A toddler or child is usually too large for an in­
fant restraint if it is more than one year old and
weighs more than 20 lbs (9 kg) .
T oddlers and children who are o lder than one
year up to about 4 years old and weigh more than 20 lbs (9 kg) up to 40 lbs (18 kg) must always be
properly restrained in a ch ild safety seat cert ified
for the ir s ize and weight ¢
fig. 172 and
¢ fig. 173 .
The airbag on the passenger side makes the front
seat a potentially dangerous place for a child to
ride . The front seat is not the safest place for a
chi ld in a fo rward-facing chi ld safety seat. It is a
ve ry dangero us p lace for an infant or a la rger
ch ild in a rearward -facing seat.
_.6 WARNING
-Not using a ch ild safety seat, using the wrong
child safety seat or improper ly installing a
child restraint increases the risk of serious
personal injury and death in a collis ion or oth­
er emergency situation.
- Children on the front seat of any car, even
with Advanced Airbags, can be seriously in­
jured or even killed when an a irbag inflates.
A ch ild in a rearward-facing child safety seat
installed on the front passenger seat will be
seriously injured and can be killed if the
front airbag inflates - even with an Ad­
vanced Airbag System.
- T he inflating a irbag w ill hit the child safety
seat or infant carrier with great force and
will smash the ch ild safety seat and chi ld
against the backrest, center arm rest, door

_& WARNING
If exceptional c ircumstances req uire the use
of a forward -facing chi ld restraint on the
front passenger's seat, the child's safety and
well-being req uire that the following special
precautions be taken:
- Make sure the forward-fac ing seat has been
des igned and certified by its manufacturer
for use on a front seat with a passenger
front and side airbag.
-Always follow the manufacturer's instruc­ tions provided with the child safety seat or infant carrier .
- Always move the front passenger seat into
the rearmost pos ition of the passenger
seat's fore and aft adjustment range, and as
far away from the airbag as possible before installing the ch ild rest raint .
- Always make sure that nothing prevents the
front passenger's seat from being moved to
the rea rmost pos ition in its fore and aft ad­
justment range.
- Always make sure the backrest is in an up­
right position.
- Never p lace or use any electr ica l device
(such as a laptop, CD player, e lectron ic
games device, power inve rter or sea t hea ter
for child seats) on the front passenger seat
if the device is connected to the 12-volt
socket or the cigarette lighter socket. .,,.

fastened snugly and as low as possible around
the pelvis. Never let the lap belt portion of the
safety belt pass over the child's stomach or abdo ­
men .
I n a crash, a irbags must inflate within a blink of
an eye and with considerable force. In order to do its job, the airbag needs room to inflate so that it
will be there to protect the occupant as the occu ­
pant moves forward into the a irbag.
A vehicle occupant who is out of position and too
close to the airbag gets in the way of an inflating
airbag. When an occupant is too close, he or she
will be struck v iolently and will receive ser ious or
possibly even fatal injury .
In order for the airbag to offer protection, it is important that all vehicle occupants, especially
any children, who must be in the front seat be­
cause of exceptional circumstances, be properly restrained and as far away from the airbag as
possible . By keep ing room between the child's
body and the front of the passenger compart­
ment, the airbag can inflate comp letely and pro ­
vide supp lemental prote ct ion in certain frontal
collisions .
A WARNING
Not using a booster seat, us ing the booster
seat improperly, incorrectly insta lling a boos­
ter seat or using the vehicle safety belt im­ properly increases the risk of serious personal
injury and death in a collision or other emer­
gency situat ion. To help reduce the risk of se­
r ious personal inju ry and/or death:
- The shoulder belt must lie as close to the
center of the child 's collar bone as possible
and must lie flat and snug on the uppe r
body .
It must neve r lie across the th roat or
neck. The lap belt must lie across the pelv is
and never across the stomach or abdomen.
Make sure that the belt lies flat and snug .
Pull on the belt to tighten if necessary.
- Failure to proper ly route safety belts over a
child's body will cause severe injuries in an
acc ident or other emergency situation
9 page 189 .
Ch ild safety
- The rear side of the ch ild safety seat should
be positioned as close as possible to the
backrest on the veh icle seat.
- Ch ildren on the front seat of any car, even
with Advanced Airbags, can be seriously in­
jured or even k illed when an airbag inflates.
- Never let a chi ld stand or kneel on any seat,
for example the front seat.
- Never let a chi ld r ide in the cargo area of
your veh icle.
- Always remember that a chi ld leaning for­
ward, sitt ing sideways or o ut of pos ition in
any way du ring an accident can be struck by
a dep loying airbag. Th is w ill resu lt in serious
pe rsonal injury or death.
- If you must install a booster seat on the
front passenger seat because of exceptiona l
circumstances the
