as possible, because the force of a deploying
airbag could cause death or serious injury to the
child. Make sure you have compiled with all
installation instructions provided by the child
restraint manufacturer and that the system is
properly secured.

itself be properly restrained on the seat with either the
lap or the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt. You must
carefully consult the manufacturer's instructions
which accompany by your child restraint system.
To provide proper restraint, use a child restraint system
following the manufacturer's instructions about the
appropriate age and size of the child for the restraint system.
Install the child restraint system correctly following the
instructions provided by its manufacturer of the system.
General directions are also provided under the following
illustrations.

seat. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.

on the front seat. In the event of an accident, the
force of the rapid inflation of the airbag can cause
death or serious injury if a rear±facing child
restraint system is put on the front seat.

forward±facing child restraint system on the front
seat.

injuring passengers in the event of a sudden stop or
accident.
