Rear Seat Shoulder Belts (Dealer-Installed Accessory)
Except Convertible
When properly worn with a lap bell, a shoulder belt (available for rear outboard
seats) can give riders added protection. It can prevent or reduce impact with the inside of the vehicle by restraining the upper body in a collision, especially
in a frontal impact.
1 . To use the detachable
shoulder belt, before fastening the lap belt, place the knob on the shoulder belt end in the "keyhole" on the lap bell latch
plate. Tilt
the knob as needed to pass it through the slot. Pull the knob
firmly upward to seat it at the narrow end of the keyhole, then fasten the lap belt. (Do this in reverse when taking off the shoulder belt and putting it
away.)
If your vehicle is a hatchback style with the optional roll-up cargo cover, be
sure to route the shoulder belts ABOVE the cargo cover roller when the belts are used. Hold the Shoulder belts out to the side if it is necessary to extend or
retract the cargo cover
while the shoulder belts are in use. If a shoulder belt
is routed under the roller, it eQuid dislodge the roller during an accident
increasing
the risk of personal injury.
2. A detachable shoulder belt can be made shorter and longer in the same way as a center seat lap belt.
3. Place a clenched fist between the belt and your chest, as shown. The
detachable shoulder belt should have enough slack to put a fist's width
between your chest
and the belt.

Damaged wheels must be replaced. For example, replace wheels if they are
bent,
cracked,or heavily rusted, or if wheel nuts often become loose. Also
replace wheels which leak air (except some aluminum wheels which can be repaired-- see your authorized dealer). See the Caution under "Inspection and
Rotation"
in this section regarding the importance of obtaining good metal-to­metal contact when replacing or changing wheels.
Do not use bent wheels which have been straightened, and do not use inner
tubes in leaking wheels designed for tubeless tires. Such wheels may have
structural damage and could fail without warning. When replacing wheels for
any reason, the new wheels should be equal in load limit. diameter, width,
offset, and mounting configurations to those originally installed on your vehicle.
A wheel of the wrong size or type may adversely affect such things
as wheel
and bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer I odometer calibration, stopping
ability, headlight
aim, bumper height, vehicle ground clearance, and tire or tire
chain clearance to the body and chassis. Replacement with used wheels is not advised; they may have been treated harshly or have very high mileage, and
could fail without warning.
You can get wheels from your dealer.
Warranty
Tires are warranted by the tire manufa9turers. Warranty information is included
in the manufacturer's Warranty folder furnished With your vehicle.
