Head Restraints
Slide the head restraint up or down so that the top of the
restraint
is closest to the top of your ears.
This position reduces the chance
of a neck injury in a
crash.
Folding Rear Seats (Wagon)
To add more cargo room, the seatbacks of your rear
second and optional rear-facing third seats can be easily
folded down. Be sure to check your seatback latches
now and then by pushing the seatback back and forth.
If
they do not latch properly, have them checked by your
dealer.
Remember
to keep safety belts clear of seat hinges and
latches
so they are not damaged when you raise and
lower the seatbacks.

Safety Belts: They’re For Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts
properly. It also tells
you some things you should not do
with safety belts.
And it explains the Supplemental Restraint System, or
“air bag” system.
This figure lights up as a reminder
to buckle up. (See
“Safety Belt Warning Light”
in the Index.)
In many states and Canadian provinces, the law says to
wear safety belts. Here’s why: They work.
You never know if you’ll be in a crash. If you do have a
crash, you don’t know
if it will be a bad one.
