the front passenger seat will be serious-

passenger front air bag inflates in a

passenger seat, move the seat as far
back as possible, use the proper child
restraint recommended for the age, size
and weight of the child, and secure child
restraint with the vehicle’s seat belt ac-

If you must install a rear-facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat be-

so, make sure that the59
indicator lamp is illuminated, indicating
that the front passenger front air bag is
deactivated. Should the
59
indicator lamp not illu-
minate or go out while the restraint is in-
stalled, please check installation.
Periodically check the59
indicator lamp while driving to make
sure the lamp is illuminated.
