Safety system of your vehicle

This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when
using seat belts.
Seat belt safety precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and
make sure all passengers have fas-
tened their seat belts before starting
any trip. Air bags (if equipped) are
designed to supplement the seat belt
as an additional safety device, but
they are not a substitute. Most coun-
tries require all occupants of a vehicle
to wear seat belts.
SEAT BELTS
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehi-
cle is moving. Take the following
precautions when adjusting and
wearing seat belts:
•ALWAYS properly restrain
children under age 13 in the
rear seats.
•NEVER allow children to ride
in the front passenger seat. If
a child age 13 or older must be
seated in the front seat, move
the seat as far back as possi-
ble and properly restrain them
in the seat.
•NEVER allow an infant or child
to be carried on an occupant’s
lap.
•NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is
moving.
•Do not allow children to share
a seat or seat belt.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
•Do not wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back.
•Never wear a seat belt over
fragile objects. If there is a
sudden stop or impact, the
seat belt can damage it.
•Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt
will not protect you properly
in an accident.
•Do not use a seat belt if the
webbing or hardware is dam-
aged.
•Do not latch the seat belt into
the buckles of other seats.
•NEVER unfasten the seat belt
while driving. This may cause
loss of vehicle control result-
ing in an accident.
•Make sure there is nothing in
the buckle interfering with the
seat belt latch mechanism.
This may prevent the seat belt
from fastening securely.

Theft-alarm system (For Brazil)
Intrusion/tilt sensor ON/OFF con-
dition (For Brazil, if equipped)
The intrusion/tilt sensor detects
movement inside the vehicle and
inclination of the vehicle after locking.
•To cancel the sensor operation,
press the sensor ON/OFF button
when the system is in the
"Disarmed" stage and the ignition
switch or Engine Star t/Stop button
is in the OFF position. The button
light will turn on to indicate that the
sensor is deactivated.
•If you press the button again or turn
the ignition switch or Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON position,
the sensor will be activated again.
If the system is armed when the sen-
sor is in the OFF status, the intru-
sion/tilt sensor will not operate. But,
the alarm will be activated when the
system meets the “intrusion/tilt sen-
sor off condition” of “Theft alarm”
stage. Refer to the follow page.
Deactivate the intrusion/tilt sensor
if there are any chances the vehicle
tilts by the outward influences.
For example,
-When the vehicle is transported by
train, boat or trailer.
-When the vehicle is parked at a
parking tower.
Otherwise, the horn may sound inad-
ver tently.
Information
•Make sure all windows are close
while the sensor operates. If not, the
sensor detects the inadvertent move-
ment inside the vehicle (for example,
blowing a wind or entering a butter-
fly) and it makes the horn sounds.
• If boxes are piled high in the vehicle,
the sensor may not detect the move-
ment behind the boxes. Also the
boxes may drop and it makes the
horn sounds.
• If the sensor is stained with foreign
matter such as cosmetics, spray type
air freshener, or spray type window
cleaner, the sensor may not operate
normally.
