(B)CONVERTIBLE SEAT INSTALLATION A convertible seat is used in forwardfacing and rear-facing position depending on the child's age and size. When installing, follow the manufacturer's instruction about the applicable child's age and size as well as direction for installing of a child restraint system. ! CAUTION S Never put a rear-facing child restraint system in the rear seat because the force of the rapid inflation of the passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to the child. S A forward-facing child restraing system should be put on the front seat only when it is unavoidable. Always move the seat as far back as possible, because the force of a deploying airbag could cause death or serious injury to the child. 53
