Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver’s foot
area could interfere with the oper
ation of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident. Do not place
anything under the front seats.
WARNING
Uprighting seat
When you return the seatback to
its upright position, hold the seat
back and return it slowly and be
sure there are no other occupants
around the seat. If the seatback is
returned without being held and
controlled, the back of the seat
could move forward or backward
resulting in accidental injury to a
person struck by the seatback.
WARNING
Driver responsibility for
passengers
Riding in a vehicle with seatback
reclined could lead to serious or
fatal injury in an accident. If a seat
is reclined during an accident, the
occupant’s hips may slide under the
lap portion of the seat belt applying
great force to the unprotected
abdomen. The protection of your
restraint system (seat belt and air
bags) is greatly reduced by reclin
ing your seat. Serious or fatal inter
nal injuries could result. The driver
m

ust advise the passenger to keep
the seatback in an upright position
whenever the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that
reduces friction between the seat
and passenger. The passenger's
hips may slide under the lap por
tion of the seat belt during an acci
dent or a sudden stop. Serious or
fatal internal injuries could result
because the seat belt can't oper
ate normally.
WARNING

If you recline the seatback towards
the front with the head restraint and
seat cushion raised, the head
restraint may come in contact with
the sunvisor or other parts of the
vehicle.

Removal (if equipped)
To remove the headrest, raise it as far
as it can go then press the release
button (1) while pulling upward (2).To reinstall the headrest, put the
headrest poles (3) into the holes
while pressing the release button (1).
Then adjust it to the appropriate
height.
Folding the rear seat
The rear seatbacks (or cushions)
may be folded to facilitate carrying
long items or to increase the luggage
capacity of the vehicle. 1. Set the front seatback to the
upright position and if necessary,
slide the front seat forward.
2. Insert the rear lap\fshoulder belt plate into the holder on the side
trim. It will prevent the lap\fshoulder
belt from interfering with the seat
back when folding.
•Never allow passengers to sit on
top of the folded down seatback
while the vehicle is moving as
this is not a proper seating posi
tion and no seat belts are avail
able for use. This could result in
serious injury or death in case of
an accident or sudden stop.
•Objects carried on the folded
down seatback should not
extend higher than the top of the
front seats. This could allow
cargo to slide forward and cause
in

jury or damage during sudden
stops.
WARNING
OIB034010
Make sure the headrest locks in
position after adjusting it to prop
erly protect the occupants.

• When returning the rear seatbacksto the upright position, remember
to return the rear shoulder belts to
their proper position.
• Routing the seat belt webbing through the rear seat belt guides
will help keep the seat belts from
being trapped behind or under the
seats.
Armrest (if equipped)
The armrest is located in the center
of the rear seat. Pull the armrest
down from the seatback to use it.
NOTICE
Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
Continuously Variable Transaxle
is in P (Park) or the Manual
Transaxle is in R (Reverse) or 1st,
and the parking brake is securely
applied whenever loading or
unloading cargo. Failure to take
these steps may allow the vehicle
to move if the shift lever is inad
vertently moved to another posi
tion.
WARNING
Cargo
Cargo should always be secured
to prevent it from being thrown
about the vehicle in a collision and
causing injury to the vehicle occu
pants. Do not place objects in the
rear seats, since they cannot be
properly secured and may hit the
front seat occupants in a collision.

•For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the
car is moving.
•Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the
upright position.
•Children age 12 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow chil
dren to ride in the front passen
ger seat. If a child over 12 must
be seated in the front seat,
he\fshe must be properly belted
and the seat should be moved
a

s far back as possible.

WARNING (Continued)
•Never wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back. An improperly positioned
shoulder belt can cause serious
injuries in a crash. The shoulder
belt should be positioned mid
way over your shoulder across
your collarbone.
•Never wear a seat belt over
fragile objects. If there is a sud
den stop or impact, the seat belt
can damage it.
•Avoid wearing twisted seat
belts. A twisted belt can't do its
job as

well. In a collision, it could
even cut into you. Be sure the
belt webbing is straight and not
twisted.
•Be careful not to damage the
belt webbing or hardware. If the
belt webbing or hardware is
damaged, replace it.
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap section
of the belt across the abdominal
area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection for
which they have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care sh

ould be taken to avoid con
tamination of the webbing with pol
ishes, oils and chemicals, and par
ticularly battery acid. Cleaning may
safely be carried out using mild
soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or damaged.

"&t%'s%st&'!"'%!'&&

Seat belt warning (if equipped)
As a reminder to the driver (or front
passemgers)*, the driver’s (or front
passemger’s)* seat belt warning
lights will illuminate for approximate
ly 6 seconds each time you turn the
ignition switch ON regardless of belt
fastening.
If the driver’s (or front passemger’s)*
seat belt is not fastened when the
ignition switch is turned ON or if it is
disconnected after the ignition switch
is turned ON, the seat belt warning
light will illuminate until the belt is
fastened.
(Continued)
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in
a severe impact even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. Belts
should not be worn with straps
twisted. Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the occu
pant's lap.
•No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from oper
ating to remove slack, or prevent
the seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
•When you fasten the seat belt, be
careful not to latch the seat belt in
buckles of other seat. It's very dan
gerous and you may not be pro
tected by the seat belt properly.
•Do not unfasten the seat belt and
do not fasten and unfasten the
seat belt repeatedly while driving.
This could result in loss of control,
and an accident causing death,
serious injury, or property dam
age.
•When fastening the seat belt,
make sure that the seat belt does
not pass
over objects that are
hard or can break easily.
•Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle. The seat belt may not be
fastened securely.

If the shoulder belt portion slightly
touches the child’s neck or face, try
placing the child closer to the center of
the vehicle. If the shoulder belt still
touches their face or neck they need to
be returned to a child restraint system.
Pregnant women
The use of a seat belt is recom
mended for pregnant women to
lessen the chance of injury in an
accident. When a seat belt is used,
the lap belt portion should be placed
as low and snugly as possible on the
hips, not across the abdomen. For
specific recommendations, consult a
physician.
Injured person
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
When this is necessary, you should
consult a physician for recommenda
tions.
One person per belt
Two people (including children)
should never attempt to use a single
seat belt. This could increase the
severity of injuries in case of an acci
dent.
Do not lie down
To reduce the chance of injuries in
the event of an accident and to
achieve maximum effectiveness of
the restraint system, all passengers
should be sitting up and the front and
rear seats should be in an upright
position when the car is moving. A
seat belt cannot provide proper pro
tection if the person is lying down in
the rear seat or if the front and rear
seats are in a reclined position.
Shoulder belts on small children
•Never allow a shoulder belt to
be in contact with a child’s neck
or face while the vehicle is in
motion.
•If seat belts are not properly
worn and adjusted on children,
there is a risk of death or serious
injury.
WARNING
Pregnant women
Pregnant women must never
place the lap portion of the safety
belt over the area of the abdomen
where the fetus is located or
above the abdomen where the
belt could crush the fetus during
an impact.
