4. Push the latch plate into the buckleuntil it clicks.
Position the release button on the
buckle, away from the child
restraint, so that the seat belt
could be quickly unbuckled if
necessary.5. Pull the shoulder belt all the wayout of the retractor to set the lock.
When the retractor lock is set, the
belt can be tightened but not
pulled out of the retractor.
It may be necessary to slide the
adjustable stop along the webbing
toward the outboard anchor to
fully tighten the seat belt around
the child restraint. While a child
restraint is installed, the adjustable
stop should be positioned on the
portion of the webbing that does
not interact with the child
restraint.6. To tighten the belt, push down onthe child restraint, pull the
shoulder portion of the belt to
tighten the lap portion of the belt,
and feed the shoulder belt back
into the retractor. When installing
a forward-facing child restraint, it
may be helpful to use your knee to
push down on the child restraint as
you tighten the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of the
retractor to make sure the retractor
is locked. If the retractor is not
locked, repeat Steps 5 and 6.

7. Before placing a child in the childrestraint, make sure it is securely
held in place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat belt path
and attempt to move it side to side
and back and forth. When the child
restraint is properly installed, there
should be no more than
2.5 cm (1 in) of movement.
If the airbags are off, the OFF
indicator in the passenger airbag
status indicator will come on and stay
on when the vehicle is started.
If a child restraint has been installed
and the ON indicator is lit, see “If the
On Indicator Is Lit for a Child
Restraint ”under Passenger Sensing
System 053.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt and let
it return to the stowed position.

204 DRIVING AND OPERATING
.Become familiar with vehicle
features before driving, such as
programming favorite radio stations
and adjusting climate control and
seat settings. Program all trip
information into any navigation
device prior to driving.
.Wait until the vehicle is parked to
retrieve items that have fallen to
the floor.
.Stop or park the vehicle to tend to
children.
.Keep pets in an appropriate carrier
or restraint.
.Avoid stressful conversations while
driving, whether with a passenger or
on a cell phone.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the road too
long or too often could cause a
crash resulting in injury or death.
Focus your attention on driving.
Refer to the infotainment section for
more information on using that
system and the navigation system,
if equipped, including pairing and
using a cell phone.
Defensive Driving
Defensive driving means “always
expect the unexpected.” The first step
in driving defensively is to wear the
seat belt. See Seat Belts040.
.Assume that other road users
(pedestrians, bicyclists, and other
drivers) are going to be careless and
make mistakes. Anticipate what
they may do and be ready.
.Allow enough following distance
between you and the driver in front
of you.
.Focus on the task of driving.
Impaired Driving
Death and injury associated with
impaired driving is a global tragedy.
{Warning
Drinking alcohol or taking drugs
and then driving is very dangerous.
Your reflexes, perceptions,
attentiveness, and judgment can be
affected by even a small amount of
alcohol or drugs. You can have a
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
serious—or even fatal —collision
if you drive after drinking or taking
drugs.
Do not drive while under the
influence of alcohol or drugs,
or ride with a driver who has been
drinking or is impaired by drugs.
Find alternate transportation home;
or if you are with a group, designate
a driver who will remain sober.
Control of a Vehicle
Braking, steering, and accelerating are
important factors in helping to control
a vehicle while driving.
Braking
Braking action involves perception
time and reaction time. Deciding to
push the brake pedal is perception
time. Actually doing it is
reaction time.
Average driver reaction time is about
three-quarters of a second. In that
time, a vehicle moving at 100 km/h

DRIVING AND OPERATING 217
Example 3
1.Vehicle Capacity Weight for
Example 3 = 453 kg
(1,000 lbs).
2.Subtract Occupant Weight @
91 kg (200 lbs) × 5 = 453 kg
(1,000 lbs).
3.Available Cargo Weight =
0 kg (0 lbs).
Refer to the vehicle's Tire and
Loading Information label for
specific information about the
vehicle's capacity weight and
seating positions. The combined weight of the driver, passengers,
and cargo should never exceed the
vehicle's capacity weight.
Certification Label
Label Example
A vehicle-specific Certification
label is attached to the vehicle's
center pillar (B-pillar). The label
may show the gross weight
capacity of the vehicle, called the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR). The GVWR includes the
weight of the vehicle, all
occupants, fuel, and cargo.
{Warning
Things inside the vehicle can
strike and injure people in a
sudden stop or turn, or in a
crash.
.Put things in the cargo area
of the vehicle. In the cargo
area, put them as far forward
as possible. Try to spread the
weight evenly.
.Never stack heavier things,
like suitcases, inside the
vehicle so that some of them
are above the tops of the
seats.
.Do not leave an unsecured
child restraint in the vehicle.
.Secure loose items in the
vehicle.
.Do not leave a seat folded
down unless needed.
