SAFETYSAFETY
• Never put a seat belt over yourself or a passenger and a child. During a crash, the belt would
likely pr
ess deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
•
Never let two children use

the same seat belt. Both children could be very seriously injured
in a crash.
•
Do not allow childr

en to operate the doors, windows, or seat adjustments.
•
Do not leave children in the

vehicle unattended, especially in hot weather when the inside
of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could also activate vehicle controls,
causing it to move unexpectedly.
Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck can result in
serious injury or death.
Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unused seat belt a
child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
WARNING
Children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained can be seriously injured or
killed in a crash.
Any child too small for a seat belt should be properly restrained in a child seat.
A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a booster seat if
necessary.
WARNING
n Protecting Infants
An infant must be properly r
estrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the infant
reaches the seat maker’s weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant is at least one
year old. Because rear-facing child seats should not be used in this vehicle, you should
never carry an infant in this vehicle.
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the front seat can result in serious injury or
death during a crash.
Never install a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle.
