An infant in a rearward-facing child restraint installed on the front passenger seat will be seri‐
ously injured and can be killed if the front airbag inflates – even with an Advanced Airbag
System.
Always make certain that children age12 or younger always ride in the rear seat. If children
are not properly restrained, they may be severely injured or killed when the airbag inflates.
Never let children ride unrestrained or improperly restrained in the vehicle.
Adjust the front seats properly.
Never ride with the backrest reclined.
Always sit as far as possible from the steering wheel or the instrument panel.
Always sit upright with your back against the backrest of your seat.
Never put your feet on the instrument panel or on the seat.
Always keep both feet on the floor in front of the seat to help prevent serious injuries to the
head, legs and hips if the airbag inflates.
WARNING
Objects between you and the airbag will increase the risk of injury in a crash by interfering with
the way the airbag unfolds and/or by being pushed into you as the airbag inflates.
Never hold things in your hands or on your lap when the vehicle is moving.
Never place accessories or other objects (such as cup holders, telephone brackets, or things
that are large, heavy, or bulky) on the doors or attach them to the doors; never place them
over or near the area marked AIRBAG on the steering wheel, instrument panel, or seat back‐
rests or between those areas and someone in the vehicle. These objects could cause injury in
a crash, especially if an airbag inflates.
Never recline the front passenger seat to transport objects. Items can also move into the de‐
ployment area of the side airbags or the front airbag during braking or in a sudden maneuver.
Objects near the airbags can fly dangerously through the passenger compartment and cause
injury, particularly when the seat is reclined and the airbags inflate.
Never place or transport objects on the front passenger seat. Always make sure that there is
nothing on the front passenger seat that will cause the capacitive sensor in the seat to signal
to the airbag system that the seat is occupied by a person when it in fact is not, or that the per‐
son on the seat is heavier than he or she actually is. The change in electric capacitance be‐
cause of such objects can cause the passenger front airbag to be turned on when it should be
