infants and small children. Many different
types of child restraint systems are avail-
able; check that the restraint system you
select meets applicable safety standards.
All child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats either by seat
belts (lap belts or the lap portion of lap-
shoulder belts) or by special rigid lower
anchor bars built into the seat.
NOTE:
Observe any statutory regulation about
child restraints. 61M0241 65D608
WARNING EXAMPLE
• Do not install a child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger's seat
since a child restraint system can-
not be installed appropriately.
• If you install a child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat, slide the front
seat far enough forward so that the
child’s feet do not touch the front
seatback. This will help avoid
injury to the child in the event of an
accident.

The amount of engine oil consumption
depends on viscosity and quality of the oil
and your driving conditions.
More oil is consumed during high-speed
driving and when there is frequent acceler-

your engine also will consume more oil.
A new engine also consumes more oil,

As an example, if a vehicle is used for
repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-

because the oil gradually becomes diluted

Tubeless Tires
EXAMPLE The vehicle is equipped with Tubeless
Tires. In tubeless tire, a thin layer of butyl
rubber is used for lining the inside of the
tubeless tire. This layer is to prevent air
loss and fulfilling the purpose of tube. The
air pressure is maintained by the sealing
between tire bead and wheel rim. Tubeless
tires are having advantage of slow air loss
and preventing sudden deflation while driv-
ing.
