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 not
recognize him/her as an adult depending on his/her physique and
posture.
*2: In the event the front passen ger 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 in
convertible seat, the system may not recognize him/her as a
child. Factors which may affect this can be the physique or pos-
ture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat. A forward-facing ch ild restraint system should only
be installed on the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable.
( P. 122)
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual
on how to install the child restraint system properly. ( P. 126)
