Acura 2005 NSX - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 28)

During a crash, the
belt could press deep into the child
and cause serious or fatal injuries.
If they do, they
could be very seriously injured in a
crash.
Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition
switch, and open the trunk, which
can lead to accidental injury or
death.
If you are not wearing a seat
belt in crash, you could be thrown
forward and crush the child
against the dashboard. If you are
wearing a seat belt, the child can
be torn from your arms and be
seriously hurt or killed.
Leaving children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and Canadian provinces,
and can be very hazardous.
For example, a small child left in a
vehicle on a hot day can die from
heatstroke. A child left alone with
the key in the ignition switch can
accidentally set the vehicle in
motion, possibly injuring
themselves or others.
Children who play in vehicles can
accidentally get trapped inside.
Teach your children not to play in
or around vehicles. Know how to
operate the emergency trunk
opener and decide if your children
should be shown how to use this
feature (see page
). 59
Additional Saf ety Precautions
Never put a seat belt over yourself
and a child.
Never let two children use the
same seat belt.
Keep vehicle keys and remote
transmitters out of the reach of
children.
Never hold a small child on your
lap.
Do not leave children alone in a
vehicle.
Lock both doors and the trunk
when your vehicle is not in use.
