This occurs when the passenger’s weight sensors detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant or small child, on the seat.
Your vehicle is not recommended for child passengers. Never put a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle. If you decided to disregard our recommendations and transport a small child, they should be properly restrained.

Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.
If the passenger seat is empty, the passenger's front airbag will not deploy and the indicator will not come on.

1Passenger Airbag Off Indicator
If the indicator comes on with no passenger and no objects on the passenger’s seat, or with an adult riding there, something may be interfering with the weight sensors. Such as: • An object hanging on the seat. • An object pressing the rear of the seat-back. • The seat or seat-back is forced back against cargo
on the rear trays or floor behind it.
• An object placed under the passenger's seat.
If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible.
The passenger airbag off indicator may come on and goes off repeatedly if the total weight on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.

Airbag Care You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle inspected by a dealer in the following situations:
■ When the airbags have deployed If an airbag has inflated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced. Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be replaced.
■ When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision Even if the airbags did not inflate, have your dealer inspect the following: the driver’s seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, seat belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash.
■ Do not remove or modify a front seat without consulting a dealer This would likely disable the driver's seat position sensor or the passenger’s weight sensors. If it is necessary to remove or modify a seat to accommodate a person with disabilities, contact a Honda dealer, or for U.S. vehicles, American Honda Automobile Customer Service at 800-999-1009 and for Canadian vehicles, Honda Canada Customer Relations at 888-9-HONDA-9.

Child Safety
Protecting Child Passengers Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are either unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle accidents are the number one cause of death of children age 12 and under.
To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, every state, Canadian province and territory requires that children be properly restrained when they ride in a vehicle.
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, Honda recommends that you do not carry a child, age 12 or under, as a passenger. This is because:
• An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting in the passenger’s
seat.
• A child in the passenger’s seat is more likely to interfere with the driver’s ability to
safely control the vehicle.
• Statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are safer when they are properly
restrained in a rear seat. Because this vehicle does not have a rear seat, we recommend that you do not carry a child aged 12 or under in this vehicle.
1Protecting Child Passengers
3WARNING
Children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained can be seriously injured or killed in a crash.
Any child too small for a seat belt should be properly restrained in a child seat. A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a booster seat if necessary.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada recommend that all children age 12 and under be properly restrained in a rear seat. Some states or provinces/ territories have laws restricting where children may ride.
Never put a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle.

uuChild SafetyuProtecting Child Passengers
• Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt correctly must be restrained in an
1Protecting Child Passengers
approved child seat that is properly secured to the vehicle using the lap belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt.
• Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them in the
event of a collision.
• Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt would
likely press deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
• Never let two children use the same seat belt. Both children could be very
seriously injured in a crash.
• Do not allow children to operate the doors, windows or seat adjustments.
• Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended, especially in hot weather when the inside of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could also activate vehicle controls causing it to move unexpectedly.
3WARNING
Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck can result in serious injury or death.
Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unused seat belt a child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
To remind you of the passenger's front airbag hazards and child safety, your vehicle has warning labels on the dashboard (U.S. models) and on the front visors. Please read and follow the instructions on these labels.

Safety of Infants and Small Children ■ Protecting Infants An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the infant reaches the seat maker's weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant is at least one year old. Because rear-facing child seats should not be used in this vehicle, you should never carry an infant in this vehicle.
1Protecting Infants
3WARNING
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the passenger’s seat can result in serious injury or death during a crash.
Never install a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle.
Rear-facing child seats should never be installed in a forward facing position.

■ Protecting Smaller Children Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, Honda recommends that you do not carry a child, age 12 or under, as a passenger.
This is because placing a forward-facing child seat in the passenger’s seat can be hazardous, even with advanced front airbags that automatically turn the passenger’s front airbag off.
If you choose to ignore our warnings and transport a small child in this vehicle, be sure to move the passenger seat as far to the rear as possible, and follow the instructions and guidelines in the following pages.
1Protecting Smaller Children
3WARNING
Placing a forward-facing child seat in the passenger’s seat can result in serious injury or death if the front airbag inflates.
If you must place a forward-facing child seat in the passenger’s seat, move the vehicle seat as far back as possible, and properly restrain the child.
Educate yourself about the laws and regulations regarding child seat use where you are driving, and follow the child seat manufacturer's instructions.
All child seats must be secured to the vehicle with the lap part of a lap/shoulder belt. A child whose seat is not properly secured to the vehicle can be endangered in a crash.
■ Selecting a Forward-facing Child Seat ■ Important consideration when selecting a child seat Make sure the child seat meets the following three requirements: • The child seat is the correct type and size for the child. • The child seat is the correct type for the seating position. • The child seat is compliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

■ Installing a Child Seat
1. Move the passenger seat to the rearmost
position.
2. Place the child seat on the passenger seat. 3. Route the seat belt through the child seat according to the seat maker's instructions, and insert the latch plate into the buckle. u Insert the latch plate fully until it clicks.
4. Slowly pull the shoulder part of the belt all the way out until it stops. This activates the lockable retractor.
5. Let the seat belt completely wind up into
the retractor, then try to pull it out to make sure the retractor is locked. u If you are able to pull the shoulder belt
out, the lockable retractor is not activated. Pull the seat belt all the way out, and repeat steps 3 – 5.
6. Grab the shoulder part of the seat belt near the buckle, and pull up to remove any slack from the lap part of the belt. u When doing this, place your weight on the child seat and push it into the vehicle seat.

12 CR-Z-31SZT610.book 61 ページ ２０１１年８月２９日 月曜日 午後８時８分
7. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by
rocking it forward and back and side to side; little movement should be felt.
uuChild SafetyuSafety of Infants and Small Children
1Installing a Child Seat
A child seat that is not properly secured will not adequately protect a child in a crash and may cause injury to the child or another vehicle occupant.
To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
■ Adding Security with a Tether
Tether Anchorage Point
A tether anchorage point is provided behind the passenger seat. A child seat with a tether can be installed, so long as the base of the child seat is secured using a seat belt.
1Adding Security with a Tether
Since a tether can provide additional security to the lap/shoulder seat belt installation, we recommend using a tether whenever one is available.
1. Route the tether strap through the head restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not twisted.
2. Secure the tether strap hook onto the
anchor.
3. Tighten the tether strap as instructed by the
child seat manufacturer.

1Safety of Larger Children
3WARNING
Allowing a child age 12 or under to sit in the vehicle can result in injury or death if the passenger's front airbag inflates.
If a larger child must ride in the vehicle, move the vehicle seat as far to the rear as possible, have the child sit up properly and wear the seat belt properly, using a booster seat if needed.

uuChild SafetyuSafety of Larger Children
Safety of Larger Children ■ Protecting Larger Children Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, Honda recommends that you do not carry a child age 12 or under as a passenger. This is because children who have outgrown child seats are also at risk of being injured or killed by an inflating passenger’s front airbag. If a larger child must ride in this vehicle, the information in the following pages provides guidelines to help you decide when a given child may ride in this vehicle, and how to properly protect the child.
■ Checking Seat Belt Fit When a child is too big for a child seat, secure the child in the passenger’s seat using the lap/shoulder seat belt. Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then answer the following questions.
■ Checklist • Do the child's knees bend comfortably over
the edge of the seat?
• Does the shoulder belt cross between the
child's neck and arm?
• Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as
possible, touching the child's thighs?
• Will the child be able to stay seated like this
for the whole trip?
If you answer yes to all these questions, the child is ready to wear the lap/shoulder seat belt correctly. If you answer no to any question, the child needs to ride on a booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat.
62
uuChild SafetyuSafety of Larger Children
1Booster Seats
When installing a booster seat, make sure to read the instructions that came with it, and install the seat accordingly. There are high- and low-type booster seats. Choose a booster seat that allows the child to wear the seat belt correctly.
Some U.S. states and Canadian provinces and territories require children to use a booster seat until they reach a given age or weight (e.g. 6 years or 60 lbs). Be sure to check current laws in the state or province, or territory where you intend to drive.
12 CR-Z-31SZT610.book 63 ページ ２０１１年８月２９日 月曜日 午後８時８分
■ Booster Seats
If a lap/shoulder seat belt cannot be used properly, position the child in a booster seat in the passenger’s seating position. For the child's safety, check that the child meets the booster seat manufacturer's recommendations.
■ Protecting Larger Children-Final Checks If you decide that a child can safely ride in this vehicle, be sure that: • Make sure you read and fully understand the instructions and safety information
in this manual.
• Move the passenger seat as far back as possible. • Have the child sit upright and well back in the seat. • Check that the seat belt is properly positioned so that the child is secure in the
seat.
■ Monitoring a child passenger We strongly recommend that you keep an eye on a child passenger. Even older, more mature children sometimes need to be reminded to fasten their seat belts and sit up properly.

Exhaust Gas Hazard
Carbon Monoxide Gas The engine exhaust from this vehicle contains carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless, and highly toxic gas. As long as you properly maintain your vehicle, carbon monoxide gas will not get into the interior.
■ Have the exhaust system inspected for leaks whenever • The exhaust system is making an unusual noise. • The exhaust system may have been damaged. • The vehicle is raised for an oil change.
When you operate a vehicle with the hatch open, airflow can pull exhaust gas into the interior and create a hazardous condition. If you must drive with the hatch open, open both windows and set the climate control system as shown below.
1. Select the fresh air mode. 2. Select the 3. Set the fan speed to high. 4. Set the temperature control to a comfortable setting.
mode.
Adjust the climate control system in the same manner if you sit in your parked vehicle with the engine running.
1Carbon Monoxide Gas
3WARNING Carbon monoxide gas is toxic. Breathing it can cause unconsciousness and even kill you.
Avoid any enclosed areas or activities that expose you to carbon monoxide.
An enclosed area such as a garage can quickly fill up with carbon monoxide gas. Do not run the engine with the garage door closed. Even when the garage door is open, drive out of the garage immediately after starting the engine.
