When using a child restraint system
WARNING
■
When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●
Never use a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat. The force
of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to
children in the event of an accident.
●
A forward-facing child restraint system may be installed on the front passenger seat
only when it is unavoidable. A child restraint system that requires a top strap should
not be used in the front passenger seat since there is no top strap anchor for the front
passenger seat.
●
Only put a forward-facing child restraint sys-
tem on the front seat when unavoidable.
When installing a forward-facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat, move
the seat as far back as possible. Failing to do
so may result in death or serious injury if the
airbags deploy (inflate).
