Installing a child restraint on a
front passenger seat is forbid-den.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat.
If the airbag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraint in the front passenger
seat either. If the front passenger
airbag inflates, it would cause seri-
ous or fatal injuries to the improperly
positioned or improperly restrainedchild.
WARNING
Never put child restraint in the front passenger seat. If the
front passenger airbag
inflates, it would cause seri-ous or fatal injuries.
When children are seated in the rear outboard seats in
which curtain airbags are
equipped, be sure to put the
child restraint system as far
away from the door side as
possible, and secure the child
restraint system to be lockedin position.
Inflation of side or curtain
airbag (if equipped) could
cause serious injury or death
due to the expansion impact.WARNING

airbag related parts in steeringwheel and/or instrument panel
and/or in both sides of the roof
rails above the front and rear
doors are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch the airbag

WARNING
No one should be allowed to
occupy the trunk of the vehicle
at any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
severe injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventilation,
exhaust fumes and rapid heat
build-up, or because of expo-sure to cold weather conditions.
The trunk is also a highly dan-
gerous location in the event of a
crash because it is not a pro-
tected occupant space but
merely a part of the vehicle’s
crush zone.CAUTION
We recommend that cars be kept locked and keys be kept out of the reach of children, andthat parents teach their childrenabout the dangers of playing intrunks.
