WARNING
. Before installing a child restraint system, be sure to confirm that the seatback is securely locked into place. Otherwise, in an accident, serious injury or death could result.
. Do not leave children in the car unattended. High interior temperatures may cause heat stroke and dehydration that result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
Never let a passenger hold a child on their lap or in their arms while the vehicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child( or infant) from injury in a collision, because the child will be caught between the passenger and objects inside the vehicle. Additionally, if a passenger holds a child on their lap or in their arms in the front seat, they expose the child to another serious danger. Since the SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed and force, the child could be injured or even killed.
WARNING
Children should be properly restrained at all times when in the vehicle. Never allow a child to stand or kneel on any seat. An unrestrained child will be thrown forward during a sudden stop or in an accident and can be injured seriously. Additionally, a child who stands or kneels on or in front of the front seat is exposed to another serious danger. Since the SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed and force, the child could be injured or even killed.
