 If the seat belt locks up and cannot be pulled out, pull it once with force and let it retractall the way. Then, pull the belt out slowly once again.
NOTE
 With the exception of the seat belt for the driver, the seat belts in all other seating posi- tions are equipped with an Automatic Lock-ing Retractor (ALR) function. If you pull the seat belt fully out of the retractor, the retrac- tor will switch to its ALR child restraintinstallation function (see page 4-18). When the ALR function has been activated, the seat belt will only retract. If this happens,let the belt fully retract, then pull the seat belt back out, repeating steps 1 through 4.WA R N I N G Be sure the lap belt portion fits snugly and is worn as low as possible across the hips, not around the waist. Failure to follow this instruction will increase the risk of seriousinjury or death in the
event of an accident.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system includes the following components: The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the system whenever
the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” position. These include all of the items listed above and all related wiring. The pre-tensioner seat belt system will oper-ate only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” position. When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate,some smoke is released and a loud noise will be heard. The smoke is not harmful, but care should be taken not to intentionally inhale it,as it may cause some temporary irritation topeople with respiratory problems. The pre-tensioners activate in the event of moderate-to-severe frontal or side impact,even if the seat belt is not being worn. The seat belt pre-tensioners may not activate in certain types of collisions, even though thevehicle may appear to be severely damaged. Such non-activation does not mean some- thing is wrong with the seat belt pre-tensionersystem, but rather that the collision forces were not severe enough or not of the type to activate the system.

When transporting infants or small childrenin your vehicle, an appropriate child restraint system must always be used. This is requiredby law in the U.S. and Canada. Child restraint systems specifically designed for infants and small children are offered byseveral manufacturers. Choose only a child restraint system with a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard 213 (FMVSS 213) or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations (RSSR). Look for the manufac-turer’s statement of compliance on the box and child restraint system itself.

The SRS includes the following components:
The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” position. These include all of theitems listed above and all related wiring. The airbags will operate only when the igni- tion switch is in the “ON” or “START” posi- tion. When the impact sensors detect a front or side impact sufficient to deploy the airbag(s), the appropriate airbag(s) will be deployed.
When airbags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally inhale the smoke as it may cause temporary irrita-tion to people with respiratory problems. After deployment, the airbags will quickly deflate, so quickly that some people may not even realize the airbags inflated.Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or being able to steer the vehicle, and does not prevent people from leaving thevehicle.
N00418600230
This vehicle is equipped with an event datarecorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations,such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in under- standing how a vehicle’s systems performed.
WA R N I N G Older children should be seated in the rear seat with their seat belt properly worn, and with an appropriate booster seat if needed. Refer to “Children who have outgrownchild restraint systems” on page 4-19.

The EDR is designed to record data related to
vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a
short period of time, typically 30 seconds or
less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record
such data as: How various systems in your vehicle were
operating;
 Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened;
 How far (if at all) the driver was depress-
ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;
and,
 How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under-
standing of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required, and access to the vehi-
cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special equip-
ment, can read the information if they have
access to the vehicle or the EDR.
N00417900193
The driver’s seat position sensor is attached
to the seat rail and provides the airbag control
unit with information on the seat’s fore-aft
position. The airbag control unit controls
deployment of the driver’s front airbag in
accordance with the information it receives
from this sensor.
If there is a problem involving the driver’s
seat position sensor, the SRS warning in the
instrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS
warning light/display” on page 4-26.
N00418001387
The passenger’s seat weight sensors are
attached to the seat rails and provide the air-
bag control unit with information regarding
the weight on the front passenger seat. The
airbag control unit controls deployment of the
passenger’s front airbag in accordance with
the information it receives from this sensor.
The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy
in an impact when the weight on the seat is
sensed to be less than approximately
66 pounds (30 kg). In this case, the passen-
ger’s airbag off indicator will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s airbag off indicator” on
page 4-25.
If there is a problem involving the passen-
ger’s seat weight sensors, the SRS warning in
the instrument panel will come on. Refer to
“SRS warning light/display” on page 4-26.
NOTE

EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only
if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data
are recorded by the EDR under normal driv-
ing conditions and no personal data (e.g.,
name, gender, age, and crash location) are
recorded. However, other parties, such as
law enforcement, could combine the EDR
data with the type of personally identifying
data routinely acquired during a crash inves-
tigation.
