WARNING
Never place a rear facing child re‐
straint in the front passenger seat,
unless the passenger-side air bag is
deactivated. An inflating passenger-
side air bag could impact the rear-
facing child restraint and kill the
child.
In addition, we recommend that you do
not place front-facing child restraints
in the front passenger's seat either. If
the front passenger's air bag inflates, it
could cause serious or fatal injuries to
the child.
If your vehicle is equipped with the pas‐
senger's front air bag ON/OFF switch,
you can activate or deactivate the
front passenger's air bag when neces‐
sary.
For more details, please refer to Pas‐
senger's front air bag ON/OFF switch
on page 4-54 (if equipped).
WARNING
• NEVER use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by an
ACTIVE AIR BAG in front of it,
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the
CHILD can occur.
• When children are seated in the
rear outboard seats of a vehicle
equipped with side and/or curtain
air bags, be sure to install the child
restraint system as far away from
the door side as possible, and se‐
curely lock the child restraint sys‐
tem in position.
Inflation of side and/or curtain air
bags could cause serious injury or
death to an infant or child.
