
sensing system has not turned off the
passenger’s frontal airbag and side impact
airbag (if equipped). A child in a rear-facing
child restraint can be seriously injured or killed
if the passenger’s airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the rear-facing child
restraint would be very close to the inflating
airbag. Do not use a rear-facing child restraint in
the passenger’s seat if the airbag is turned on.
If the word OFF or the off symbol is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it means that the passenger
sensing system has turned off the passenger’s airbags.
See Passenger Sensing System on page 1-48 for
more on this, including important safety information.
