According to accident statistics, children are
safer when
properly restrained in the rear
seating positions than in the front seating
positions. Allowing a child to ride in a front
seating position could lead to serious injury and
death.
Never place a Rear-Facing Car Seat in the front
passenger seat.
Such seats can be caught by a
deploying air bag and ung rearward. They are
incompatible with the front seat air bag. Placing
a Rear-Facing Car Seat in your Grenadier’s front
seat could lead to serious injury and death.
Make sure that all Rear-Facing and Forward-
Facing Car
Seats are secured to your Grenadier.
An unsecured or poorly secured Car Seat can
become a projectile. An unsecured or poorly
secured Car Seat cannot properly secure its
occupant. Failure to heed this warning could
result in serious injury and death.
Do not exceed the load limits of the LATCH
(ISOFIX) or
Tethers. Doing so could result in
serious injury and death.
Make sure that your Grenadier’s seat belts are
not routed
over the neck or abdomen. Make
sure that the shoulder belt is routed over the
collar bone and chest and under the arm
closest to the buckle. Make sure that the lap
belt is routed low and tight across the hips, and
not the abdomen. Failure to heed these
warnings could result in serious injury and
death.
There is no anti-pinch feature on the rear
windows. It
will keep moving and applying
pressure even if an object or body part (e.g.,
nger, hand, head, neck) is in the way. Make
sure that the window opening is clear before
rolling up a rear window. Never allow children
to remain in your Grenadier unattended with
the ignition in ACC (Accessory) or ON. Always
supervise children’s use of windows.
Make sure that the child lock is on when a child
is positioned
next to or with access to a rear
side door. (See Doors and Windows.)
AIR BAGS
Air bag system overview
Your Grenadier
is equipped with an air bag and lap/shoulder belt
at both front seating positions. The air bag is a supplemental
restraint at those seating positions. All occupants must always
wear their seat belts whether or not an air bag is also provided at
their seating positions to minimize the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash.
All occupants must be properly positioned as described in the Seat
and Children in Car Seats and Booster Sections above.
