Child safety
Carefully read the sections “Child restraint
systems”, “*SRS airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System airbag)”, and “Seatbelts”
in chapter 1 of this owner’s manual for in-
structions and precautions concerning the
child restraint system, seatbelt system
and SRS airbag system.
yNever hold a child on your lap or
in your arms while the vehicle is
moving. The passenger cannot
protect the child from injury in a
collision, because the child will be
caught between the passenger
and objects inside the vehicle.
yWhile riding in the vehicle, infants
and small children should always
be placed in one of the rear seat-
ing positions recommended in
this owner’s manual in an infant
or child restraint system which is
appropriate for the child’s age,
height and weight. If a child is too
big for a child restraint system,
the child should sit in a REAR seat
and be restrained using the seat-
belts. According to accident sta-
tistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear
seating positions than in the front
seating positions. Never allow a
child to stand up or kneel on the
seat.
yPut children aged 12 and under in
a REAR seat properly restrained
at all times in a child restraint de-
vice or in a seatbelt. The SRS air-
bag deploys with considerable
speed and force and can injure or
even kill children, especially if
they are 12 years of age and under
and are not restrained or improp-
erly restrained. Because children
are lighter and weaker than
adults, their risk of being injured
from deployment is greater.
yNEVER INSTALL A REARWARD
FACING CHILD SAFETY SEAT IN
THE FRONT SEAT. DOING SORISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH TO THE CHILD BY PLAC-
ING THE CHILD’S HEAD TOO
CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.
yAlways use the child safety locks
whenever a child rides in the rear.
Serious injury could result if a
child accidentally opened the
door and fell out. Refer to the
“Door locks” section in chapter 2.
yAlways lock the passenger’s win-
dows using the lock switch when
children are riding in the vehicle.Failure to follow this procedure
could result in injury to a child op-
erating the power window. Refer
to the “Power windows” section
in chapter 2.
yNever leave unattended children
in the vehicle. They could acci-
dentally injure themselves or oth-
ers through inadvertent operation
of the vehicle. Also, on hot or sun-
ny days, temperature in a closed
vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to them.

NOTE
1) Holder
With the seatback folded, attach the
tongue plate of each rear/second-row
seatbelt to the corresponding holder.
Do the same also before someone gets
into the third-row seat. „ Head restraint adjustmentTWindow side seats
To raise the head restraint, pull it up.
To lower it, push the head restraint down
while pressing the release button on the
top of the seatback.
The head restraint should be adjusted so
that the center of the head restraint is clos-
est to the top of the occupant’s ears.

Folding the seatback of the center
seat will expose the bar that re-
tains it in the raised position. Be
careful not to hurt yourself on it.
Especially, do not rest your finger
on the bar. Otherwise, when the
seatback is raised, your finger
could be pinched between the bar
and seatback and thus injured.
y Raise the seatback of the center
seat while taking care not to trap
your hands or other parts of the
body between the center seat and
window-side seat.
