if the automatic locking retractor/emer- gency locking retractor (ALR/ELR) isactivated. Each seat belt (except for thedriver's) is equipped with an ALR func-tion, which is designed to keep the seatbelt taut when installing a childrestraint. ALR is activated when the seatbelt is pulled out as far as possible. Ifthis is done, a sound from the seat beltretractor will be audible, which is nor-mal. The seat belt can now only be fedinto the retractor, not pulled out. Thisfunction is automatically disabled whenthe seat belt is unbuckled and fullyretracted.

seats can be adjusted.
Press the button on the seat belt holder and move the belt up or down. Position the belt as high as possible with- out it chafing against the neck.
The belt should be positioned closely over the shoul- der (against the collarbone, not down over the arm).

WARNING
Keep the following points in mind with respect to the OWS system. Failure tofollow these instructions couldadversely affect the system's functionand result in serious injury to the occu-pant of the front passenger's seat.
The full weight of the front seat pas-senger should always be on the seatcushion. The passenger should neverlift him/herself off the seat cushionusing the armrest in the door or thecenter console, by pressing the feet onthe floor, by sitting on the edge of theseat cushion, or by pressing againstthe backrest in a way that reducespressure on the seat cushion. Thiscould cause OWS to disable the front,passenger's side airbag.
WARNING
Do not place any type of object on the front passenger's seat in such a waythat jamming, pressing, or squeezingoccurs between the object and thefront seat, other than as a direct resultof the correct use of the AutomaticLocking Retractor/Emergency LockingRetractor (ALR/ELR) seat belt.
No objects should be placed under thefront passenger's seat. This could inter-fere with the OWS system's function.

Driver/passenger side front airbags (p. 56)
Side airbags
The side airbags, on the driver's and passen- ger sides, protect the chest and hip in a colli-sion.
The side airbags are located in the front seats' outer backrest frames and help protect thedriver and front seat passenger. A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trigger the sensors and one or more side air-bags will inflate. The side airbags inflate between the seat occupant and the door panel to help cushion the initial impact of the colli- sion. The airbag deflates when compressed by the collision. The side airbags are normally only deployed on the side of the vehicle impacted by the collision.
