{Warning
Be sure to do the following
whenever you leave the vehicle:1. Fully engage the parkingbrake.
2. Stop the engine.
3. Lock the doors. (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
When you close the door after
sitting behind the wheel, check
that the door is fully closed.
Driving with any door ajar is very
dangerous.
Before opening the door when
climbing into or out of the cab,
carefully check all areas around
the vehicle for safety, especially
the area at the rear of the vehicle.
If you suddenly open a door
without checking the surrounding
area, the door could be hit by a
vehicle behind you or a
pedestrian.
Never leave the key in the
vehicle.
Tilt the cab only after fully closing
the doors.
To help reduce the risk of
personal injury in an accident,
always lock the doors when

belts properly, locking the doors
helps prevent people from being
thrown from the vehicle. It also
helps prevent unintended opening
of the doors and helps keep out
intruders.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
To protect the child from the
danger of getting his/her hands
and head trapped, an adult must

{Warning
If you are traveling with a child,
do not leave the child alone in the
vehicle. If the child touches the
controls or equipment, an
accident could occur. (For
example, the vehicle could move
or a fire could start.) Also, the cab
inside could become dangerously
hot in hot weather.
{Warning
Before closing the windows, make
sure that there is no risk of a
hand, head, or anything else
being trapped in the moving
window.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
Regardless of whether the vehicle
is moving or stationary, you must
never allow a child to put his/her
head, hands, or other body part
out of the window. Allowing such
behavior would be dangerous
because the child could hit an
obstacle.
You and others could be seriously
injured.

Seat Position
{Warning
Use caution when adjusting the
seat, as failure to do so could
cause injury. You and others
could be seriously injured.
{Warning
Never allow children to adjust
their seats themselves; an adult
should adjust the seat for
occupants who are children. You
and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
Adjust the seat only before you
start driving. Adjusting the seat
while the vehicle is in motion
must be avoided not only
because the unlocked seat will
move back and forth unstably,
preventing you from taking the
correct position, but might also
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle, possibly resulting in an
accident. You and others could be
seriously injured.
{Warning
Try to move the seat without
unlatching it after making
adjustments to check that it is
completely locked. A loosely
locked seat may move
unexpectedly and your position
might then become unstable; this
could lead to an accident. Take

The rear seat headrests are not
adjustable.
Do not use the rear seats with the
headrests removed during driving.
Seat Belts
The protection provided by seat
belts might be significantly reduced
if they are not fastened properly; in
certain cases, improperly fastened
seat belts can even play a role in
causing injury to the wearer. Seat
belts must be worn not only by the
driver but also by the passenger(s)
before the vehicle starts moving.
You should be fully acquainted with
the proper use of seat belts and
important points to be respected as
described in the following pages.Familiarizing yourself with the
correct use of seat belts is essential
for your safety.
{Warning
To help reduce the risk of
personal injury in collisions or
sudden maneuvers, use the seat
belts following these instructions
on their proper use, maintenance,
and use with child restraint
systems.
Seat belts must always be
fastened BEFORE starting to
drive.
Seat belts provide full protection
only when the driver and
passenger(s) fasten them while
sitting upright and fully back on
the seat.
Wearing a seat belt with the
seatback excessively reclined
could be very dangerous in a
collision or sudden stop since the
occupant may slide under the belt

and be seriously injured. Seat
belts work best only when the
occupant is sitting well back and
straight up in the seat.
Be sure to insert the latch plate
into the buckle until a click is
heard. An incompletely inserted
latch plate is dangerous in the
event of a collision or
sudden stop.
Do not run the seat belt over your
face, chin or neck.
Wear the seat belt as low as
possible around the hips, not
around the waist. A seat belt
running over the waist would
press the abdomen with a strong
force and could increase the
likelihood of injuries in a collision
or sudden stop.
Do not use a seat belt for a small
child if the belt is on or very close
to the child's neck or chin. Also,(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
do not use a seat belt if it does
not fit snugly over the child's hips
because restraining the child
under those conditions could be
dangerous in the event of a
collision or sudden stop. Instead,
use an appropriate child restraint
system available on the market.
For further details, please contact
your dealer.
Use a child restraint system that
fits the size of the infant or child.
Install the system according to
the manufacturer's instructions.
Children who have outgrown child
restraint systems should use the
vehicle's seat belts.
Remove any twists in the seat
belt before fastening it. A seat
belt with twists will not provide full
protection because it cannot(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
disperse shocks efficiently in the
event of a collision or
sudden stop.
Too much slack could increase
the amount of injury because the
belt would not be able to properly
restrain you in an accident.
Do not put the lap portion of a
seat belt over any armrest.
Do not wear a shoulder belt under
your arm nearest the door.
Do not let a buckle release button
face downward or inward.
Expectant mothers or people
suffering from chest or abdominal
conditions should check with their
doctor for specific
recommendations about wearing
seat belts.(Continued)

To Unfasten:
Push the button on the buckle. As
the belt automatically retracts, let it
be taken up slowly by holding on to
the latch plate until the belt is fully
retracted.
While being automatically retracted,
the seat belt could damage a
nearby window or interior trim
unless the latch plate is properly
held. Hold the latch plate to ensure
that the belt is taken up slowly.
Before closing the door, check that
the retracted seat belt is taut.
A slack belt could become trapped
in the door or seat rail.When the passenger's seat belt is
fully taken up (or not pulled out),
check that the stopper is holding the
belt in a fully taut state.
Emergency Locking Retractor
(ELR) Function
The three-point seat belts are
provided with an Emergency
Locking Retractor (ELR) function.
The ELR normally allows the seat
belt to move in and out freely as the
occupant moves. However, it locks
the seat belt to restrain the
occupant when a forward force
resulting from a collision or sudden
stop acts on the occupant.
The ELR also locks the seat belt
when the belt is pulled out quickly.
If this happens, allow it to retract
once and then pull it out slowly.
Seat Belt Use During
Pregnancy
{Warning
Unless the seat belt is correctly
worn, it may dig into the abdomen
in the event of hard braking or a
collision, harming not only the
expectant mother but also the
unborn child, putting them both in
danger of serious injuries or
death.

2. Mix one part neutral detergentinto approximately twenty parts
warm water.
3. Wet a nail brush or another similar brush having soft
bristles (of nylon or the like) in
warm water, and use this to
clean away dirt.
4. Wipe the seat belt dry using a dry cloth, and then allow it to
dry naturally out of direct
sunlight.
5. Check to be sure the seat belt retracts and pulls out correctly. If the above-described upkeep
operations do not improve the
operation of the seat belt through
the retractor, there is a possibility
that the belt is making contact with
the door pillar trim. In this case,
arrange for inspection and
maintenance to be carried out by
your dealer.
If the belt is not winding and
unwinding correctly, or if inspection
reveals problems such as loose
mountings, metal parts deformation,
webbing damage, fraying or
discoloration, arrange for
replacement to be carried out by
your dealer.Child Restraints
Child Restraint Systems
{Warning
Children small enough for child
restraints (as indicated on the
label of such restraints), including
booster seats, should always be
transported in them. Children who
have outgrown child restraint
systems should wear seat belts.
The lap belt should be snug and
positioned low on the abdomen
so that it is below the top of the
hipbone. Otherwise, the belt could
intrude into the child's abdomen
during an accident and cause
personal injury. When a child has
grown enough so that the
shoulder belt can be worn, a
seating position with a shoulder
belt should be chosen whenever
possible.
