Placing a Child Seat
This page briefly summarizes
Honda's recommendations on where
to place rear-facing and forward-
facing child seats in your vehicle.
Front Passenger's Seat
Infants: Never in the front seat,
due to the passenger's airbag
hazard.
Small children: Not
recommended, due to the
passenger's airbag hazard. If a
small child must ride in front,
move the vehicle seat to the
rear-most position and secure a
front-facing child seat with the
seat belt (see page 31 ).
Back Seats
Infants: Recommended positions.
Properly secure a rear-facing child
seat (see page 27 ).
Small children: Recommended
positions. Properly secure a
front-facing child seat (see page
31 ).
Driver and Passenger Safety
Airbags Pose Serious
Risks to Children
The passenger's airbag inflates
with enough force to kill or
seriously injure an infant in a
rear-facing child seat.
A small child in a forward-
facing child seat is also at risk.
If the vehicle seat is too far
forward, or the child's head is
thrown forward during a
collision, an inflating airbag can
kill or seriously injure the child.
If a small child must ride in the
front, follow the instructions
provided in this section.
