A forward- facing child restraint sys-
tem should be allowed to
installed on the front passenger
seat only when it is unavoidable.
Always move the seat as far back
as possible even if the front pas-
senger occupant classification indi-
cator light indicates "OFF", because
the front passenger airbag could in-
flate with considerable speed and
force. Otherwise, the child may be
killed or seriously injured.
"
On vehicles with side airbags and
curtain shield airbags, do not allow
the child to lean his/her head or
any part of his/her body against the
door or the area of the seat, front
or rear pillar or roof side rail from
which the side airbags or curtain
shield airbags deploy even if the
child is seated in the child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the side
airbag and/or curtain shield airbag
inflate, and the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.

Do not use the seat belt extender
be when installing a child
system on the front or rear passen-
ger seat. If installing a child re-
straint system with the seat belt
extender connected to the seat belt,
the seat belt will not securely hold
the child restraint system, which
could cause death or serious injury
to the child or other passengers in
the event of collision.

Make sure you have complied with
all installation instructions provided
by the child restraint manufacturer
and that the system is properly se-
cured. If it is not secured properly,
it may cause death or serious injury
to the child in the event of a sud-
den stop or accident.
—Child restraint system
A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must itself be properly
restraint
restrained on the seat with the lap por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt. You must
carefully consult the
instructions which accompany the child
restraint system.
To provide proper restraint, use a child
restraint system following the manufactur-
er's instructions about the appropriate age
and size of the child for the child restraint
system.
Install the child restraint system correctly
following the instructions provided by its
manufacturer. General directions are also
provided under the following illustrations.

accident statistics, the child is safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than
in the front seat.
When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it somewhere other than the passenger
compartment. This will prevent it from in-
juring passengers in the event of a sud-
den stop or accident.
