WARNING:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger airbag inflates. This is because the
back of the rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag. A child in a
forward-facing child restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the right front passenger airbag
inflates and the passenger seat is in a forward
position.
Even if the airbag switch has turned off the right
front passenger frontal airbag, no system is
fail-safe. No one can guarantee that an airbag will
not deploy under some unusual circumstance,
even though it is turned off.
Secure rear-facing child restraints in a rear seat,
even if the airbag is off. If you secure a
forward-facing child restraint in the right front seat,
always move the front passenger seat as far back
as it will go. It is better to secure the child restraint
in a rear seat.
{
WARNING:
If the airbag readiness light ever comes on when
you have turned off the airbag, it means that
something may be wrong with the airbag system.
The right front passenger's airbag could inflate
even though the switch is off. If this ever happens,
do not let anyone whom the national government
has identified as a member of a passenger airbag
risk group sit in the right front passenger's position
(for example, do not secure a rear-facing child
restraint in the right front passenger's seat) until
you have your vehicle serviced. See
Airbag Off
Switch on page 2 ‑ 74 and Airbag Readiness Light
on page 4 ‑ 27 for more on this, including
important safety information.
If your child restraint has the LATCH system, see Lower
Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) on
page 2
‑ 50 for how and where to install the child
restraint using LATCH. If a child restraint is secured
using a safety belt and it uses a top tether, see
Lower
Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) on
page 2
‑ 50 for top tether anchor locations.
