If the driver brakes the vehicleheavily in an urgent situa-
tions, occupants will be
thrown forward. If front pas-
sengers are not wearing the
safety belts, they will be
directly in front of the storage
compartment when inflation
occurs. In that situation, seri-
ous injury or death is possi-
ble.
Never allow front passenger to put their hands or feet on
the instrument panel or put
their face close to the instru-
ment panel. The airbag will
impact the front passenger
when it inflates.
(Continued)(Continued)
Never allow children/old and feeble persons/pregnant
women to sit on the front pas-
senger’s seat. Do not put child
restraint systems on the front
passenger’s seat either. They
may be seriously injured by
the airbag inflation when
airbag deploys.
Do not put objects or stickers on the instrument panel. Do
not apply any accessory on
the front windshield glass or
do not install aftermarket mir-
rors or accessories on the fac-
tory installed rearview mirror.
These may interfere with the
deployment of airbag inflation
or could hit your body at high
speed and cause severe bodi-
ly injury and even death.WARNING
The front seat passenger’sairbag is much larger than the
steering wheel airbag and
inflates with considerably
more force. It can seriously
hurt or kill a passenger who is
not in the proper position and
wearing the safety belt proper-
ly. The front passengers
should always move their seat
as far back as practical and sit
back in their seat.
It is essential that the front passengers always wear their
safety belts, even when the
vehicle is moving in a parking
lot or up a driveway into
garage. (Continued)

Electric type (if equipped)
The electric day/night rearview mir-
ror automatically controls the glare
from the headlights of the car behind
you in nighttime or low light driving
conditions. The sensor mounted in
the mirror senses the light level
around the vehicle, and through a
chemical reaction, automatically
controls the headlight glare from
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the
glare is automatically controlled by
the sensor mounted in the rearview
mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted
into reverse (R), the mirror will auto-
matically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view
behind the vehicle.
✽ ✽NOTICE
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do not
spray glass cleaner directly on the
mirror as that may cause the liquid
cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
