Pregnant women should always wear their
safety belt. The lap belt portion of a
combination lap and shoulder belt should
be positioned low across the hips below
the belly and worn as tight as comfort will
allow. The shoulder belt should be
positioned to cross the middle of the
shoulder and the center of the chest.
Safety Belt Locking Modes
WARNINGS
After any vehicle collision, the safety
belt system at all passenger seating
positions must be checked by an
authorized dealer to verify that the
automatic locking retractor feature for
child seats is still functioning properly. In
addition, all safety belts should be checked
for proper function. BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY
MUST BE REPLACED if the safety
belt assembly automatic locking
retractor feature or any other safety belt
function is not operating properly when
checked by an authorized dealer. Failure
to replace the belt and retractor assembly
could increase the risk of injury in collisions. All safety restraints in the vehicle are
combination lap and shoulder belts. The
driver safety belt has the first type of
locking mode, and the front outboard
passenger and rear seat safety belts have
both types of locking modes described as
follows: Vehicle Sensitive Mode
This is the normal retractor mode, which
allows free shoulder belt length
adjustment to your movements and
locking in response to vehicle movement.
For example, if the driver brakes suddenly
or turns a corner sharply, or the vehicle
receives an impact of approximately 5 mph
(8 km/h) or more, the combination safety
belts will lock to help reduce forward
movement of the driver and passengers.
In addition, the retractor is designed to lock
if the webbing is pulled out too quickly. If
this occurs, let the belt retract slightly and
pull webbing out again in a slow and
controlled manner.
Automatic Locking Mode
In this mode, the shoulder belt is
automatically pre-locked. The belt will still
retract to remove any slack in the shoulder
belt. The automatic locking mode is not
available on the driver safety belt.
When to Use the Automatic Locking
Mode
This mode should be used any time a child
safety seat, except a booster, is installed
in passenger front or rear seating positions.
Children 12 years old and under should be
properly restrained in a rear seating
position whenever possible. See Child
Safety (page 13).

Proper Driver and Front Passenger
Seating Adjustment
WARNING
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA)
recommends a minimum distance
of at least 10 inches (25 centimeters)
between an occupant’ s chest and the
driver airbag module. To properly position yourself away from
the airbag:
•
Move your seat to the rear as far as you
can while still reaching the pedals
comfortably.
• Recline the seat slightly (one or two
degrees) from the upright position.
After all occupants have adjusted their
seats and put on safety belts, it is very
important that they continue to sit
properly. A properly seated occupant sits
upright, leaning against the seat back, and
centered on the seat cushion, with their
feet comfortably extended on the floor.
Sitting improperly can increase the chance
of injury in a crash event. For example, if
an occupant slouches, lies down, turns
sideways, sits forward, leans forward or
sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the
chance of injury during a crash is greatly
increased.
Children and Airbags WARNING
Airbags can kill or injure a child in a
child seat. Never place a rear-facing
child seat in front of an active airbag.
If you must use a forward-facing child seat
in the front seat, move the seat all the way
back. Children must always be properly
restrained. Accident statistics suggest that
children are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seating positions than in the
front seating position. Failure to follow
these instructions may increase the risk of
injury in a crash.
KNEE AIRBAG
A driver
’s and passenger ’s knee airbag is
located under or within the instrument
panel. During a crash, the restraints control
module may activate the driver ’s and
passenger ’s knee airbag (individually or
both) based on crash severity and
respective occupant conditions. Under
certain crash and occupant conditions, the
driver ’s and passenger ’s knee airbag may
deploy (individually or both) but the
corresponding driver ’s front airbag may not
activate. As with front and side airbags, it
is important to be properly seated and
restrained to reduce the risk of death or
serious injury. Make sure the knee airbags are
operating properly. See Crash
Sensors and Airbag Indicator
(page
40).

Saving a Pre-Set Position
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Adjust the seat and exterior mirrors to
your desired position.
3. Press and hold the desired pre-set button until you hear a single chime.
Up to three pre-set memory positions may
be saved. A memory pre-set may be saved
at any time.
Recalling a Pre-Set Position
Press and release the pre-set button
associated with your desired driving
position. The seat and mirrors will move to
the position stored for that pre-set.
Note: A pre-set memory position can only
be recalled when the ignition is off, or when
the transmission selector lever is in position
P or N (and your vehicle is not moving) if
the ignition is on.
A pre-set memory position can also be
recalled by pressing the unlock button on
your remote control or intelligent access
key if it is linked to a pre-set position, or by
a driver door handle unlock with an
intelligent access key present. Linking a Pre-Set Position to your
Remote Control or Intelligent
Access Key
Your vehicle can save the pre-set memory
positions for up to three remote controls
or intelligent access (IA) keys.
1.
With the ignition on, move the memory
positions to the desired positions.
2. Press and hold the desired pre-set button for about five seconds. A chime
will sound after about two seconds.
Continue holding until a second chime
is heard.
3. Within three seconds, press the lock button on the remote control you are
linking. A single chime will sound.
To unlink a remote control, follow the
same procedure – except in step 3, press
the unlock button on the remote control.
Note: To stop seat movement during a
recall, press any driver seat adjustment
control, any of the memory buttons, or any
mirror control switch.
Seat movement will also stop if you move
your vehicle.
Note: If more than one linked remote
control or IA key is in range, the memory
function will move to the settings of the first
key stored.
Easy Entry and Exit Function
If you enable the easy entry and exit
feature, it automatically moves the driver
seat position rearward up to five
centimeters when the transmission
selector lever is in position
P and the key
is removed or the keyless start ignition is
turned off.
The driver seat will return to the previous
position when the key is put in the ignition
or the keyless start ignition is activated.
