Never put a rear facing child restraint in the right
front passenger seat unless the airbag is off.
Here is why:
CAUTION:
{
Even though the passenger sensing
system is designed to turn off the
passenger's frontal airbag if the system
detects a rear-facing child restraint, no
system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an airbag will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off. We recommend
that rear-facing child restraints be
transported in vehicles with a rear seat
that will accommodate a rear-facing child
restraint, whenever possible.
If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it means that
the right front passenger's frontal airbag is enabled
(may inflate).
CAUTION:
{
If the on indicator comes on when you
have a rear-facing child restraint installed
in the right front passenger's seat, it means
that the passenger sensing system has not
turned off the passenger's frontal airbag. A
child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger's airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the rear-facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inflating airbag. Do not use a rear-facing
child restraint in the right front passenger's
seat if the airbag is turned on.
