The passenger’s airbag poses
serious risks to small children. If the
vehicle seat is too far forward, or the
child’s head is thrown forward
during a collision, or the child is
unrestrained or improperly
restrained, an inflating airbag can kill
or seriously injure the child.
For these reasons, we recommend
that you do not carry a small child as
a passenger.
If you decide to carry a small child in
this car, follow the instructions and
guidelines below.
A child at least one year old who can
sit up without support, and who fits
within the child seat maker’s weight
and height limits, should be
restrained in a forward-facing,
upright child seat.
We also recommend that a small
child stay in the child seat as long as
possible, until the child reaches the
weight or height limit for the seat.
Of the different seats available, we
recommend those that have a five-
point harness system as shown. If it is necessary to put a forward-
facing child seat in the passenger’s
seat, move the passenger’s seat as
far to the rear as possible, be sure
the child seat is firmly secured to the
car, and the child is properly
strappedintheseat.
