Protecting Small Children - Honda RSX 2005 Owner's Manual

Main Menu Table of Contents
In either situation, we strongly
recommend that you install the child
seat directly behind the front
passenger seat, move the front seat
as far forward as needed, and leave it
unoccupied. Or you may wish to get
a smaller child seat that allows you
to safely carry a front passenger.
Placing a rear-facing child seat
in the front seat can result in
serious injury or death if the
passenger's front airbag inflates.
Always place a rear-facing child
seat in the back seat, not the
front.

Protecting Small Children

Child Seat Type
A child who is at least one year old,
and who fits within the child seat
maker's weight and height limits,
should be restrained in a forward-
facing, upright child seat.
Of the different seats available, we
recommend those that have a five-
point harness system as shown.
Protecting Infants and Small Children
Child Seat Placement
We strongly recommend placing a
forward-facing child seat in a back
seat, not the front.
If it is necessary to put a forward-
facing child seat in the front, move
the vehicle seat as far to the rear as
possible, be sure the child seat is
firmly secured to the vehicle, and the
child is properly strapped in the seat.
Placing a forward-facing child
seat in the front seat can result
in serious injury or death if the
front airbag inflates.
If you must place a forward-
facing child seat in front, move
the vehicle seat as far back as
possible, and properly restrain
the child.
