SAFETY INFORMATION
• Do not leave children, pets or people needing assistance in the vehicle
unattended, especially in hot weather when the inside of the vehicle can get
hot enough to kill them. They could also activate vehicle controls, causing it to
move unexpectedly.
Children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained can be seriously injured
or killed in a crash.
Any child too small for a seat belt should be properly restrained in a child seat.
A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a booster
seat if necessary.
Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck can
result in serious injury or death.
Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unused seat
belt a child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
Protecting Infants
n
An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until
the infant reaches the seat manufacturer's weight or height limit for the seat,
22 |
and the infant is at least one year old. Because rear-facing child seats should
not be used in this vehicle, you should never carry an infant in this vehicle.
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the passenger's seat can result in serious
injury or death during a crash.
Never install a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle.
Protecting Smaller Children
n
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we recommend that you do not
carry a child, age 12 or under, as a passenger. This is because placing a forward-
facing child seat in the passenger's seat can be hazardous, even with advanced
front airbags that automatically turn the passenger's front airbag off.
If you choose to ignore our warnings and transport a small child in this vehicle,
be sure to move the passenger seat as far to the rear as possible, and follow the
instructions and guidelines in the following pages.
Placing a forward-facing child seat in the passenger's seat can result in serious
injury or death if the front airbag inflates.
If you must place a forward-facing child seat in passenger's seat, move the
vehicle seat as far back as possible, and properly restrain the child.
