Before driving
CAUTION
nSeat adjustment
lDo not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion
to reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt. If the seat is too reclined,
the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
l After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
n After returning the seatback to the upright position
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
lMake sure that the seatback is securely locked in position by lightly rock-
ing it back and forth.
l Check that the seat belts and buckles are not twisted or caught under the
seat.
l Arrange the seat belts in the proper positions for ready use.
NOTICE
nStowing the seat belts
The seat belts and the buckles must be stowed before you fold down the
rear seat backs.

1-3. Adjustable components (s
eats, mirrors, steering wheel)
1
Before driving
Seat belt pretensioners (front seats)
The pretensioner helps the seat
belt to quickly restrain the occu -
pant by retracting the seat belt
w
hen the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal
collision.
The pretensioner may not acti -
vate in the event of a minor frontal
imp
act, a side impact or a rear
impact.
n Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also
lock if you lean forward
too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to
extend so that you can move around fully.
n Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger's shoulder belt is completely extended and then
retracted even
slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be
extended. This feature is used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly.
To free the belt again, fully retract the belt and then pull the belt out once
more. ( →P. 102)
