Caution for installing the child re-
straint on vehicles with a front passen-
ger airbag
E00406500318
The
label shown here is attached on vehicles with a
front passenger airbag. WARNING
l Extreme Hazard!
Do

not use a rearward facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it! Use rearward facing child restraints in the rear seat
or

turn off the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch. (Refer to “To turn an airbag off” on page
3-23)
Front passenger’s airbag ON WARNING
l A
REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag has not been deactivated. The force
of an inflating airbag could kill or cause
serious injuries to the child. A rearward
facing child restraint must only be used
in the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if used in the front
seat, turn off the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch. Infants and small children
E00406600999
When

transporting infants and small children in
your vehicle, follow the instruction given below. Instruction:
l For

small infants, an infant carrier should be
used. For small children whose height when
seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in con-
tact with the face or the throat, a child seat
should be used.
l The child restraint system should be appropri-
ate for the child’s weight and height and prop-
erly fit in the vehicle. For a higher degree of
safety: THE CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR
SEAT. Seat and seat belts

How the Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem works
E00407301600
The SRS includes the following components: 1- Airbag module (Driver)
2-
Airbag module (Passenger)
3- Front passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp 4- Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch 5- Side airbag modules
6-

Curtain airbag modules
The airbags will operate only when the electric mo-
tor switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud
noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but
these conditions are not injurious, and do not indi-
cate a fire in the vehicle. People with respiratory
problems may feel some temporary irritation from
chemicals used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if safe to do
so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deployment,
so there is little danger of obscured vision. CAUTION
l
Airbags
inflate at an extremely rapid
speed. In certain situations, contact with
inflating airbags can result in abrasions,
light cuts, bruises, and the like. WARNING
l IT
IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP-
ERLY SEATED.
A driver or front passenger too close to
the steering wheel or instrument panel
during airbag deployment can be killed
or seriously injured.
Airbags inflate very fast, and with great
force.
If the driver and front passenger are not
properly seated and restrained, the air-
bags may not protect you properly, and
could cause serious or fatal injuries when
it inflates.
l Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or lean
head or chest close to the steering wheel
or instrument panel. Do not put feet or
legs on or against the instrument panel.
l Place all infants and small children in the
rear seat and properly restrained using
an appropriate child restraint system.
The rear seat is the safest place for in-
fants and children. Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l Infants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the in-
strument panel or be held in your arms
or on your lap. They could be seriously in-
jured or killed in a collision, including
when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in the rear seat in an ap-
propriate child restraint system. See the
“Child restraint” section of this owner’s
manual. Use rearward facing child restraints in the rear seat
or

turn off the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch. (Refer to “To turn an airbag off” on page
3-23)
Front passenger’s airbag ON WARNING
l A
REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag has not been deactivated. The force
of an inflating airbag could kill or cause
serious injuries to the child.
A rearward facing child restraint must on-
ly be used in the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if they must be used
in the front passenger seat, turn off the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
Failure to do so could kill or cause seri-
ous injuries to the child. WARNING
l Older
children should be seated in the
rear seat, properly wearing the seat belt,
with an appropriate booster seat if needed.
