seat to use if one is needed, and
important precautions for a child
who must sit in front.

Allowing a larger child age 12 or
under to sit in front can result in
injury or death if the passenger’s
front airbag inflates.

If a larger child must ride in front,
move the vehicle seat as far
back as possible, use a booster
seat if needed, have the child
sit up properly and wear the
seat belt properly.
