Danger
A young child's hip bones are still
so small that the vehicle's regular
seat belt may not remain low on
the hip bones, as it should.
Instead, it may settle up around
the child's abdomen. In a crash,
the belt would apply force on a
body area that is unprotected by
any bony structure. This alone
could cause serious or fatal
injuries. To reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injuries during a
crash, young children should
always be secured in appropriate
child restraints.
Child Restraint Systems
We recommend a child restraint
system that is tailored specifically to
the vehicle.
When a child restraint system is
being used, pay attention to the
following usage and installation
instructions and also those supplied
with the child restraint system.
Always comply with local or national
regulations.
Refer to the airbag warning label on
the passenger's sunvisor.

WARNING
–
EXTREME
HAZARD!
Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected
by an airbag in front of it.
The child could be seriously
injured if the airbag inflates, as
the child's head would be very
close to the inflating airbag.

Warning
This manual provides you with
