Safety information for children
●It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid accidental con-
tact with the shift lever, wiper switch, etc.
●Use the rear door child-protector lock or the window lock switch to avoid
children opening the door while driving or operating the power window acci-
dentally. ( P. 117, 158)
●Do not let small children operate equi pment which may catch or pinch body
parts, such as the power window, hood, back door, seats etc.
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child becomes
large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
WA R N I N G
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use
the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or sh ift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a
danger that children may injure themselves by playing with the windows, the moon roof
(if equipped) or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely
cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

■When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following when installing child restraint system to the front passenger seat
if it is unavoidable. The fr ont passenger SRS air bag inflates with considerable speed
and force that if not observed may lead to death or serious injury to the child.
●Never install a rear-facing ch ild restraint system on the front passenger seat even if
the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator lig ht is illuminated. In the event of an accident, the force
of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to
the child if the rear-facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger
seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint system ma y be installed on the front passenger seat
only when it is unavoidable. A child restra int system that requires a top tether strap
should not be used in the front passenger seat since there is no top tether strap
anchor for the front passenger seat.
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body against the
door or the area of the seat, front pillars or roof side rails from which the SRS side air-
bags or SRS curtain shield ai rbags deploy even if the child is seated in the child
restraint system. It is dangerous if the SRS side and curtain shield airbags inflate, and
the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.
●When a booster seat is installed, always en sure that the shoulder belt is positioned
across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the child’s
neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s shoulder.
●A forward-facing child restraint system may
be installed on the front passenger seat only
when it is unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on the front
passenger seat, move the seat as far back as
possible, and raise the seat to the upper most
position, even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated.
If the head restraint interferes with the child
restraint system inst allation and the head
restraint can be removed, remove the head
restraint.

When using a child restraint system on a rear seat
WA R N I N G
■When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Use child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and install it to the
rear seat.
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body against the
door or the area of the seat, rear pillars or roof side rails from which the SRS curtain
shield airbag deploys even if the child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dan-
gerous if the SRS curtain sh ield airbag inflates, and the impact could cause death or
serious injury to the child.
●If the driver’s seat interferes with the child
restraint system and prevents it from being
attached correctly, attach the child restraint
system to the right-hand rear seat.
●Adjust the front passenger seat so that it does
not interfere with the child restraint system.
