Protecting 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 passenger's front airbag
hazards and child safety, your vehicle has warning
labels on the dashboard and on the front visors.
Please read and follow the instructions on these
labels.
Safety Labels Î P.62
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 either the lap
belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or the lower anchors of the LATCH system.
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.
WARNING
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.
