WARNING
• A child restraint system must
be placed in the rear seat.
Never install a child or infant
seat on the front passenger's
seat.
Should an accident occur and
cause the passenger air bag
to deploy, it could severely
injure or kill an infant or child
seated in an infant or child
seat. Thus, only use a child
restraint in the rear seat of
your vehicle.

• Since a seat belt or child
restraint system can become
very hot if it is left in a closed
vehicle, be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.
• When the child restraint sys-
tem is not in use, store it in the
trunk or fasten it with a seat
belt so that it will not be

thrown forward in the case of
a sudden stop or an accident.
• Children who are too large to
be in a child restraint should
sit in the rear seat and be
restrained with the available
lap/shoulder
allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat.
(Continued)
• Always make sure that the
shoulder belt portion of the
outboard lap/shoulder belt is
positioned midway over the
shoulder, never across the
neck or behind the back.
Moving the child closer to the
center of the vehicle may help
provide a good shoulder belt
fit. The lap belt portion of the
lap/shoulder belt must always
be positioned as low as possi-
ble on the child's hips and as
snug as possible.
• If the seat belt will not proper-
ly fit the child, we recommend
the use of an approved boost-
belts. Never
er seat in the rear seat in order
to raise the child's seating
height so that the seat belt will
