Adults
This part is only for people of adult size.
Be aware that there are special things to know about
safety belts and children. And there
are different
rules for smaller children and babies.
If a child will
be riding in your vehicle, see the part
of this
manual called “Children.” Follow those rules for
everyone’s protection.
First, you’ll want to know which restraint systems
your vehicle has.
We’ll start with the driver position.
Driver Position
This part describes the driver’s restraint system.
Lap-Shoulder Belt
The driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear
it properly.
1. Close and lock the door.
2. Adjust the seat (to see how, see “Seats” in the Index)
so you can sit up straight.
A
3.
4.
Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.
Don’t let it get twisted.
The shoulder belt may lock if you pull the belt across
you very quickly. If this happens, let the belt
go back
slightly to unlock it. Then pull the belt across you
more slowly.
Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it’s more
likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
To learn how to wear the right front passenger’s
safety belt properly, see “Driver Position” earlier in
this section.
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
way as the driver’s safety belt
-- except for one thing.
If you ever pull the shoulder portion of the belt out all
the way,
you will engage the child restraint locking
feature.
If this happens, just let the belt go back all
the way and start again.
Air Bag Systems
This part explains the frontal and side impact air
bag systems.
Your vehicle has air bags
-- a “Next Generation” frontal
air bag for the driver and another “Next Generation”
reduced-force frontal air bag for the right front
passenger. Your vehicle may also have side impact air
bags
-- a side impact air bag for the driver and another
side impact air bag for the right front passenger.
If your vehicle has
side impact
air bags, it
will say AIR BAG on
the air bag covering on
the side of the driver’s
and right front
passenger’s seatback closest to the door.

ignition, the doors and all
other locks. (Note that
there is no lock cylinder
for
the tnxnk or the
passenger’s door.)
Your vehicle comes with a spare key.
This key does not
have an immobilizer pellet in it, however, it will still
unlock your vehicle’s doors. Because of the key’s flat
shape, it can be stored
in your wallet. If
you’ve lost your keys
or need to have a new one
made, you will have to contact your dealer for the
correct key code.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of new features that
can help prevent theft.
You can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle
if you ever
lock your keys inside and you may have to
damage your vehicle to get
in. Be sure you
have extra keys.

A CAUTION:
-- - -
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers
-0 especially children 0- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When
a door is
locked, the inside handle won’t open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be
so obvious: You increase the
chance
of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren’t locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better
off whenever you drive your vehicle. There
are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside,
use your key or the remote keyless
entry transmitter. This will avoid setting
off the optional
theft-deterrent
alarrn.
From inside your vehicle,
slide the lock lever down to
lock the door.
To unlock the
door, slide the lock lever up.

the doors and turn on the ignition. Every time you

lever out of PARK (P), all of the doors
will lock. The doors will unlock every time
you stop the

your vehicle is not in
PARK (P), have that person use the manual or power
lock. When the door is closed again,
it will not lock
automatically. Use the manual or power lock to lock the
door again.
Programmable Automatic Door Locks
Each remote keyless entry transmitter supplied with
your vehicle can be programmed to suit each driver’s
door lock preference. The two remote keyless entry
transmitters are identified on the back with either a
“1”
or a “2”, which allows either driver to program their
own door locks.
The automatic door locks can be programmed to
lock when the shift lever is moved out of PARK (P)
and unlock when the shift lever is moved back into
PARK (P). With remote keyless entry, the door locks
can be programmed to remain locked whether or not the
shift lever is returned to PARK (P).
Press the power door lock switch
to lock or unlock all of
the doors at once.
