restraint system can be moved more than
1 inch (2.5 cm) from side to side), you
should install the child restraint system in a
rear seat, window-side seating position.
WARNING
. Even with advanced airbags, chil-
dren can be seriously injured by
the airbag. Place children in the
rear seat properly restrained at
all times. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable speed and
force and can injure or even kill
children, especially if they are not
restrained or improperly re-
strained. Because children are
lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from
deployment is greater.
For that reason, be sure to secure
ALL types of child restraint de-
vices (including forward facing
child seats) in the REAR seats at
all times. You should choose a
restraint device which is appro-
priate for the child’s age, height
and weight. According to acci-
dent statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the
rear seating positions than in the
front seating positions.
. Do not use lower anchorages
(bars) for a seat in the center
seating position unless a child
restraint system manufacturer’s
instructions permit and specify
using anchors spaced as far
apart as those in this vehicle.
. Do not connect two or more lower
hooks onto the same anchorage
(bar).
WARNING
. SINCE YOUR VEHICLE IS
EQUIPPED WITH A PASSEN-
GER’S SRS AIRBAG, NEVER IN-
STALL A CHILD SAFETY SEAT IN
THE FRONT PASSENGER’S
SEAT. DOING SO RISKS SER-
IOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO
THE CHILD BY PLACING THE
CHILD’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO
THE SRS AIRBAG.
. Do not allow children to lean their
heads or other body parts against
the door of the vehicle, or the
areas around the door. Deploy-
ment of the SRS side and curtain
airbags could impact the child
resulting in death or serious
injury.
. To secure the child restraint sys-
tem, be sure to comply with all
installation instructions provided
by the child restraint manufac-
turer. Not doing so could result in
death or serious injury to chil-
dren in a sudden stop or acci-
dent.

& Choosing a child restraint
system
S01AG02
Choose a child restraint system that is
appropriate for the child’s age and size
(weight and height) in order to provide the
child with proper protection. The child
restraint system should meet all applicable
requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards for the United States or
of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
for Canada. It can be identified by looking
for the label on the child restraint system or
the manufacturer’s statement of compli-
ance in the document attached to the
system.
Also it is important for you to make sure
that the child restraint system is compa-
tible with the vehicle in which it will be
used.

tems with ALR/ELR seatbelt

CAUTION
When installing a child restraint
system in the rear center seating
position, set both seatbacks to the
original position. Otherwise, the
child restraint system cannot be
securely restrained, which may re-
sult in death or serious injuries in
the event of sudden stop, sudden
steering maneuver or an accident.

dent, serious injury or death
could result.
