Front air ventilation seat(if equipped)
The air ventilation seats are provided
to cool the front seats by blowing air
through small vent holes on the sur-
face of the seat cushions and seat-
backs.
When the operation of the air ventila-
tion seat is not needed, keep the
switches in the OFF position.
While the engine is running, push the
switch to cool the driver's seat or thefront passenger's seat (if equipped). Each time you push the switch, the
airflow changes as follows:
When pressing the switch for more than 1.5 seconds with the air venti-lation seat operating, the operation
will turn OFF.
The air v entilation seats def aults to
the OFF position whenever the
ignition switch is placed to the ONposition.
To prevent damage to the air ven-tilation seat:
Use the air ventilation seat ONLY when the climate control system
is on. Using the air ventilation
seat for prolonged periods of
time with the climate control sys-tem off could cause the air venti-lation seat to malfunction. Never use a solvent such as paint
thinner, benzene, alcohol or gaso-
line to clean the seats.
Avoid spilling liquids on the sur- face of the front seats and seat-
backs; this may cause the air vent
holes to become blocked and not
work properly.
Do not place materials such as plastic bags or newspapers under
the seats. They may block the airintake causing the air vents to not
work properly.
Do not change the seat covers. It may damage the air ventilationseat.

may increase the risk of serious
injury in an accident. Take the fol-
lowing precautions when adjust-ing the seat belt:
Position the lap portion of the
seat belt as low as possible
across your hips, not on your
waist, so that it fits snugly. This
allows your strong pelvic bones
to absorb the force of the crash,
reducing the chance of internalinjuries.

shoulder belt and the other over
the belt, as shown in the illus-tration.
Always position the shoulder
belt anchor into the locked

Information
If you are not able to pull out the safe-
ty belt from the retractor, firmly pull
the belt out and release it. After
release, you will be able to pull the belt
out smoothly.Pre-tensioner seat belt
Your vehicle is equipped with driver'sand front passenger's and rear pas-sengers (if equipped) Pre-tensioner
Seat Belts (Retractor Pretensioner).
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to
make sure the seat belts fit tightlyagainst the occupant's body in cer-
tain frontal or side collision(s). The
pre-tensioner seat belts may be acti-
vated in crashes where the frontal or
side collision(s) is severe enough,
together with the air bags.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or
if the occupant tries to lean forward
too quickly, the seat belt retractor will
lock into position. In certain frontal collisions, the pre-
tensioner will activate and pull theseat belt into tighter contact against
the occupant's body.
If the system senses excessive tension
on the driver or passenger's seat beltwhen the pre-tensioner system acti-
vates, the load limiter inside the retrac-tor pre-tensioner will release some of
the pressure on the affected seat belt.
i
OLMB033039Always wear your seat belt and
sit properly in your seat.
Do not use the seat belt if it is
loose or twisted. A loose or
twisted seat belt will not pro-
tect you properly in an acci-dent.
Do not place anything near the
buckle. This may adversely
affect the buckle and cause it
to function improperly.
Always replace your pre-ten-
sioners after activation or anaccident.
