Never put a child in a rear-facing child restraint in the passenger's seat unless the passenger airbag status indicator shows off and the airbag is off. Here is why: If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the passenger airbag status indicator, it means that the passenger's frontal airbag and side impact airbag (if equipped) are enabled (may inflate). {CAUTION: Even though the passenger sensing system is designed to turn off the passenger's frontal airbag and side impact airbag (if equipped) if the system detects a rear-facing child restraint, no system is fail-safe, and no one can guarantee that an airbag will not deploy under some unusual circumstance, even though it is turned off. We recommend that rear-facing child restraints be transported in vehicles with a rear seat that will accommodate a rear-facing child restraint, whenever possible. {CAUTION: If the on indicator comes on when you have a rear-facing child restraint installed in the passenger's seat, it means that the passenger sensing system has not turned off the passenger's frontal airbag and side impact airbag (if equipped). A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the passenger's airbag inflates. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating airbag. Do not use a rear-facing child restraint in the passenger's seat if the airbag is turned on. 191
