Children can be killed or seriously injured by
an inflating air bag. Note the following
important information when circumstances
require you to place a child in the front pas-
senger seat:

If you must install a rear-facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat
because circumstances require you to
do so, make sure that the

If you have to place a child in a
forward-facing child restraint on the
front passenger seat, move the seat as
far back as possible, use the proper
child restraint recommended for the
age, size and weight of the child, and
secure child restraint with the vehicle’s
seat belt according to the child seat
manufacturer’s instructions. For
children larger than the typical
59

the59 indicator lamp not

Your vehicle is equipped with air bag
technology designed to turn off the front

A child in a rear-facing child restraint on
the front passenger seat will be serious-
ly injured or even killed if the front
passenger front air bag inflates in a
collision which could occur under some
circumstances, even with the air bag
technology installed in your vehicle. The
only means to completely eliminate this
risk is to never place a child in a rear-fac-
ing child restraint in the front seat. We
therefore strongly recommend that you
always place a child in a rear-facing child
restraint in the back seat.
