■
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 passenger seat, the system may not
recognize him/her as an adult depending on his/her physique and
posture.
*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.
*3: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt.
*4: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or child inconvertible seat, the system may not recognize him/her as a child.
Factors which may affect this can be the physique or posture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front pas-senger seat. A forward-facing child restraint system should only
be installed on the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable.
(→ P. 9 8 )
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual on
how to install the child restraint system properly. ( →P. 102)
