CAUTION
A forward- facing child restraint sys-
tem should be allowed to be put on
the front seat only when it is un-
avoidable. Always move the seat as
far back as possible, because the
force of the deploying airbag could
cause death or serious injury to the
child. Do not allow the child to lean
against the front door or around the
front door even if the child is seated
in the child restraint system. It is
dangerous if the side airbag inflates,
and the impact could cause death or
serious injury to the child.

across the child's shoulder and that the
lap belt is positioned as low as possible
on child's hips. See Seat beltsº for de-
tails.
CAUTION

Always make sure the shoulder belt
is positioned across the center of

lision.

Both high- positioned lap belts and
loose- fitting belts could cause seri-
ous injuries due to sliding under
the lap belt during a collision or
other unintended result. Keep the
lap belt position as low on hips as
possible.

For child's safety, do not place the
shoulder belt under child's arm.
