Protecting Children
Placing a Child Seat
This page briefly summarizes
Honda' s recommendation s on where
to place a child seat in your car.
Airbags Pose Serious
Risks to Children
The passenger' s airbag inflates
with enough force to kill or
seriously injure an infant in a
rear-facing child seat.
A small child in a forward-facing
child seat is also at risk. If the
vehicle seat is too far forward,
or the child's head is thrown
forward during a collision, an
inflating airbag can kill or
seriously injure the child.
If a small child must ride in this
car, follow the instructions
provided in this section.
Driver and Passenger Safety
Passenger's Seat
Infants: Never in the passenger' s
seat, due to the passenger' s airbag
hazard.
Small children: Not recommended,
due to the passenger' s airbag
hazard. If a small child must ride
in this car, move the vehicle seat
to the rear-most position and
secure a front-facing child seat
with the seat belt, (see page 27).
