To reduce the risk of injuries in an accident,
follow these instructions:
-The driver and front passenger position
their seats so that they can correctly
wear the seat belt while being as far
away from the front airbags as possible.
- Sit upright, place both feet on the
floor, and make sure that the seat back
reclines no more than 30 degrees.
- Easily reach the pedals with your feet
and slightly bend your arms while
holding the steering wheel. The distance
between the driver

belts in use to make sure they are correctly
latched. Remove any heavy objects (such as
a briefcase) from any unoccupied seats. If the
indicator remains on, contact a Lucid Service
Center .
In addition to the seat belt reminder, a graphic
of the seat layout displays on the left side of
the Cockpit Panel. The seat layout displays the detected occupied seats and the seat beltuse status.
When the seat location displays a green
indicator, it indicates that the seat
position is occupied and the seat belt
is fastened.
When a seat location displays a red seat
belt indicator, it indicates that the seat
position is occupied but the seat belt is
not fastened.
Using Seat Belts When PregnantWARNING: Pregnant women must
wear seat belts to protect themselves
and their unborn child.WARNING: Do not place anything
between you and the seat belt to
cushion the impact in the event of a
collision.
Wear the lap portion of the seat belt as low
as possible across the hips, not the waist.
Position the shoulder part of the belt between
the breasts and to the side of the abdomen.
Make sure that the seat belt has no slack and
is not twisted.
For any concerns about wearing seat belts,
consult with your physician.
Seat Belt Pre-tensionersWARNING: If a seat belt pre-tensioner
activates, it must be replaced. After
an impact or collision, even if there is
no obvious damage, always have the
seat belts checked and (if necessary)
replaced by a Lucid Service Center.
The seat belts for the front and outboard
rear seating positions are equipped with pre )tensioners that work either independently
or in conjunction with the airbags in a severe
front or side-impact collision, depending upon
the severity of a crash.
Note: A pre-tensioner activates if the seat belt
is already buckled at the time of the collision.
The pre-tensioners automatically retract the
seat belts, reducing any slack in both the lap
and shoulder portions of the belts, thereby
reducing the forward movement of the seat
belt wearer.
The seat belt pre-tensioners can only activate
once before a Lucid Service Center must
replace them.
If a pre-tensioner activates, the
airbag warning indicator displays on
the Cockpit Panel.
Note: Even if the pre-tensioners activate, the
seat belts still function as restraints. Continue
to wear the seat belts if the vehicle remains in
a drivable condition.

Child Safety
Guidelines for Seating Children
All child restraint systems are designed to be
secured by lap belts or the lap belt portion of
the lap-shoulder belt.
WARNING: Do not use a child
restraint on a seat with an operational
airbag in front of it. There is a risk
of death or serious injury when the
airbag deploys. Crash statistics show
that children are safest when properly
restrained in a child or infant restraint
system that is secured in a rear seating position.WARNING: Do not use a forward-
facing child seat until the child using
it is above the minimum weight of 20
lb (9 kg) and able to sit up unaided.
Up to the age of two years, a child

Airbag Safety InformationWARNING: Even with airbags, the
driver and occupants must always
wear their seat belts to minimize the
risk of severe injury or death in the
event of a collision.WARNING: Do not attach or place
objects on or near the front airbags,
the side of the front seats, the
headliner at the side of the vehicle, or
any other location that could interfere
with the inflation of an airbag. Objects
can cause serious injury if the vehicle
is in a collision severe enough to
cause the airbag to deploy.WARNING: For the curtain airbags
to deploy correctly, the roof lining
and A )post trim must be undamaged
and installed correctly. Any damage
or suspect installation should be
referred to a Lucid Service Center for
inspection.WARNING: Front-seat occupants
should not place any part of their
arms, body against the steering wheel
or dashboard area, as an inflating
airbag can cause fractures or other injuries.WARNING: Do not use seat covers
in the vehicle. A seat cover could
interfere with the deployment of the
seat-mounted side airbags in the
event of a collision.WARNING: Airbags inflate with
considerable speed and force. To
reduce the risk of injuries, ensure that
all occupants are wearing seat belts
and are correctly seated, with seats
positioned as far back from any front
airbags as possible.WARNING: Never use a child safety
seat or seat young children on a seat
with an operational airbag in front of
it. Doing so can cause serious injury
or death if the airbag deploys.WARNING: To ensure correct inflation
of the side airbags, maintain
an unobstructed gap between an
occupant
Page 61 of 241
-Slow speed front impacts
- Side impacts
- Driving over bumps or potholes
Therefore, significant superficial damage can
occur to the vehicle without the airbags
inflating or, conversely, a relatively small
amount of not easily visualized structural
damage can cause airbags to inflate.
Types of Airbags
Front airbags
The front airbags are designed to protect
the head and chest of the driver and front passenger from impact with the steering
wheel and dashboard panel components.
The front airbags fitted to your vehicle are
advanced airbags. This type of airbag is
designed to reduce airbag-related injuries to small-statured adults.
An occupancy sensor is built into the
front passenger seat. If the sensor detects
the weight of an infant or small child,
the system will automatically turn off the
passenger
Page 62 of 241

Curtain airbagsWARNING: Make sure that passengers
do not lean their heads against the
doors. In the event of a collision,
the curtain airbag deploys from the
headliner and may cause injury.WARNING: Never hang or attach
heavy objects from the grab handles
on the headliner. The hooks are for
lightweight garments (not for hard
objects).
The curtain airbags are designed to protect
the head in severe frontal crashes with a lateral component, severe side impacts, orrollovers. They do not inflate in all frontal
impacts and do not inflate alone in a rear
impact.
Note: Curtain airbags can help prevent
occupants from being thrown from the vehicle
in the event of a vehicle rollover.
Obstruction of Airbags
WARNING: Do not allow passengers to
obstruct the operation of the airbags
by placing feet, knees, any other part
of the body, or any other objects in
contact with, or in close proximity to,
an airbag module.WARNING: Do not attach or position
items on an airbag cover that could
interfere with the inflation of the
airbag or be propelled inside your
vehicle and injure occupants.WARNING: Never place your arm over
an airbag cover. A deploying airbag
can cause serious fractures or other
injuries.
For the airbags to correctly deploy,
obstructions cannot intervene between an
airbag and the occupant.
The following are examples of the type
of obstructions that could impede the
correct operation of the airbags or jeopardize
personal safety in the event of an airbag
deployment:
-Accessories attached to or obscuring an
airbag cover (for example, attached to
the roof lining, door pillar trim, or the
front seat backrests)
- Items of hand luggage, or other objects
placed on an airbag cover
- Feet, knees, or any other part of the
anatomy in contact with, or in close
proximity to, an airbag cover
- Head, arms, or any part of the anatomy
in contact with, or in close proximity to,
a seat-mounted side airbag
- Objects (such as items of clothing)
hanging from the handles attached to the headliner
- Objects (such as items of clothing or
cushions) draped over the part of the
front seat containing the airbag
- Seat covers/accessory seat covers over
a front seat; in particular, seat covers
that have not been designed for use
with seat-mounted side airbags. If
in doubt, consult your Lucid Service
Center .Seating & Safety Restraints49
