1-52 Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags

! Conditions in which front passen-

ger’s SRS frontal airbag is not

The front passenger ’s SRS frontal airbag

will not be activated when any of the

following conditions are met regarding the

front passenger’s seat:

. The seat is empty.

. The seat is equipped with a rearward

facing child restraint system and an infant

is restrained with it. (See WARNING that

follows.)

. The seat is equipped with a forward

facing child restraint system and a small

child is restrained with it. (See WARNING

that follows.)

. The seat is equipped with a booster

seat and a small child is in the booster

seat. (See WARNING that follows.)

. The seat is relieved of the occupant

load for a time exceeding the predeter-

mined monitoring time period.

(See WARNING that follows.) or by a

WARNING

NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FA-

CING CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT

PASSENGER’S SEAT EVEN IF THE

FRONT PASSENGER’S SRS FRON-

TAL AIRBAG IS DEACTIVATED. Be

sure to install it in one of the rear

seating positions recommended in

this Owner’s Manual in a correct

manner. Also, it is strongly recom-

mended that any forward facing

child seat or booster seat be in-

stalled in one of the rear seating

positions recommended in this

Owner ’s Manual, and that even

children who have outgrown a child

restraint system be also seated in a

REAR seat. This is because children

sitting in the front passenger’s seat

may be killed or severely injured

should the front passenger’s SRS

frontal airbag deploy. REAR seats

are the safest place for children.

When the front passenger’s seat is occu-

pied by a child, observe the following

precautions. Failure to do so may increase

the load on the front passenger’s seat,

activating the front passenger’sSRS

frontal airbag even though that seat is

occupied by a child.

. Do not place any article on the seat

other than the child occupant and a child

restraint system.

. Do not place more than one child on

the seat.

. Do not install any accessory such as a

table or TV onto the seatback.

. Do not store a heavy load in the

seatback pocket.

. Do not allow the rear/second-row seat

occupant to place his/her hands or legs on

the front passenger’s seatback, or allow

him/her to pull the seatback.

! If the front passenger’s frontal air-

bag ON indicator illuminates and the

OFF indicator turns off even when

an infant or a small child is in a child

restraint system (including booster

seat)

Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”

position if the front passenger’s frontal

airbag ON indicator illuminates and the

OFF indicator turns off even when an

infant or a small child is in a child restraint

system (including booster seat). Remove

the child restraint system from the seat. By

referring to the child restraint manufac-

turer’s recommendations as well as the

child restraint system installation proce-

dures in the “Child restraint systems”

section in this chapter, correctly install
