outboard rear occupants should
sit in an upright position with the
seat belts properly fastened.
Importantly, children should sit in
a proper child restraint system in
the rear seat.
䳜 When children are seated in the
rear outboard seats, they must
be seated in the proper child
restraint system. Make sure to
position the child restraint sys

side as possible, and secure the
child restraint system in a locked
position.
䳜 Do not allow the passengers to
lean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects
between the doors and passen
-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
䳜 Never try to open or repair any
components of the side curtain air
bag system. If necessary, have
the system serviced by a profes

the vehicle occupants in an accident.
