s
seat facing the side window

Wrap his/her arms around the
front seat seatback
–
Put his/her head, arms or
other parts of the body out of

In the event of an accident, the
force of SRS side airbag and/or
SRS curtain airbag deployment
could injure the child seriously
because his/her head, arms or
other parts of the body are too
close to the SRS side airbag and/
or SRS curtain airbag.
.
Since your vehicle is also
equipped with a front passen-
ger
’
s SRS frontal airbag, children
should be placed in the rear seat
anyway and should be properly
restrained at all times.
CAUTION
.
When the SRS airbag deploys,
some smoke will be released.
This smoke could cause breath-
ing problems for people with a
history of asthma or other
breathing trouble. If you or your
passengers have breathing pro-
blems after SRS airbag deploys,
get fresh air promptly.
.
A deploying SRS airbag releases
hot gas. Occupants could get
burned if they come into direct
contact with the hot gas.
NOTE
.
When you sell your vehicle, we urge
you to explain to the buyer that it is
equipped with SRS airbags by alerting
the buyer to the applicable section in
this Owner
’
s Manual.
.
If the SRS airbag deploys, fuel
supply will be cut off to reduce the risk
of fire caused by leaking fuel. For
details about restarting of the hybrid
system, refer to
