System malfunction

: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller

adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/
her as a child depending on his/her physique and posture.

: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt.

: When a large child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in

the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as an
adult depending on his/her physique and posture.

: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passen-

ger seat. A forward-facing child restraint system should only be
installed on the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable.
