IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
You will find many safety precautions
and recommendations throughout
this section, and throughout this man-
ual. The safety precautions in this
section are among the most impor-
tant.
Always wear your seat belt
A seat belt is your best protection in
all types of accidents. Air bags are
designed to supplement seat belts,
not replace them. So even though
your vehicle is equipped with air
bags, ALWAYS make sure you and
your passengers wear your seat
belts, and wear them properly.
Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in
a rear seat, not the front seat. Infants
and small children should be
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint. Larger children should use
a booster seat with the lap/shoulder
belt until they can use the seat belt
properly without a booster seat.
Air bag hazards
Whilst air bags can save lives, they
can also cause serious or fatal inju-
ries to occupants who sit too close to
them, or who are not properly
restrained. Infants, young children,
and short adults are at the greatest
risk of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Follow all instructions and warn-
ings in this manual.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious
and potentially deadly danger, espe-
cially for inexperienced drivers.
Safety should be the first concern
when behind the wheel and drivers
need to be aware of the wide array of
potential distractions, such as drowsi-
ness, reaching for objects, eating,
personal grooming, other passen-
gers, and using mobile phones.
Drivers can become distracted when
they take their eyes and attention off
the road or their hands off the wheel
to focus on activities other than driv-
ing. To reduce your risk of distraction
and an accident:
‡ALWAYS set up your mobile devic-
es (i.e., MP3 players, phones, navi-
gation units, etc.) when your vehicle
is parked or safely stopped.
‡ONLY use your mobile device when
allowed by laws and conditions per-
mit safe use.
‡
NEVER text or email whilst driving.
Most countries have laws prohibit-
ing drivers from texting. Some
countries and cities also prohibit
drivers from using handheld
phones.
‡NEVER let the use of a mobile
device distract you from driving.
You have a responsibility to your
passengers and others on the road
to always drive safely, with your
hands on the wheel as well as your
eyes and attention on the road.

Safety precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are
sitting in a safe, comfortable position
plays an important role in driver and
passenger safety together with the
seat belts and air bags in an accident.
WARNING
Do not use a cushion that reduces
friction between the seat and the
passenger. The passenger’s hips
may slide under the lap portion of
the seat belt during an accident or
a sudden stop. Serious or fatal
internal injuries could result
because the seat belt cannot oper-
ate properly.
Air bags
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury in
the event the air bag inflates. Move
your seat as far back as possible from
front air bags, whilst still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death from an inflating air bag,
take the following precautions:
‡Adjust the driver’s seat as far to
the rear as possible whilst main-
taining the ability to maintain full
control of the vehicle.
‡Adjust the front passenger seat
as far to the rear as possible.
‡Hold the steering wheel by the
rim with hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to mini-
mise the risk of injuries to your
hands and arms.
‡NEVER place anything or anyone
between the air bag.
‡Do not allow the front passenger
to place feet or legs on the dash-
board to minimise the risk of leg
injuries.

3-6
Safety system
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting any trip.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in appropriate child
restraint systems. Children who have
outgrown a booster seat and adults
must be restrained using the seat
belts.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat belt:
‡NEVER use one seat belt for
more than one occupant.
‡Always position the seatback
upright with the lap portion of
the seat belt snug and low across
the hips.
‡NEVER allow children or small
infants to ride in a passenger’s
lap.
‡Do not route the seat belt across
your neck, across sharp edges,
or reroute the shoulder strap
away from your body.
‡Do not allow the seat belt to
become caught or jammed.
Front seats
The front seat can be adjusted by
using the control lever or switches
located on the outside of the seat
cushion. Before driving, adjust the
seat to the proper position so that you
can easily control the steering wheel,
foot pedals and controls on the instru-
ment panel.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat:
‡NEVER attempt to adjust the seat
whilst the vehicle is moving. The
seat could respond with unex-
pected movement and may
cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
‡Do not place anything under the
front seats. Loose objects in the
driver’s foot area could interfere
with the operation of the foot
pedals, causing an accident.
‡Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position and
proper locking of the seatback.
‡Do not place a cigarette lighter
on the floor or seat. When you
operate the seat, gas may exit
out of the lighter causing a fire.
‡Use extreme caution when pick-
ing small objects trapped under
the seats or between the seat
and the centre console. Your
hands might be cut or injured by
the sharp edges of the seat
mechanism.

Seatback angle
OAC3039003R
To recline the seatback:
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up the
seatback lever.
2. Carefully lean back on the seat
and adjust the seatback to the
position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure
the seatback is locked in place.
(The lever MUST return to its origi-
nal position for the seatback to
lock.)Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be danger-
ous. Even when buckled up, the pro-
tections of your restraint system (seat
belts and/or air bags) is greatly
reduced by reclining your seatback.
WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious
or fatal injuries in the event of a
collision or sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should
ALWAYS sit well back in their
seats, properly belted, and with
the seatbacks upright.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt cannot do its job
because it will not be snug against
your chest. Instead, it will be in front
of you.
During an accident, you could be
thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined,
the greater chance the passenger’s
hips will slide under the lap belt or the
passenger’s neck will strike the shoul-
der belt.

3-10
Safety system
Rear seats (if equipped)
The rear seatbacks can be folded to
facilitate carrying long items or to
increase the luggage capacity of the
vehicle.
WARNING
‡Never allow passengers to sit on
top of the folded down seatback
whilst the vehicle is moving. This
is not a proper seating position
and no seat belts are available
for use. This could result in seri-
ous 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 seatbacks. This could allow
cargo to slide forward and cause
injury or damage during sudden
stops.1. Set the front seatback to the
upright position and if necessary,
slide the front seat forward.
2. Lower the rear head restraints to
the lowest position (if equipped
with adjustable head restraints).
OAI3039010
3. Insert the rear lap/shoulder belt
plate into the holder on the side
trim. It will prevent the lap/shoulder
belt from interfering with the seat-
back when folding.

SEAT BELTS
This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when
using seat belts.
Seat belt safety precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and
make sure all passengers have fas-
tened their seat belts before starting
any trip. Air bags (if equipped) are
designed to supplement the seat belt
as an additional safety device, but
they are not a substitute. Most coun-
tries require all occupants of a vehicle
to wear seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehicle
is moving. Take the following pre-
cautions when adjusting and wear-
ing seat belts:
‡ALWAYS properly restrain chil-
dren under age 13 in the rear
seats.
‡NEVER allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child age 13 or older must be
seated in the front seat, move the
seat as far back as possible and
properly restrain them in the
seat.
‡NEVER allow an infant or child to
be carried on an occupant’s lap.
‡NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is mov-
ing.
‡Do not allow children to share a
seat or seat belt.
‡Do not wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back.‡Never wear a seat belt over frag-
ile objects. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the seat belt can
damage it.
‡Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will
not protect you properly in an
accident.
‡Do not use a seat belt if the web-
bing or hardware is damaged.
‡Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.
‡NEVER unfasten the seat belt
whilst driving. This may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting
in an accident.
‡Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism. This may
prevent the seat belt from fasten-
ing securely.
‡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.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate prop-
erly. Always replace:
‡Frayed, contaminated, or dam-
aged webbing.
‡Damaged hardware.
‡The entire seat belt assembly
after it has been worn in an acci-
dent, even if damage to webbing
or assembly is not apparent.
