Information about data
recorded by vehicle
control modules
Your vehicle is not equipped with a crash data re­
corder. This device is installed by some vehicle
manufacturers to record data about crashes so
that it can be analyzed later. Crash data record­
ers are also called "Event Data Recorders (EDR)".
In some legal jurisdictions, it is not permitted to
access or download data reco rded by pre-instal­
led crash
data recorders in order to evaluate a
crash without clear consent of the vehicle owner.
Your vehicle is not equipped with a crash data re­
corder. However it does contain a variety of elec­
tronic control modules for various vehicle sys­
tems such as engine function, exhaust treatment
or airbags and safety belts.
These electronic control modules record vehicle
data during normal driving for diagnosis and re­
pair
purposes. The recording capability of the
electronic control modules is limited to data only
·no sound is recorded. If the control module de·
tects a system malfunction or other change in
status, a very limited amount of data is recorded
for an extremely small period of time. Data that
is recorded in such a case may include vehicle
speed, driving direction, the load on the brakes
and head restraints and performance in the event
of an accident or other change in status. The
stored data can only be read or downloaded with
specia l devices .

What impairs driving safety?
Safe driving is directly related to the condition of
the vehicle, the driver as well as the driver 's abili­
ty to concentrate on the road without being dis­
tracted .
The driver is responsible for the safety of the ve­
h icle
and all of its occupants. If your ability to
drive is impaired, safety risks for everybody in the
veh icle increase and you also become a hazard to
everyone else on the road ¢.&,.Therefore :
... Do not let yourself be distracted by passengers
or by using a cellular telephone .
... NEVER drive when your driving ability is im­
paired (by medications, alcohol,
drugs, etc.).
... Observe all traffic laws, rules of the road and
speed limits and plain common sense.
... ALWAYS ad just you r speed to road, traffic and
weather cond itions.
... Take frequent breaks on long trips. Do not drive
for
more than two ho urs at a stretch.
... Do NOT drive when you are tired, under pres­
sure or when you are stressed.
A WARNING
Impaired dr iv ing safety increases the risk of
serious personal injury and death whenever a
vehicle is
being used.

.&. WARNING
Drivers who are unbelted, out of position or
too close to the airbag can be seriously in­
jured by an airbag as it unfolds. To help re­
duce the risk of serious personal injury:
- Always
adjust the driver's seat and the
steering wheel so that there are at least
10 in (25 cm) between your breastbone and
the steering wheel.
-Always adjust the driver's seat and the
steering wheel so that there are at least 4 in
(10 cm) between the knees and the lower
part of the instrument panel.
- Always hold
the steering wheel on the out­
side of the steering wheel rim with your
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o 'clock posi­
tions to help reduce the risk of personal in­
jury if the driver's airbag inflates.
- Never hold
the steering wheel at the
12 o'clock position or with your hands at
other positions inside the steering wheel
rim or on the steering wheel hub. Holding
the steering wheel the wrong way can cause
serious injuries to the hands, arms and head
if
the driver's airbag inflates
-
Pointing the steering wheel toward your
face
decreases the ability of the supplemen­
tal driver's airbag to protect you in a colli­
sion.
- Always
sit in an upright position and never
lean
against or place any part of your body
too close to the area where the airbags are
located.
- Before driving, always
adjust the front seats
properly and make sure that all passengers
are properly restrained.
- Never
adjust the seats while the vehicle is
moving. Your seat may move unexpectedly
and you could lose control of the vehicle .
- Never drive with
the backrest reclined or
tilted far back! The farther the backrests are
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the safety belt
and improper seating position .
- Children
must always ride in child seats

passenger seat Q page 188.
Proper seating position for the front
passenger
The proper front passenger seating position is
important for safe, relaxed driving.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
that you adjust the seat for the front passenger
to the following position:
... Adjust the angle of the seatback so that it is in
an upright position and your back comes in full
contact with it whenever the vehicle is moving.
... Keep both feet flat on the floor in front of the
front passenger seat.
"' Fasten and wear safety belts correctly
Qpage 184.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
front passenger's seat, see Q page 44.
A WARNING
personal injury:
-
Passengers must always sit in an upright po­
sition and never lean against or place any
part of their body too close to the area
where the airbags are located.
-
Passengers who are unbelted, out of posi­
tion or too close to the airbag can be seri­
ously injured by an airbag as it unfolds with
great force in the blink of an eye.
- Always
make sure that there are at least
10 in (25 cm) between the front passen­
ger's breastbone and the instrument panel.
- Always
make sure that there are at least 4 in
(10 cm) between the front passenger's
knees and the lower part of the instrument
panel.
- Each
passenger must always sit on a seat of
their own and properly fasten and wear the
safety belt belonging to that seat. ..,.
173

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Safe driving
- Before driving, always
adjust the front pas­
senger seat properly.
- Always keep
your feet on the floor in front
of the seat. Never rest them on the seat, in­
strument panel, out of the window, etc. The
airbag
system and safety belt will not be
able to protect you properly and can even in­
crease the risk of injury in a crash.
- Never drive with
the backrest reclined or
tilted far back! The farther the backrests are
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the safety belt
and improper seating position.
- Children
must alw ays ride in child seats
¢page 212. Special precautions apply
when installing a child seat on the front
passeng er seat¢ page 188.
Proper seating positions for passengers in
rear
seats
Rear seat passengers must sit upright with both
feet on the floor consistent with their physical
size
and be properly restrained whenever the ve­
hicle is in use.
To reduce the risk of injury caused by an incorrect
seating position in the event of a sudden braking
maneuver or an accident, your passengers on the
rear bench seat must always observe the follow­
ing:
.. Make sur e that the seatback is securely latched
in the upright position ¢ page 50.
.. Keep both feet flat in the footwell in front of
the rear seat .
.. Fasten and wear safety belts properly
¢ page 184.
• Make sure that children are always properly re­
strained in a child restraint that is appropriate
for their size and age ¢ page 212.
.&. WARNING
r-= ~
Passengers who are improperly seated on the
rear seat can be seriously injured in a crash.
-Each passenger must always sit on a seat of
their own and properly fasten and wear the
safety belt belonging to that seat.
174
-Safety belts only offer maximum protection
when the seatback is securely latched in the
upright position and the safety belts are
properly positioned on the body. By not sit­
ting upright, a rear seat passenger increases
the risk of personal injury from improperly
positioned
safety belts!
Examples of improper seating positions
The occupant restraint system can only reduce
the risk of injury if vehicle occupants are properly
seated.
Improper seating positions can cause serious in­
jury
or death. Safety belts can only work when
they are properly positioned on the body. Im­
proper seating positions reduce the effectiveness
of safety belts and will even increase th e risk of
injury and death by moving the safety belt to crit­
ical
areas of the body. Improper seating positions
also i
ncrease the risk of serious injury and death
when an airbag deploys and strikes an occupant
who is not in the proper seating position. A driver
is responsible for the safety of all vehicle occu·
pants and especially for children. Therefore:
.. Never allow anyone to assume an incorrect
seating position when the vehicle is being used
c:>A.
The following bulletins list only some sample po­
sitions that will increase the risk of serious injury
and
death. Our hope is that these examples will
make you more aware of seating positions that
are dangerous.
The refore, whe never th e ve hicle is mov ing :
-never stand up in the vehicle
- never
stand on the seats
-never kneel on the seats
-never ride with the seatback reclined
- never lie down on
the rear seat
-never lean up against the instrument panel
-never sit on the edge of the seat
- never sit sideways
- never lean
out the window
- never
put your feet out the window
- never
put your feet on the instrument panel

.&. WARNING
Improper seating positions increase the risk
of serious personal injury and death whenever
a vehicle is being used.
-Always make sure that all vehicle occupants
stay in a proper seating position and are
properly restrained whenever the vehicle is
being
used.
Driver and passenger
side footwell
Important safety instructions
A WARNING
Always make sure that the knee airbag can in­
flate without interference. Objects between
yourself and the airbag can increase the risk
of injury in an accident by interfering with the
way the airbag deploys or by being pushed in­
to you as the airbag deploys.
-
No persons (children) or animals should ride
in the footwell in front of the passenger
seat. If the airbag deploys, this can result in
serious or fatal injuries.
-
No objects of any kind should be carried in
the footwell area in front of the driver's or
passenger's seat. Bulky objects (shopping
bags, for example) can hamper or prevent
proper deployment of the airbag. Small ob­
jects can be thrown through the vehicle if
the airbag deploys and injure you or your
passengers.
Safe driving
Pedal area
Pedals
The pedals must always be free to move and
must never be interfered with by a floor mat or
any other object .
Make sure that all pedals move freely without in­
terference and that nothing prevents them from
returning to their original positions.
Only use floor mats that leave the pedal area free
and can be secured with floor mat fasteners.
If a brake circuit fails, increased brake pedal trav­
