Seat and restraint systems

WARNING

●

Infants and small children should never ride unre-

strained, or lean against the instrument panel. They

should never ride held in your arms or on your lap.

They can be seriously injured or killed in an acci-

dent, especially when the air bags inflate. Infants

and children should be properly seated in the rear

seat in an appropriate child restraint system. Refer

to “Child restraints” on page 2-24.

WARNING

●

NEVER put REAR-FACING CHILD

RESTRAINTS or INFANT RESTRAINTS in the

front passenger seat. This places the infant too close

to the passenger air bag. During deployment of that

air bag, the infant can be seriously injured or killed.

Rear-facing child restraints or infant restraints must

only be used in the rear seat.
