Your vehicle has a label on the sun visor that
says, "Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front." This is because the risk to the
rear-facing child is so great, if the airbag deploys.
Never put a child in a rear-facing child restraint
in the passenger's seat unless the passenger
airbag status indicator shows off and the airbag is
off. Here is why:
CAUTION:
{
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can
be seriously injured or killed if the right
front passenger's airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the rear facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inflating airbag. Be sure the airbag is off
before using a rear-facing child restraint
in the passenger's position.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Even though the passenger sensing
system is designed to turn off the
passenger's frontal airbag and side
impact airbag (if equipped) if the system
detects a rear-facing child restraint, no
system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an airbag will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off. We recommend
that rear-facing child restraints be
transported in vehicles with a rear seat
that will accommodate a rear-facing child
restraint, whenever possible.
If you need to secure a forward-facing child
restraint in the passenger's position, move the
seat as far back as it will go before securing the
forward-facing child restraint. See Manual Seats on
page 8 or Power Seats on page 8.
If your vehicle is a coupe or a convertible, there is
no top tether anchor in the passenger's position.
