SEATS AND RESTRAINTS

Securing Child Restraints
(With the Seat Belt in the
Front Seat)

This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is
a safer place to secure a
forward-facing child restraint. See

.

In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system which is
designed to turn off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag under certain conditions.
See

for more information, including
important safety information.

Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front. This is because the risk to
the rear-facing child is so great, if the
airbag deploys.

A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured or
killed if the front outboard

Warning (Continued)

passenger frontal airbag inflates.
This is because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag.
A child in a forward-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured or
killed if the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag inflates
and the passenger seat is in a
forward position.

Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the front
outboard passenger airbag(s), no
system is fail-safe. No one can
guarantee that an airbag will not
deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though the
airbag(s) are off.

Secure rear-facing child restraints
in a rear seat, even if the airbag(s)
are off. If you secure a
forward-facing child restraint in the
front outboard passenger seat,

Warning (Continued)

always move the seat as far back as
it will go. It is better to secure the
child restraint in a rear seat.

for additional information.

If the child restraint uses a top tether,

for top

tether anchor locations.

Do not secure a child seat in a
position without a top tether anchor if
a national or local law requires that
the top tether be anchored, or if the
instructions that come with the child
restraint say that the top tether must
be anchored.

In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have a
top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
