CHILD SAFETY LOCKS
If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear door
interior handles are disabled.
To change the child lock settings:
1. Open the door to access the child safety
lock.
2. Insert the key blade from the Smart key
into the slot and rotate a quarter of a turn
to enable or disable the interior door
handle as required. The enable/disable
positions are shown in the illustration.
CHILD SEATS
For optimum safety, children should
travel in the rear of the vehicle at all
times; front passenger seat travel is
not recommended. However, if it is
essential that a child travels in the
front (not permitted in Australia), set
the vehicle seat fully rearward and
seat the child in an approved
forward-facing child seat. Do not use
a rear-facing child seat - an inflating
airbag could impact with the seat and
cause serious injury.
Do not use a forward facing child seat
until the child using it is above the
minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and
able to sit up unaided. Up to the age of
2, a child's spine and neck are not
sufficiently developed to avoid injury
in a frontal impact.
Do not allow a baby or infant to be
held or carried on the lap. The force of
a crash can increase effective body
weight by as much as thirty times,
making it impossible to hold onto the
child.
Children typically require the use of a
booster seat appropriate to their age
and size, thereby enabling the seat
belts to be properly fitted, reducing
the risk of injury in a crash. Children
could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly
secured in the vehicle.
Do not use a child seat that hooks over
the seatback. This type of seat cannot
be satisfactorily secured and is
unlikely to be safe for your child.
