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 15).
How to Use the Automatic Locking
Mode
Non-inflatable safety belts
1. Buckle the combination lap and
shoulder belt.
2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt
is pulled out. As the belt retracts,
you will hear a clicking sound. This
indicates the safety belt is now in
the automatic locking mode.
Rear outboard inflatable safety
belts (second row only –if
equipped) 1. Buckle the combination lap and
shoulder belt.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER
AIRBAGS
WARNINGS
Never place your arm or any
objects over an airbag module.
Placing your arm over a deploying
airbag can result in serious arm
fractures or other injuries. Objects
placed on or over the airbag inflation
area may cause those objects to be
propelled by the airbag into your face
and torso causing serious injury. 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. The driver and front passenger airbags
will deploy during significant frontal
and near frontal collisions.
The driver and passenger front airbag
system consists of:
•
Driver and passenger airbag
modules.
• Front passenger sensing system. · Crash sensors and
monitoring system with
readiness indicator. See
Crash Sensors and Airbag
Indicator (page 51).
Proper Driver and Front
Passenger Seating Adjustment WARNING
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA)
recommends a minimum distance of
at least 10 in. (25 cm) 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’ s
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.
