34 || 35
SAFETYSAFETY
• Never put a seat belt over yourself or a passenger and a child. During a crash, the belt would
likely pr
ess deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
•
Never let two children use

the same seat belt. Both children could be very seriously injured
in a crash.
•
Do not allow childr

en to operate the doors, windows, or seat adjustments.
•
Do not leave children in the

vehicle unattended, especially in hot weather when the inside
of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could also activate vehicle controls,
causing it to move unexpectedly.
Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck can result in
serious injury or death.
Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unused seat belt a
child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
WARNING
Children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained can be seriously injured or
killed in a crash.
Any child too small for a seat belt should be properly restrained in a child seat.
A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a booster seat if
necessary.
WARNING
n Protecting Infants
An infant must be properly r
estrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the infant
reaches the seat maker’s weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant is at least one
year old. Because rear-facing child seats should not be used in this vehicle, you should
never carry an infant in this vehicle.
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the front seat can result in serious injury or
death during a crash.
Never install a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle.
WARNING

SAFETYSAFETY
n Protecting Smaller Children
If a child is at least one y
ear old and within the weight range indicated by the child seat
manufacturer, the child should be properly restrained in a firmly secured forward-facing
child seat.
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, Acura recommends that you do not carry a
child, age 12 or under, as a passenger. This is because placing a forward-facing child seat in
the passenger’s seat can be hazardous, even with advanced front airbags that automatically
turn the passenger’s front airbag off.
If you choose to ignore our warnings and transport a small child in this vehicle, be sure
to move the passenger seat as far to the rear as possible, and follow the instructions and
guidelines in the following pages.
Placing a forward-facing child seat in the front seat can result in serious injury or
death if the front airbag inflates.
If you must place a forward-facing child seat in front, move the vehicle seat as
far back as possible, and properly restrain the child.
WARNING
n Selecting a Child Seat
Important consideration when selecting a child seat
Mak
e sure the child seat meets the following three requirements:
•
The child seat is the correct type and siz

e for the child.
•
The child seat is the correct type

for the seating position.
•
The child seat is compliant with Federal Motor V

ehicle Safety Standard 213 or Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

SAFETYSAFETY
If a lap/shoulder belt cannot be used properly, position the child in a booster seat in the
passenger’s position. For the child’s safety, check that the child meets the booster seat
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Some U.S. states and Canadian provinces/territories require children to use a booster seat
until they reach a given age or weight (e.g., 6 years or 60 lbs). Be sure to check current laws
in the state or province/territory where you intend to drive.
Allowing a child age 12 or under to sit in the vehicle can result in injury or death
if the passenger’s front airbag inflates.
If a larger child must ride in front, move the vehicle seat as far to the rear as
possible, then have the child sit up properly and wear the seat belt properly,
using a booster seat if needed.
