When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

●

Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger
seat even if the “AIRBAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated. In the event of
an accident, the force of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag
can cause death or serious injury to the child if the rear-facing child
restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat.

●

A forward-facing child restraint system may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is unavoidable. A child restraint system that
requires a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat
since there is no top tether strap anchor for the front passenger seat.

●

A forward-facing child restraint system
may be installed on the front passenger
seat only when it is unavoidable. When
installing a forward-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger seat,
move the seat as far back as possible,
and raise the seat to the upper most
position, even if the “AIRBAG OFF” indi-
cator light is illuminated. 
If the head restraint interferes with the
child restraint system installation and
the head restraint can be removed,
remove the head restraint.

●

Do not allow the child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body against
the door or the area of the seat, front or
rear pillars, or roof side rails from which
the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain
shield airbags deploy even if the child is
seated in the child restraint system. It is
dangerous if the SRS side airbags and
curtain shield airbags inflate, and the
impact could cause death or serious
injury to the child.
