361-1. For safe use
●The surface of the seats with the 
SRS side airbag is scratched, 
cracked, or otherwise damaged.
●The portion of the front pillars, rear 
pillars or roof side rail garnishes 
(padding) containing the SRS cur-
tain shield airbags inside is 
scratched, cracked, or otherwise 
damaged.
WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions 
regarding the SRS airbags.
Failure to do so may cause death 
or serious injury.
●The driver and all passengers in 
the vehicle must wear their seat 
belts properly.
The SRS airbags are supple-
mental devices t o be used with 
the seat belts.
●The SRS driver airbag deploys 
with considerable force, and 
can cause death or serious 
injury especially if the driver is 
very close to the airbag. The 
National Highway Traffic Safety 
Administration (NHTSA) 
advises:
Since the risk zone for the driver’s 
airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75 
mm) of inflation, placing yourself 
10 in. (250 mm) from your driver 
airbag provides you with a clear 
margin of safety. This distance is 
measured from the center of the 
steering wheel to your breast-
bone. If you sit less than 10 in. 
(250 mm) away now, you can 
change your driving position in 
several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as  far as you can while still reach-
ing the pedals comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the  seat.
Although vehicle designs vary, 
many drivers can achieve the 
10 in. (250 mm) distance, even 
with the driver seat all the way 
forward, simply by reclining the 
back of the seat somewhat. If 
reclining the back of your seat 
makes it hard to see the road, 
raise yourself by using a firm, 
non-slippery cushion, or raise 
the seat if your vehicle has that 
feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjust- able, tilt it downward. This 
points the airbag toward your 
chest instead of your head and 
neck.
The seat should be adjusted as 
recommended by NHTSA above, 
while still maintaining control of 
the foot pedals, steering wheel, 
and your view of the instrument 
panel controls. 

381-1. For safe use
WARNING
●Do not lean against the door, 
the roof side rail or the front, 
side and rear pillars.
●Do not allow anyone to kneel on 
the passenger seats toward the 
door or put their head or hands 
outside the vehicle.
●Do not attach anything to or 
lean anything against areas 
such as the dashboard, steering 
wheel pad and lower portion of 
the instrument panel.
These items can become pro-
jectiles when the SRS driver, 
front passenger and knee air-
bags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas 
such as a door, windshield, side 
windows, front or rear pillar, roof 
side rail and assist grip. (Except 
for the speed limit label 
P.338)
●Do not hang coat hangers or 
other hard objects on the coat 
hooks. All of these items could 
become projectiles and may 
cause death or serious injury, 
should the SRS curtain shield 
airbags deploy.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area 
where the SRS driver’s knee 
airbag will deploy, be sure to 
remove it.
●Do not use sea t accessories 
which cover the parts where the 
SRS side airbags and SRS seat 
cushion airbag inflate as they 
may interfere with inflation of 
the SRS airbags. Such acces-
sories may prevent the side air-
bags and seat cushion airbag 
from activating correctly, disable 
the system or cause the side 
airbags and seat cushion airbag 
to inflate accidentally, resulting 
in death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant 
levels of force to the area of the 
SRS airbag components or the 
front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS 
airbags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the compo-
nent parts immediately after the 
SRS airbags have deployed 
(inflated) as they may be hot. 

541-2. Child safety
and forth to ensure that it is 
installed securely. (P.55)
■Booster seat
1 If installing the child restraint 
system to the front passen-
ger seat is unavoidable, refer 
to P.49for front passenger 
seat adjustment.
2 High back type: If the head 
restraint interferes with your 
child restraint system, and 
the head restraint can be 
removed, remove the head 
restraint. ( P.110)
3 Place the child restraint sys-
tem on the seat facing the 
front of the vehicle.
Booster type
High back type
4 Sit the child in the child 
restraint system. Fit the seat  belt to the child restraint sys-
tem according to the manu-
facturer’s instructions and 
insert the plate into the 
buckle. Make sure that the 
belt is not twisted.
Check that the sh
oulder belt is cor-
rectly positioned  over the child’s 
shoulder and that the lap belt is as 
low as possible. ( P. 2 7 )
■Removing a child restraint 
system installed with a seat 
belt
Press the buckle release button 
and fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the 
child restraint system may spring 
up due to the rebo und of the seat 
cushion. Release the buckle while 
holding down the child restraint 
system.
Since the seat belt automatically 
reels itself, slowly return it to the 
stowing position.

■Exposure to radio fre-
quency signals
The Safety Connect system 
installed in your vehicle is a 
low-power radio transmitter and 
receiver. It receives and also 
sends out radio frequency (RF) 
signals.
In August 1996, the Federal 
Communications Commission 
(FCC) adopted RF exposure 
guidelines with safety levels for  mobile wireless phones. Those 
guidelines are consistent with 
the safety standards previously 
set by the following U.S. and 
international standards bodies.
ANSI (American National 
Standards Institute) C95.1 
[1992]
 NCRP (National Council on 
Radiation Protection and 
Measurement) Report 86 
[1986]
 ICNIRP (International Com-
mission on Non-Ionizing Radi-
ation Protection) [1996]
Those standards were based on 
comprehensive and periodic 
evaluations of the relevant sci-
entific literature. Over 120 scien-
tists, engineers, and physicians 
from universities, and govern-
ment health agencies and 
industries reviewed the avail-
able body of research to 
develop the ANSI Standard 
(C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect 
complies with the FCC guide-
lines in addition to those stan-
dards.
