Protecting Children

Placing a Child Seat

This page briefly summarizes

Honda's recommendations on where

to place rear-facing and forward-

facing child seats in your car.

Front Passenger's Seat

Infants: Never in the front seat, due

to the front airbag hazard.

Small children: Not recommended,

due to the front airbag hazard. If a

small child must ride in front,

move the vehicle seat to the rear-

most position and secure a front-

facing child seat with the seat belt.

(see page

32

).

Back Seats

Infants: Recommended positions.

Properly secure a rear-facing

child seat (see page

28

).

Small children: Recommended

positions. Properly secure a front-

facing child seat (see page

32

).

Driver and Passenger Safety

CONTINUED

Airbags Pose Serious

Risks to Children

The passenger's front airbag

inflates with enough force to kill

or seriously injure an infant in a

rear-facing child seat.

A small child in a forward-facing

child seat is also at risk. If the

vehicle seat is too far forward,

or the child's head is thrown

forward during a collision, an

inflating front airbag can kill or

seriously injure the child.

If a small child must ride in the

front, follow the instructions

provided in this section.
