    WARNING

    ■ When installing a child restraint system For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system on a rear seat. If the rear seat cannot be used, the front seat may be used provided the manual airbag on/off switch is set to "OFF".

    If the manual airbag on/off switch is left on, the strong impact caused by the airbag deploying (inflating) could cause serious or fatal injury.

    ■ When no child restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat Make sure the manual airbag on/off switch is set to "ON".

    If the system is left deactivated, the airbag may not deploy in a collision, causing serious or fatal injury.
