Safety Checklist
For the safety of you and your passenge rs, make a habit of checking these items
each time before you drive.
• After everyone has entered the vehicle, be sure all doors and the tailgate are
closed and locked. Locking the doors and the tailgate helps prevent an occupant
from being ejected and an outsider from unexpectedly opening a door or the
tailgate.
2 Locking/Unlocking the Doors from the Inside P. 161
•Adjust your seat to a position suitable for driving. Be sure the front seats are
adjusted as far to the rear as possible while allowing the driver to control the
vehicle. Sitting too close to a front airbag can result in serious or fatal injury in a
crash.
2 Seats P. 205
•Adjust head restraints to the proper position. Head restraints are most effective
when the center of the head restraint alig ns with the center of your head. Taller
persons should adjust their head restraint to the highest position.
2 Adjusting the Front Head Restraint Positions P. 213
•Always wear your seat belt, and make sure you wear it properly. Confirm that any
passengers are properly belted as well.
2 Fastening a Seat Belt P. 54
•Protect children by using seat belts or child seats according to a child’s age,
height, and weight.

Safe Driving
■Rear seats
Your vehicle monitors rear seat belt use.
A driver information inte rface notifies you if
any of the rear seat belts are unfastened after
they were previously fastened.
In order to encourage the driver to evaluate
rear seat belt usage, the display appears
when:
• Any of the rear passengers’ seat belts are
unfastened when the power mode is
turned to ON.
• A rear door is opened and then closed.
• Any of the rear passengers fastens or
unfastens their seat belt.
The seat belt reminder indicator blinks and
beeper sounds if any rear passenger’s seat belt
is unfastened while driving.1 Seat Belt Reminder
The system will not detect a passenger in the rear
seats who has not fastened the seat belt.
The driver should check the status of the rear
passengers’ seat belts at th e start of each trip and
each time a passenger is seated in the rear seats,
using the driver information interface as an aid.
An alert will sound if a pa ssenger in the rear seats
unfastens the seat belt whil e the vehicle is in motion
or if motion resumes wh ile the graphic is red.
The driver information interface uses colors to aid the
driver in checking the st atus of the passengers.
For the rear seating positions:
•Green indicates the seat belt is fastened.
•An unfastened gray graphic indicates the seat belt
has not been fastened recently.
•An unfastened red graphic indicates the seat belt
was unfastened recently.
The system does not monito r harnesses that are part
of a child seat, the anchors of the LATCH system, or
the anchor buckle of the rear center seat belt.
While the system can inform you that a seat belt
buckle is fastened, it ca nnot determine whether the
rear center seat belt anchor buckle is in use or if a
child seat is properly installed or used. 2 Protecting Child Passengers P. 79
