HONDA 2006 Accord Sedan - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 41)

A child who is at least 1 year old, and
who fits within the child seat maker’s
weight and height limits, should be
restrained in a forward-facing,
upright child seat.
Of the different seats available, we
recommend those that have a five-
point harness system as shown.
We strongly recommend placing a
forward-facing child seat in a back
seat, not the front.
If the vehicle seat is too
far forward, or the child’s head is
thrown forward during a collision, an
inflating airbag can strike the child
with enough force to cause very
serious or fatal injuries.
Even with advanced front airbags,
which can automatically turn the
passenger’s front airbag off (see
page
), a back seat is the safest
place for a small child.
We also recommend that a small
child use the child seat until the child
reaches the weight or height limit
for the seat.
