Head restraintsFRONT HEAD RESTRAINTS
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of the head restraint is above the
centre line of the he ad. An incorrectly
adjusted head restraint increases the
risk of death or serious injury in the
event of a collision.
It is possible to swivel the head
restraint forwards or backwards. For
greater protection in the event of a
collision, the head restraint should be
adjusted so that it is as close to the
back of the head as is practical.
Never adjust the head restraints while
the vehicle is in motion.
Powered head restraints:
1. To adjust the height of the head restraint,
see 12, ELECTRIC SEATS .
2. To adjust the angle of the head restraint,
press the locking button on the side of the
restraint and tilt to the desired position.
Note: It is not possible to remove powered
head restraints.
Manual head restraints:
Do not drive or carry passengers with
the head restraint removed from an
occupied seat. Th e absence of a
correctly adjusted head restraint
increases the risk of neck injury in the
event of a collision.
Always store a removed head restraint
securely. 1.
To raise, pull the rest raint upwards, it will
click and lock in position.
Note: Do not try to raise the head restraint
further than the thir d adjustment position.
2. To lower, depress the locking collar and

REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to
support the head, not the back of the
neck. The head restraint must be
positioned correctly to restrain
rearward movement of the head in the
event of a collision.
While stationary, adjust the head
restraint so that the top of the head
restraint is above the centre line of the
head. An incorrectly adjusted head
restraint increases the risk of death or
serious injury in the event of a
collision.
1. If the head restraint is to be lowered, press
and hold the locking collar (it is
unnecessary to press the locking collar to
raise the restraint).
2. Move the head restraint up or down to the
required position.
REAR HEAD RESTRAINT REMOVAL
Do not drive or carry passengers with
the head restraint removed from an
occupied seat. The absence of a
correctly adjusted head restraint
increases the risk of neck injury in the
event of a collision.
Always store a removed head restraint
securely.
It is possible to remove the rear head
restraints, if required (e.g. to enable the fitment
of a child restraint), as follows:
• Raise the head restraint to its uppermost
position and press the locking collar.
• Lift the head restraint out of the seat.
Ensure the head restraint is refitted before the
seat is used by a passenger.
To refit the head restraint, ensure it is facing

steering column will move to the
uppermost tilt position.
• Entry: When the driver’s door is closed and
the ignition is turn ed on, the steering
column will return to its previously
selected driving position.
Note: If the column control is moved away
from AUTO when the column is in the Exit
position, the column will still move back to its
previous driving position when the driver’s
door is closed and the ignition is switched on.

Occupant safety
SEAT BELT SAFETY
Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild
soap and water.
The belt should be replaced if
webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in a
severe impact, even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious.
Do not carry hard, fragile or sharp
items between your person and the
seat belt.
Seat belts should be worn by all
vehicle occupants, for every journey,
no matter how short.
When using seat belts to restrain
items other than occupants, take care
to ensure that t he belts are not
damaged, or exposed to sharp edges.
The use of comfort clips, or devices
that would create slackness in the
seat belt system, is not advised.
SEAT BELT CHECKS
Note: If the vehicle is parked on an incline, the
seat belt mechanism may lock. This is a safety
feature and the belt shoul d be gently eased out
from the upper anchorage.
The seat belts should be inspected regularly to
check for fraying, cuts or wear to the webbing,
and the condition and security of the mechanism, buckles, ad
justers, and mounting
points.
• With the seat belt fastened, give the
webbing near the buckle a quick upward
pull. The buckle must remain securely
locked.
• With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the
seat belt to the limit of its travel. Check that
it unreels smoothly with no snatches or
snags. Allow the belt to fully retract, again
checking for smooth operation.
• Partially unreel the se at belt, then hold the
tongue plate and give a quick forward pull.
The mechanism must lock and prevent any
further unreeling.
If any of the seat belts fail to meet those
criteria, immediately contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.

1. If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear
door interior handles are disabled.
To change the child lock settings:-
•Open the door to access the child
safety lock.
• Insert the emergency key into the slot
and rotate a quarter of a turn, to enable
or disable the interior door handle, as
required.
2. To install an ISOFIX child seat (not
Australia):-
•Raise the head restraint on the relevant
seat.
• Locate the lower anchor bars which are
accessible through the gap between
the seat back and seat base. Insert the
protective guides supplied with the
child seat as shown. The insertion
positions for the guides are identified
by the ISOFIX labels.
• Slide the child seat locking mechanism
into the protective sleeves and onto the
anchor bars.
• Test the security of the child restraint.
To do this, attempt to pull the restraint
away from the vehicle seat and twist
the restraint from side to side. Even if
the restraint appears secure you
should always check the anchor points
visually to ensure correct attachment.
Note: Always ensure that if an upper tether
is provided, it is fitted and tightened
correctly.
3. To adjust the seat belt height:-
•Press to release the catch.
• With the catch depressed slide the
mechanism up or down to the required
height. Release the catch and ensure
the locking mechanism has engaged. The use of comfort clips or devices
that would create sl
ack in the seat
belt system, is not advised.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating
to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.
4. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensure that the
belt height, the seat , and your position on
the seat are correct.
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap
section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly
reduce the protection afforded to
the wearer.
Belts should not be worn with the
straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only be
used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the
occupant's lap.
The occupants of the front seats
should not travel with the seat
back at more than 30 degrees from
upright. Doing so will reduce the
protection afforded by the seat
belt.
