Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags

dren are safer when properly restrained in the

rear seating positions than in the front seating

positions.

SINCE YOUR VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A

PASSENGER’S SRS AIRBAG, DO NOT IN-

STALL A REARWARD FACING CHILD SAFETY

SEAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER’S SEAT.

DOING SO RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH

TO THE CHILD BY PLACING THE CHILD’S

HEAD TOO CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.

Choosing a child restraint system

Choose a child restraint system that is appropriate for

the child’s age and size (weight and height) in order to

provide the child with proper protection. The child re-

straint system should meet all applicable requirements

of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for United

States or Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for

Canada. It can be identified by locking for the label on

the child restraint system or the manufacture’s state-

ment of compliance in the document attached to the

HG1043BA

UGS507AA
