1-3. Child Restraint

Essential Safety Equipment
If you cannot put all children in the rear seat, at least put the smallest
children in the rear and be sure the largest child up front uses a front-
facing child-restraint system.
NEVER put a rear-facing child-restraint system on the front passenger
seat whether your vehicle is equipped with a occupant classification
sensor or not.
This seat is also not set up for tethered child-restraint systems, put
them in one of the rear seat positions set up with tether anchors.
Likewise the LATCH child-restraint system cannot be secured in the
front passenger’s seat and should be used in the rear seat.
Do not allow anyone to lean over or against the side window since
your vehicle has side and curtain air bags, it could cause serious inju-
ries to an out of position occupant. As children more often sleep in
cars, it is better to put them in the rear seat.
If installing the child-restraint system on the front seat is unavoidable,
follow these instructions when using a front-facing child-restraint sys-
tem in the front passenger’s seat.
To check if your front seats have side air bags:
The vehicle equipped with side air bag will have a “SRS AIRBAG” tag on the
outboard shoulder of the front seats.
To check if your vehicle has curtain air bags:
The vehicle equipped with curtain air bag will have an “SRS AIRBAG” mark-
ing on the window pillars along the roof edge.
WARNING
Always attach the tether strap to the correct tether anchor position
Attaching the tether strap to the incorrect tether anchor position is danger-
ous. In a collision, the tether strap could come off and loosen the child-
restraint system. If the child-restraint system moves it could result in death
or injury to the child.
Always install the head restraint and adjust it to the appropriate posi-
tion after removing the child-restraint system
Driving with the head restraint removed is dangerous as impact to the occu-
pant’s head cannot be prevented during emergency braking or in a collision,
which could result in a serious accident, injury or death.
Refer to Head Restraints on P. 30.
