1-7. Safety information

Before driving

CAUTION

■

Child restraint precautions

●

Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by the

child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properly secured. If it is not

secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child in the event of a

sudden stop, sudden swerve or an accident.

■

When children are in the vehicle

Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted

around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries that could

result in death.

If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used to cut

the belt.

■

When the child restraint system is not in use

●

Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if it is not in use.

Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger compartment.

●

If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the vehicle or

store it securely in the luggage compartment. This will prevent it from injuring

passengers in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or accident.
