Seats and Restraints
CAUTION
Although your vehicle is
equipped with a passenger air
bag deactivation feature which
is designed to turn off the
passenger's air bag under
certain conditions, no system is
fail-safe. No one can guarantee
that an air bag will not deploy
under some unusual
circumstance, even though the
system is deactivated.

CAUTION
(Continued)
It is therefore recommended
that children in child restraints
and older children who are
large enough to wear a safety
belt be secured in a rear seat
position.
In fact, because the risk to a
rear-facing child is so great if
the air bag deploys, there is a
label on your vehicle's sun visor
that cautions you never to put a
rear-facing child seat in the
front.
CAUTION
A child in a forward-facing child
restraint in the front passenger
seating position could be seri-
ously injured or killed if an air
bag inflates and the passenger
seat is in a forward position.
If, however, you secure a
forward-facing child restraint in
the front passenger seat, be
sure to move the front passen-
ger seat as far back as it will go.
