2. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a
rear-facing child restraint) must ride in the
front passenger seat, move the seat as far
back as possible and use the proper child
restraint. (Refer to “Child Restraints”)
3. Children that are not big enough to wear the
vehicle seat belt properly (Refer to " Child
Restraints " ) should be secured in a vehicle
with a rear seat in child restraints or belt-
positioning booster seats. Older children who
do not use child restraints or belt-positioning
booster seats should ride properly buckled up
in a vehicle with a rear seat.
4. Never allow children to slide the shoulder
belt behind them or under their arm.
5. You should read the instructions provided
with your child restraint to make sure that
you are using it properly.
6. All occupants should always wear their lap
and shoulder belts properly.
7. The driver and front passenger seats should
be moved back as far as practical to allow
the Advanced Front Air Bags room to inflate.
8. Do not lean against the door or window. If
your vehicle has side air bags, and deploy-
ment occurs, the side air bags will inflate
forcefully into the space between you and
the door and you could be injured.
9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to
be modified to accommodate a disabled
person, contact the Customer Center. Phone
numbers are provided under
" If You Need
Consumer Assistance. "
WARNING!
•
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in
front of an air bag. A deploying Passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death
or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a rear-facing
child restraint.
•
Only use rear-facing child restraint in a
vehicle with a rear seat.
Seat Belt Systems
Buckle up even though you are an excellent
driver, even on short trips. Someone on the
road may be a poor driver and could cause a
collision that includes you. This can happen far
away from home or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives,
and they can reduce the seriousness of injuries
in a collision. Some of the worst injuries happen
when people are thrown from the vehicle. Seat
belts reduce the possibility of ejection and the
risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the
vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should be
belted at all times.
