Safe Driving
Child Safety
Protecting Child Passengers
Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are
either unrestrained or not properly res trained. In fact, vehicle crashes are the
number one cause of death of children ages 12 and under.
To reduce the number of child deaths and in juries, every state, Canadian province
and territory requires that children be prope rly restrained when they ride in a vehicle.
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we recommend that you do not
carry a child, age 12 or under, as a passenger. This is because:
• An inflating front or side ai rbag can injure or kill a child sitting in the passenger’s
seat.
• A child in the passenger’s seat is more likel y to interfere with the driver’s ability to
safely control the vehicle.
• Statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are safer when they are properly
restrained in a rear seat. Because this vehicle does not have a rear seat, we
recommend that you do not carry a child age 12 or under in this vehicle.1 Protecting Child Passengers
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
and Transport Canada reco mmend that all children
ages 12 and under be properl y restrained in a rear
seat. Some states or provin ces/territories have laws
restricting where ch ildren may ride.
Never put a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle.
3WARNING
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.

Safe Driving
• Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt correctly must be restrained in an
approved child seat that is properly secured to the vehicle using the lap belt
portion of the lap/shoulder belt.
• Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them in the
event of a collision.
• Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt would
likely press 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 children 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.1Protecting Child Passengers
To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle
and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
To remind you of the pa ssenger’s front airbag
hazards and child safety, your vehicle has warning
labels on the dashboard (U.S. models) and on the
front visors. Please read and follow the instructions
on these labels. 2 Safety Labels P. 68
3WARNING
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.

Safety of Infants and Small Children
An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the
infant reaches the seat manufacturer’s weig ht 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.
■Protecting Infants1 Protecting Infants
Rear-facing child seats should never be installed in a
forward facing position.
3WARNING
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the
passenger’s seat can result in serious injury
or death during a crash.

uuChild Safety uSafety of Infants and Small Children
Safe DrivingSince this vehicle does not have a back seat, we recommend that you do not carry a
child, age 12 or under, as a passenger.
This is because placing a fo rward-facing child seat in the passenger’s seat can be
hazardous, even with advanced front airbags that automatically turn the
passenger’s front airbag off.
If you choose to ignore our warnings and transport a small child in this vehicle, be
sure to move the passenger seat as far to the rear as possible, and follow the
instructions and guidelines in the following pages.
■Protecting Smaller Children1 Protecting Smaller Children
Educate yourself about th e laws and regulations
regarding child seat use wh ere you are driving, and
follow the child seat manufacturer’s instructions.
A child seat must be secure d to the vehicle with the
lap part of a lap/shoulder be lt. A child whose seat is
not properly secured to the vehicle can be
endangered in a crash.
3WARNING
Placing a forward-facing child seat in the
passenger’s seat can result in serious injury
or death if the fron t airbag inflates.
If you must place a forward-facing child
seat in passenger’s seat, move the vehicle
seat as far back as possible, and properly
restrain the child.

Safety of Larger Children
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we recommend that you do not
carry a child age 12 or under as a pass enger. This is because children who
have outgrown child seats are also at ri sk of being injured or killed by an
inflating passenger’s front airbag. If a larger child must ride in this vehicle, the
information in the following pages provides guidelines to help you decide when a
given child may ride in this vehicle, and how to properly protect the child.
When a child is too big for a child seat, secu re the child in the passenger’s seat using
the lap/shoulder seat belt. Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then
answer the following questions.
■Checklist
• Do the child’s knees bend comfortably over
the edge of the seat?
• Does the shoulder belt cross between the
child’s neck and arm?
• Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as
possible, touching the child’s thighs?
• Will the child be able to stay seated like this
for the whole trip?
If you answer yes to all these questions, th e child is ready to wear the lap/shoulder
seat belt correctly. If you answer no to any question, the child needs to ride on a
booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat.

possible, have the child sit up properly and
wear the seat belt properly, using a booster
