Installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, we recommend that
the child restraint system be used in the
rear seats.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat,
because of the danger that an inflat-
ing passenger side air bag could
impact the rear-facing child restraint
and kill the child.
Since all passenger safety belts move
freely under normal conditions and only
lock under extreme or emergency condi-
tions (emergency lock mode), you must
manually change these safety belts to
the auto lock mode to secure a child
restraint.
(Continued)
• If the vehicle’s safety belt will not
properly fit the child, you must
use an appropriate child restraint
or booster seat in the rear.
• Never allow a child to stand up or
kneel while the vehicle is moving.
• Never use an infant carrier or
child seat that "hooks" over a
seatback. It will not provide ade-
quate protection in an accident.
• Never allow a child to be held
while they are in a moving vehi-
cle, as this could result in serious
injury or death to the child in the
event of an accident or sudden
stop. Holding a child in a moving
vehicle does not provide the child
with any protection during an
accident, even if the person hold-
ing the child is wearing a seat
belt.
