Because the side air bags and curtain air bags do not protect the
occupant in all types of collisions, be sure to always properly
wear your seat belts.
WARNING
!●The side air bags and curtain air bags are designed
to supplement the driver and passenger seat belts in
certain side impacts. Seat belts should always be
worn properly, and the driver and passenger should
sit well back and upright without leaning against the
window or door.
WARNING
!●The side air bags and curtain air bags inflate with
great force. The driver and passenger should not put
their arms out the window, and should not lean
against the door, in order to reduce risk of serious or
possibly fatal injury from the deploying side air bags
and curtain air bags.

NOTE●Do not leave the headlamps and other lamps on for a long
while the engine is stationary. A run-down battery could
result.
●When it rains, or when the vehicle has been washed, the
inside of the lens sometimes becomes foggy. This is the
same phenomenon as when window glass mists up on a
humid day, and does not indicate a functional problem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will remove the
fog. However, if water gathers inside the lamp, we recom-
mend you to have it checked.[Vehicles with Daytime Running Lamp]When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position and the lamp
switch is set to the “OFF” position, the low beam of the head-
lamps, tail lamps, etc., will illuminate.
