■There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller 
adult sits in the front passenger  seat, the system may not recognize 
him/her as an adult  depending on his/her  physique and posture.
*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.
*3: In the event the front passenge r does not wear a seat belt.
*4: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or chi ld in convert-
ible seat, the system  may not recognize him/her as a child. Fac tors 
which may affect this can be the physique or posture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing ch ild restraint system on the front passenger 
seat. A forward-facing  child restraint system should only be in stalled on 
the front passenger sea t when it is unavoidable. ( P.50)
*6: In case the indicator light is  not illuminated, consult this m anual on how 
to install the child restr aint system properly. (P. 5 2 )
