Child restraint system For small children and babies, the use of
a child seat or infant seat is strongly rec-
ommended and is required by law in
almost all states. This child seat or infant
seat should be of appropriate size for the
child and should be installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
Children riding in the car should sit on
the rear seat and must always be proper-
ly restrained to minimize the risk of injury
in an accident, sudden stop or sudden
maneuver. According to accident statis-
tics, children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seats than in the
front seat.
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not properly
secured. For small children and babies, a
child seat or infant seat must be used.
Before buying a particular child restraint
system, make sure it fits your car and
seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all
the instructions provided by the child
seat manufacturer when installing the
child restraint system.
WARNING
- Child
restraints
A child restraint system must beplaced in the rear seat. Never
install a child or infant seat on the
front passenger's seat.
Should an accident occur and
cause the passenger air bag to
deploy, it could severely injure or
kill an infant or child seated in the
front seat.
Since a safety belt or child restraint system can become very
hot if it is in a closed vehicle, be
sure to check the seat cover and
buckles before placing a child
there.

(Continued)
When the child restraint systemis not in use, store it in the trunk
or fasten it with a safety belt so
that it will not be thrown forward
in the case of a sudden stop or an
accident.
Children who are too large to be in a child restraint should sit in
the rear seat and be restrained
with the available lap/shoulder
belts.
When using the vehicles lap/shoulder safety belts, always
make sure that the shoulder belt
portion is positioned midway
over the shoulder, never across
the neck or behind the back. The
lap belt portion of the lap/shoul-
der belt must always be posi-
tioned as low as possible on the
child's hips and as snug as pos-
sible.
If the vehicle’s safety belt will not properly fit the child, you must
use an appropriate child restraint
or booster seat in the rear.

Driver's knee air bagThe driver's knee air bag is stored below
the steering wheel of the instrument
panel.
This works in conjunction with the frontal
airbags in a certain frontal impact colli-
sion to protect the knee of the driver.
Front passenger’s air bagThe front passenger’s air bag is stored in
the instrument panel, above the glove
box area.
Since you cannot anticipate which air
bags will deploy or from what direction,
never put any objects or ornaments on
the instrument panel.
Occupant classification systemThe occupant classification system
detects the presence of a passenger in
the front passenger's seat and will turn
off the front passenger's air bag under
certain conditions.
The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated occupant and determine
if the front passenger's air bag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not.
Only the front passenger front air bag is
controlled by the Occupant Classification
System.
