Safety information
WARNING
Use of a safety belt to buckle
more than one person will poten-
tially defeat the ability of the
safety belt to serve its protective
function. There is a risk of injuries
or danger to life. Do not allow
more than one person to wear a
single safety belt. Infants and chil-
dren are not allowed on an occu-
pant's lap, but must be
transported and secured in desig-
nated child restraint systems.
WARNING
The efficacy of safety gear, includ-
ing safety belts, c
an be limited or
lost when safety belts are fas-
tened incorrectly. An incorrectly
fastened safety belt can cause
additional injuries, for instance in
the event of an accident or during
braking and evasive maneuvers.
There is a risk o f injuries or dan-
ger to life. Make sure that all
occupants are wearing safety
belts correctly.

ing safety belts, may not be fully

posture not only helps reduce
fatigue while driving, but helps
ensure that the occupant protec-
tion devices, such as the seat
belts and airbags, will operate
correctly in a collision, reducing
the impact to the occupants.The most basic occupant pro-
tection device is the seat belt.
The airbags are designed to
supplement the seat belts, not
be used in place of them. Wear-
ing the seat belt correctly
ensures that the occupants are
securely held in the seats and
helps prevent them from con-
tacting interior parts or being
thrown from the vehicle in a col-
lision. Therefore, it is necessary
for all occupants to wear their
seat belt. If a seat belt is worn
improperly, its effectiveness as
an occupant protection device
will be severely reduced. Pay
attention to the following to
ensure the correct driving pos-
ture and use of the seat belts.

tions and the operating and
safety information of the child

cause child restraint systems and
their components to become very
hot. Persons may sustain burn
injuries when touching the hot

injury. Do not e
xpose the child
restraint system to direct sunlight
or cover where necessary. If nec-
essary, let the ch ild restraint sys-

belt is located in front of the belt
guide of the child seat, move the
front passenger seat carefully
