The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A.
as well as Canada now require the use
of child restraint systems.
 Prioritize and observe the warnings,
as well as the laws and regulations
Riding with children
Observe the following precautions
when children are in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system appro-
priate for the child, until the child
becomes large eno ugh to properly
wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
 It is recommended that children
sit in the rear seats to avoid acci-
dental contact 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 accidentally.
( P.107, 132)
 Do not let small children operate
equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the
power window, hood, trunk, seats
etc.
WARNING
QWhen children are in the vehicle
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 shift the vehicle into neutral. There is
also a danger that children may injure
themselves by playing with the windows,
the moon roof or other features of the
vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the
vehicle can be fatal to children.
Child restraint systems
Before installing a child restraint
system in the vehicle, there are pre-
cautions that need to be observed,
different types of child restraint sys-
tems, as well as installation meth-
ods, etc., written in this manual.
Use a child restraint system when
riding with a small child that cannot
properly use a seat belt. For the
child’s safety, install the child
restraint system to a rear seat. Be
sure to follow the installation method
that is in the operation manual
enclosed with the restraint system.

Adjust the lumbar support to the
lowest position.
 Adjust the pelvic support
* to the
lowest position.

WARNING
QWhen using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
ONever install a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passen-
ger seat even if the “PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illu-
minated. 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.
OA forward-facing child restraint sys-
tem may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is
unavoidable. A child restraint 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.
OA forward-facing child restraint sys-
tem may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is
unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, adjust the
seatback angle to the most upright
position, move the seat to the rearmost
position, and raise the seat to the
upper most position, even if the “PAS-
SENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated.
ODo 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 or rear pillars, or roof side rails
from which the SRS side airbags or
SRS curtain shield airbags 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.
