airbag ON/OFF indicator -
When installing child re-
straint systems to the front

passenger's seat

WARNING
. Never install a rearward facing
child restraint system. Other-
wise, there is an increased risk
of injury to the child when the
airbags are deployed, even when
a child restraint system is used.
. When you install a child restraint
system, follow the manufac-
turer's instructions supplied with
it. After installing the child re-
straint system, check to ensure
that it is held securely in posi-
tion. If it is not held tight and
secure, the danger in the event of
an accident may be increased.
. Do not place the removed head
restraint in the passenger com-
partment to prevent it from being
thrown around in a sudden stop
or a sharp turn.
. When the SRS airbag system
warning indicator illuminates, in-
Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/Child restraint systems
stall the child restraint system to
the rear seat.
CAUTION
For safety reasons, always install a
child restraint system to the rear
seat. When it is unavoidable, only
forward facing child restraint sys-
tem can be installed in the front
passenger's seat. For details, refer
to "When installing the child re-
straint system to the front passen-
ger's seat" F1-37.
