Installing a child restraint on a
front passenger seat is forbid-den.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat.
If the airbag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraint in the front passenger
seat either. If the front passenger
airbag inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries to the improperly
positioned or improperly restrainedchild.

Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it!

away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child

Care of cassette tapes (if equipped)
Because the thickness of a cas-
sette tape with the total playback
time of over 60 minutes (C-60) are
too thin, we suggest that you do
not use any of them to avoid hav-ing tapes being tangled.
To achieve better sound quality, periodically clean the tape head
using a cotton stick with colorlessalcohol (once per month).
If a tape is too loose, fasten it to reel by winding with objects like a pencil.
Because dust or foreign objects on a cassette tape may damage the
playback head, always store tapes
in their cases when not in use.
Make sure cassette tapes are kept away from magnetic devices (TV,stereo system, etc) in order to
achieve better sound quality.
Be certain that no objects or sub-stances other than cassette tapes are
inserted into the cassette tape player.
Because tape media can be dis- torted when exposed to direct sun-
light, Do not leave cassette tapes
on the seats, dashboard or near
the back windshield. Care of disc (if equipped)
If the temperature inside the car is too
high, open the car windows for venti-
lation before using your car audio.

To prevent the disc surface from getting damaged. Hold and carry
CDs by the edges or the edges of
the center hole only.

Make sure on undesirable matter other than CDs are inserted into
the CD player (Do not insert morethan one CD at a time). Keep CDs in their cases after use
