Preparations for safe driving with children in the vehicle
Riding with children
If a child which is not large enough to correctly wear a seat belt intended for adults
is to ride in the vehicle, use a child restraint system. Child restraint systems are
designed to keep children safe.
To ensure safety, observe the following when children are in the vehicle.
● Make sure that children always wear a seat belt.
If a child is not wearing a seat belt, in a collision, they may collide with a window,
other passenger, or the interior of the vehicle. Also, if a child is riding on the
lap of another passenger, in a collision, they may collide with a window, other
passenger, or the interior of the vehicle.
●
Seat children in the rear seats.
It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid accidental contact
with the driver's controls.
●
Do not allow children to operate equipment such as the doors, windows, etc.
Do not let children operate equipment such as the doors, power windows, seats,
etc. as a part of their body may become pinched.
To prevent children from opening and closing the doors and power windows, use
the child-protector locks and window lock switch.
●
Never use a rear-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger seat when the airbag
manual on-off switch is on.
The force of the rapid inflation of the front
passenger airbag can cause death or serious
injury to children in the event of an accident.
● There is a label(s) on the passenger side sun visor, indicating it is forbidden to
attach a rear-facing child restraint system to the front passenger seat.
