■
There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a
smaller adult sits in the front pa ssenger seat, the system may rec-
ognize him/her as a child depending on his/her physique and pos-
ture.
*2: In the event the front passenge r does not wear a seat belt.
*3: When a large child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits
in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as
an adult depending on his/her physique or posture.
*4: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front pas- senger seat. A forward-facing chil d restraint system should only
be installed on the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable.
(  P. 132)
*5: In case the indicator is not illumin ated, consult this manual as for
installing the child restraint system properly. ( P. 137)
