The
airbag
control
unit
monitors
the
readiness
of the
electronic
parts
of the
system
whenever
the
ignition
switch
is
in
the
“ON”
or
“ST
ART” 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 “ST
ART” 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
to
people with respiratory problems.
The
pre-tensioners
activate
in
the
event
of
a
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
the
vehi
cle
may
appea
r to be
severely
damaged.
Such
non-activation
does
not
mean
some-
thing
is wrong
with
the
seat
belt
pre-tensioner
system,
but
rather
that
the
collision
forces
were
not
severe
enough
or
not
of
the
type
to
activate the system.

When
transporting
infants
or
small
children
in your
vehicle,
an
appropriate
child
restraint
system
must
always
be
used.
This
is required
by law in the U.S. and Canada.Child
restraint
systems
specifically
designed
for
infants
and
small
children
are
offered
by
several
manufacturers.
Choose
only
a child
restraint
system
with
a label
certifying
that
it
complies
with
Federal
Motor
Vehicle
Safety
Standard
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
child
restraint
system
should
be
appropri-
ate
for
your
child’
s weight
and
height,
and
should properly fit your vehicle’
s seat.
For
detail
information,
refer
to the
instruction
manual

sys-
tem.

It is imp
ortan
t to
use
an appr
oved
rear
-
facing
infant
restraint
until
the
infant
is
one year
old
(unless
the infan
t outgr
ows

This allows
the infan
t’s
neck
and
spi
ne to develop
enough to sup-
por
t the
weight
of their
head
in the
event
of an
accid
ent.
Whe
n installing
a child restraint
syste
m,
follow
the
instr
uctions
provi
ded by
the
manufac
tur
er and
follow
the
directions
in
this manual
. Failure to do
so can
resul
t in
serious
injury or death
to you

.
After
installat
ion,
push
and
pull
the
child
restraint
system
back
and
forth,
and
side
to side,
to see
that
it is firmly
secur

cause
injury
to the
child
or other
occupa
nts
in the
event of an
acci-

Whe

in use
, keep
your
child restraint
syste
m secu
red with
the
seat
belt,
or
remove
it from
the
vehicle,
in order to pre-
vent
it from
being

inside
the vehicle during an accident.
NOTE
Bef
ore purchasing
a child
restraint
system,
try
installing
it in the
rear
seat
to make
sure
there
is a good
fit.
Because
of the
location
of

has
retracted,
tug
on
it.
If
the
belt
is in
the
ALR
function,
you
will
not
be
able
to
pull
it out.
If the
webbing
can
be
pulled
out
from
retracto
r, the
ALR
function
has
not
been
activated
and
you
will need to repeat steps 3 and 4.5.After
confirming
that
the
belt
is locked,
grab
the
shoulder
part
of
the
belt
near
the
buckle
and
pull
up
to
remove
any
slack
from
the
lap
part
of
the
belt
allowing
the
slack
to feed
into
the
retractor
. Remember
,
if the
lap
belt
portion
is not
tight,
the
child
restraint
system
will
not
be
secure.
It may
help
to
put
your

system
and/or
push
on
its

while
pulling
up
on

suf
ficient
to deploy
the
airbag(s),
the appropriate airbag(s) will be deployed.
When
airbags
deploy
, some
smo

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,

does
not
prevent
people
from

systems
for
a
short
period
of

30

to record
such data as:How

Whether

.
To read
data
recorded
by
an

special
equipment
is required,

1: Approximately at the rear edge of the
rear bumper
2: Approximately 39 inches (100 cm) 3: Approximately 79 inches (200 cm) CAUTION The rear-view camera uses a wide-angle lens. As a result, images and distances shownon the screen are not exact. Actual distance may be different from dis- tance indicated by the lines on the screen, depending on the loading condition of the vehicle and road surface condition.The reference lines for distance and vehicle width are based on a level, flat road surface. In the following cases, objects shown on thescreen will appear to be farther off than they actually are.• When the rear of the vehicle is weigheddown with the weight of passengers and luggage in the vehicle. (Case 1)
• When there is an upward slope at the back. (Case 2)
Case 1 A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screenCase 2 A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
CAUTION The reference lines for distance and vehicle width are intended to indicate the distance to a flat object such as a level, flat road surface. They may not indicate correct distance depending on the shape of an obstacle.For example, when there is an object behind the vehicle that has upper sections projecting in the direction of the vehicle, the referencelines on the screen will indicate that point A is the farthest point a
nd point B is the closest
point to the vehicle. In reality, point A and Bare actually the same distance from the vehi- cle, and point C is farther off than point A and B.
