GETTING STARTED WARNING! (Continued) • Being too close to the Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely injured or killed. • Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you. • After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately. CHILD RESTRAINTS • Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats rather than in the front. • Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it. Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System • Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren. • Four-Door models: The rear outboard seating positions have lower anchors, and all three rear seating positions have top tether anchors. Child seats with fixed lower attachments must be installed in the outboard positions only. Child seats with flexible lower attachments can be used in all three seating positions. Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower anchorage. Four-Door Model 13
