WARNING! (Continued)
• Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a
vehicle with a rear seat.
• A deploying passenger front airbag can
cause death or serious injury to a child
12 years or younger, including a child in a
rear-facing child restraint.
• In a collision, an unrestrained child can
become a projectile inside the vehicle. The
force required to hold even an infant on
your lap could become so great that you
could not hold the child, no matter how
strong you are. The child and others could
be badly injured or killed. Any child riding in
your vehicle should be in a proper restraint
for the child's size.
There are different sizes and types of restraints
for children from newborn size to the child
almost large enough for an adult safety belt.
Children should ride rearward facing as long as
possible; this is the most protected position for a
child in the event of a crash. Always check the
child seat Owner's Manual to make sure you
have the correct seat for your child. Carefully
read and follow all the instructions and warnings
in the child restraint Owner's Manual and on all
the labels attached to the child restraint.

In Europe, children restraint systems are de-
fined by regulation ECE-R44, which divides
them into five weight groups:
Restraint Group
Weight Group
Group 0
up to 10 kg
Group 0+
up to 13 kg
Group 1
Group 2
Group 3
Check the label of your child restraint. All ap-
proved child restraints must include type-
approval data and the control mark on its label.
The label must be permanently secured to the
child restraint system. You should not remove
this label from the child restraint.
WARNING!
Extreme Hazard! Do not place a rear-facing
child restraint in front of an active air bag.
Refer to visor mounted labels for information.
Deployment of the air bag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the baby regard-
less of the severity of the collision. It is
advisable to always carry children in a child
restraint system on the rear seat, which is the
most protected position in the event of a
collision.
