For almost all properly installed rear facing child re-
straints, the PAD indicator light (If Equipped) will be
illuminated indicating that the front passenger airbag is
turned off and will not inflate. If the PAD indicator light
is not illuminated, DO NOT assume the air bag is turned
off and move the child restraint to the second row of
seats. A deploying passenger air bag can cause death or
serious injury to a child in a rear facing infant seat.

NOTE:

Even though this vehicle is equipped with an

occupant classification system, children 12 years and
under should always ride buckled up in a rear seat in an
appropriate child restraint (see section on child re-
straints).
