Protecting Children
Placing a Child Seat
This page briefly summarizes Acura's
recommendations on where to place
a child seat in your car.
Passenger's Seat
Infants: Never in the passenger's
seat, due to the passenger's airbag
hazard.
Small children: Not recommended,
due to the passenger's airbag
hazard. If a small child must ride
in this car, move the vehicle seat
to the rear-most position and
secure a front-facing child seat
with the seat belt, (see page 27).
Driver and Passenger Safety
Airbags Pose Serious
Risks to Children
The passenger's airbag inflates
with enough force to kill or
seriously injure an infant in a
rear-facing child seat.
A small child in a forward-facing
child seat is also at risk. If the
vehicle seat is too far forward,
or the child's head is thrown
forward during a collision, an
inflating airbag can kill or
seriously injure the child.
If a small child must ride in this
car, follow the instructions
provided in this section.
