Never install infant or child age 1
to 12 in a passenger risk group on
the passenger seat with the passen-
ger airbag manual on–off switch in
the "ON" position. In the event of
an accident, the force of the rapid
inflation of the passenger airbag
can cause death or serious injury
to the child.
If you must install infant or child
age 1 to 12 in a passenger risk
group on the passenger seat, make
sure the passenger airbag manual
on–off switch is in the
position and that the indicator light
is on. (For details, see "SRS driver
airbag and passenger airbag" on
page 37 in this Section.
D
Do not use the seat belt extender
when installing a
system on the passenger seat. If
installing a child restraint system
with the seat belt extender con-
nected to the seat belt, the seat
belt will not securely hold the child
restraint system, which could cause
death or serious injury to the child
or other passenger in the event of
collision.
D
Make sure you have complied with
all installation instructions provided
"OFF" by the child restraint manufacturer
and that the system is properly se-
cured. If it is not secured properly,
it may cause death or serious injury
to the child in the event of a sud-
den stop or accident.
—Child restraint system
A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must be properly re-
child restraint
strained on the seat with the lap por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt. You must
carefully consult the manufacturer's in-
structions which accompany the child
restraint system.
To provide proper restraint, use a child
restraint system following the manufactur-
er's instructions about the appropriate age
and size of the child for the child restraint
system.
Install the child restraint system correctly
following the instructions provided by its
manufacturer. General directions are also
provided under the following illustrations.
When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it in somewhere other than the passenger
compartment. This will prevent it from in-
juring passenger in the event of a sudden
stop or accident.
