Do not install a child restraint on the front passenger's seat


ODEPV032028

Never place a rear-facing child restraint in the front passenger's seat.

If the airbag deploys, it would impact the rear-facing child restraint, causing serious or fatal injury.

In addition, do not place front-facing child restraints in the front passenger's seat. If the front passenger airbag inflates, it could cause serious or fatal injuries to the child.

WARNING

Airbag deployment

When children are seated in the rear outboard seats of a vehicle equipped with side and/or curtain airbags, install the CRS as far away from the door side as possible. Inflation of the side and/or curtain airbags could impact the child.

Seating and safety restraints
For the safety of the driver and vehicle passengers, you should become familiar with the vehicle's safety features.
- Important safety precautions
  You will find many safety precautions and recommendations throughout this section, and throughout this manual.
- Seats
- Seat belts
  Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body and should be worn with the lap belt part of the belt low and snug on the hips and the shoulder belt over the shoulder and across the chest.
- Child Restraint System (CRS)
  Infants and younger children must be restrained in the rear with an appropriate rear-facing or forward-facing Child Restraint System (CRS) that has first been properly secured to the rear seat of the vehicle.
- Airbag — Advanced Supplemental Restraint System
  - Precautions
  - How does the airbag system operate?
    - Do not install a child restraint on the front passenger's seat
  - Airbag warning light
    The purpose of airbag warning light in your instrument panel is to alert you of a potential problem with your airbag system, which could include your side and/or curtain airbags used for rollover protection.
  - Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components and functions
  - Occupant Detection System (ODS)
    Your vehicle is equipped with an ODS in the front passenger's seat.
  - Driver's and passenger's front airbag
    Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced supplemental restraint (air bag) system and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver and passenger seating position.
  - Side airbag
    Your vehicle is equipped with a side airbag in each front and rear seat.
  - Curtain airbag
    Curtain airbags are located along both sides of the roof rails above the front and rear doors.
  - Airbag collision sensors
    The airbag collision sensors are located in the following positions.
  - Why didn't my airbag go off in a collision? (Inflation and non-inflation conditions of the airbag)
    There are many types of accidents in which the airbag would not be expected to provide additional protection.
  - Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) care
    The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you can safely service by yourself.
  - Recap of important safety precautions
  - Adding equipment to or modifying your air bag-equipped vehicle
    If you modify your vehicle by changing your vehicle's frame, bumper system, front end or side sheet metal or ride height, this may affect the operation of your vehicle's airbag system.
  - Airbag warning label
    Airbag warning labels, some required by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA, U.S. only), are attached to the sun visor to alert the driver and passengers of potential risks of the air bag system.
