(B) CONVERTIBLE SEAT INSTALLATION
A convertible seat is used in forward-
facing and rear- facing position depend-
ing on the child’s age and size. When
installing, follow the manufacturer’s
instruction about the applicable child’s
age and size as well as directions for
installing a child restraint system.
CAUTION
Rear- facing child restraint system:
Never put a rear- facing child restraint
system on the right front seat with
the passenger airbag manual on- off
switch in the “ON” position. In the
event of an accident, the force of the
rapid inflation of the passenger air-
bag can cause death or serious injury
to the child.
When you put a rear- facing child re-
straint system which belongs to a pas-
senger risk group on the right front
seat, turn the passenger airbag manual
on- off switch counterclockwise to the
“OFF” position. (For details, see “SRS
driver and front passenger airbags” in
this section.)
The indicator comes on when the system
is off.
