Leaving a child without adult
supervision is illegal in most states
and Canadian provinces and can
be very hazardous. For example, a
small child left in a car on a hot
day can die from heatstroke. A
child left alone with the key in the
ignition can accidentally set the
car in motion, possibly injuring
themselves or others.
As discussed on page , because
your car does not have a back seat,
and because of the passenger’s
airbag hazard, we strongly
recommend that you do not carry a
small child as a passenger in this car.
However, if you must carry a small
child in this car, the child must be
properly restrained in a child seat.
The following pages give general
guidelines for selecting and installing
a child seat. See page for
additional information.
Children who play in vehicles can
accidentally get trapped inside the
car. Teach your children not to
play in or around vehicles.
Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition,
and open the hatch, which can
lead to accidental injury or death.

Driver and Passenger Saf ety
Do not leave a child alone in your
car.
Lock both doors and the hatch
when your vehicle is not in use.
Keep vehicle keys and remote
transmitters out of the reach of
children.
