Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position In addition, your vehicle may have the passenger sensing system. The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off the right front passenger's frontal air bag when an infant in a rear-facing infant seat or a small child in a forward-facing child restraint or booster seat is detected. See Passenger Sensing System on page 1-82 and Passenger Air Bag Status Indicator on page 3-42 for more information on this including important safety information. A label on your sun visor says, "Never put a rear-facing child seat in the front." This is because the risk to the rear-facing child is so great, if the air bag deploys. {CAUTION: Your vehicle has a right front passenger air bag. A rear seat is a safer place to secure a forward-facing child restraint. See Where to Put the Restraint on page 1-54. A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the right front passenger's air bag inflates. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating air bag. CAUTION: (Continued) 1-68
