inflating airbag might force that
object toward a person. This

death. Secure objects away from
the area in which an airbag would
inflate. For more information, see
Where Are the Airbags? on
page 3-17andVehicle Load
Limits on page 9-9.

can strike and injure people in a
sudden stop or turn, or in a crash.
Remove or secure all items
before driving.
{Caution
Folding a seat with the safety
belts still fastened may cause
damage to the seat or the safety
belts. Always unbuckle the safety
belts and return them to their
normal stowed position before
folding a seat.

3-12 Seats and Restraints
To unlatch the belt, push the button
on the buckle. The belt should
return to its stowed position.
Before a door is closed, be sure the
safety belt is out of the way. If a
door is slammed against a safety
belt, damage can occur to both the
safety belt and the vehicle.
Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster
The vehicle has a shoulder belt
height adjuster for the driver.
Adjust the height so the shoulder
portion of the belt is on the shoulder
and not falling off of it. The beltshould be close to, but not
contacting, the neck. Improper
shoulder belt height adjustment
could reduce the effectiveness of
the safety belt in a crash. See
How
to Wear Safety Belts Properly on
page 3-9.
To adjust, pull out the adjustment
button (1) and move the height
adjuster (2) to the desired position
so the belt passes over the center of
the shoulder. The belt should be
away from your face and neck, but
not falling off your shoulder. Release the adjustment button (1) to
lock the shoulder belt height
adjuster into position.
After the height adjuster is set to the
desired position, make sure it is
locked in place. Try to move the
height adjuster up or down without
pulling out on the button (1).
Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has safety belt
pretensioners for front outboard
occupants. Although the safety belt
pretensioners cannot be seen, they
are part of the safety belt assembly.
They can help tighten the safety
belts during certain types of frontal
crashes if the threshold conditions
for pretensioner activation are met.
Safety belt pretensioners can also
help tighten the safety belts in a
side crash or rollover event.
When a pretensioner activates,
smoke is released and a loud noise
may be heard. This smoke is not
harmful and does not indicate a fire.
