■Front passenger occupant classification system precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the front passenger occupant
classification system.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
● Wear the seat belt properly.
● Make sure the front passenger’s seat belt plate has not been le ft inserted
into the buckle before someone sits in the front passenger seat .
● Make sure the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is not illuminated when using

the seat belt buckle, and reconnect the seat belt. Reconnect the seat belt
extender after making sure the “AIR BAG ON” indicator light is illuminated.
If you use the seat belt extender while the “AIR BAG OFF” indic ator light is
illuminated, the SRS airbags for the front passenger will not a ctivate,
which could cause death or serious injury in the event of a col lision.
● Do not apply a heavy load to the front passenger seat or equipm ent (e.g.
seatback pockets).
● Do not put weight on the front passenger seat by putting your hands or
feet on the front passenger seat seatback from the rear passeng er seat.

ating the power window accidentally.
● Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the power window, hood, tailgate, sea ts,

Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehi -
cle.
Use a child restraint system app ropriate for the child, until the

belt.

WARNING
■Child restraint precautions
● Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restr aint system
on the front or rear passenger seat. If installing a child rest raint system
with the seat belt extender connected to the seat belt, the seat belt will not
securely hold the child restraint system, which could cause dea th or seri-
ous injury to the child or other passengers in the event of an accident.
● 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 and rear pillar s or roof side
rails from which the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield air bags deploy
even if the child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if
the SRS side airbags and curtain shield airbags inflate, and th e impact
could cause death or serious injury to the child.
● Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by
the child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properl y secured. If
it is not secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child
in the event of a sudden stop or an accident.
■ When children are in the vehicle
Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes
twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries
that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors sh ould be used
to cut the belt.
■ When the child restraint system is not in use
● Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat ev en if it is
not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the pas-
senger compartment.
● If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the
vehicle. This will prevent it from injuring passengers in the event of a sud-
den stop or an accident.
