■When installing a child restraint
system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In
the event that the rear seat cannot be
used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag manual on-off sys-
tem is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is
left on, the strong impact of the airbag deployment (inflation) may cause
serious injury or even death.
■When a child restraint system is
not installed on the front passen-
ger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off
system is set to “ON”.
If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident,
which may result in serious injury or
even death.
Riding with children
Observe the following precau-
tions 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.
It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact with
the shift lever, wiper switch,
etc.
Use the rear door child-protec-
tor lock or the window lock
switch to avoid children open-
ing the door while driving or
operating the power window
accidentally. ( P.123, 153)
Do not let small children oper-
ate equipment which may
catch or pinch body parts,
such as the power window,
hood, back door, seats, etc.

501-2. Child safety
■When installing a child
restraint system to a front pas-
senger seat
For the safety of a child, install a
child restraint system to a rear seat.
When installing a child restraint
system to a front passenger seat is
unavoidable, adjust the seat as fol-
lows and install t he child restraint
system:
Move the front seat fully rear-
ward.
Adjust the seat height to the
upper most position.
Adjust the seatback angle to the
most upright position.
If there is a gap between the child seat
and the seatback, adjust the seatback
angle until good contact is achieved.
If the head restraint interferes
with your child restraint system,
and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head
restraint.
Otherwise, put the head restraint in the
upper most position.
WA R N I N G
●Depending on the child restraint
system, installation may be difficult
or impossible. In those cases, check whether the child restraint
system is suitable for installment in
the vehicle. ( P.52, 58) Be sure to install and observe the usage rules
after carefully reading the child
restraint system fixing method in
this manual, as well as the opera- tion manual enclosed with the child
restraint system.
●Keep the child re straint system
properly secured on the seat even if
it is not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in
the passenger compartment.
●If it is necessary to detach the child
restraint system, remove it from the
vehicle or store it securely in the luggage compartment.

■When using a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Never use a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat when the airbag man- ual on-off switch is on. ( P.46) The
force of the rapid inflation of the
front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to children in
the event of an accident.

●Only put a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front seat
when unavoidable. When installing a forward-facing child restraint on
the front passenger seat, move the
seat as far back as possible. Failing to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury if the airbags deploy
(inflate).
●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 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.
●When a junior seat is installed,
always ensure 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.
●Use child restrain t system suitable to the age and size of the child and
install it to the rear seat.
●If the driver’s seat interferes with
the child restraint system and pre-
vents it from being attached cor- rectly, attach th e child restraint
system to the right-hand rear seat
(left-hand drive vehicles) or the left-hand rear seat (right-hand drive
vehicles). ( P.56, 62)

When securing some types of child
restraint systems in rear seat, it
may not be possible to properly use
the seat belts in positions next to
the child restraint without interfering
with it or affecting seat belt effec-
tiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits
snugly across your shoulder and
low on your hips. If it does not, or if
it interferes with the child restraint,
move to a different position. Failure
