& General Precautions regarding SRS Airbag System and Children s01ah14
|
WARNING |
Seat children in the rear seat properly restrained at all times . The SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed and force and can injure or even kill children , especially if they are not restrained or improperly restrained . Because children are lighter and weaker than adults , their risk of being injured from deployment is greater .
For that reason , we strongly recommend that ALL children ( including those in child restraint systems ) sit in the REAR seat properly restrained at all times in a child restraint system or in a seatbelt , whichever is appropriate for the child ’ s age , height and weight .
Secure ALL types of child restraint systems ( including forward facing child restraint systems ) in the REAR seats at all times .
According to accident statistics , children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating positions .

WARNING
NEVER INSTALL A CHILD RE- STRAINT SYSTEM 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 .
