GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

With Passenger Occupant
Classification System
To reduce the chance of injuries caused
by deployment of the passenger Air
Bag, the passenger occupant
classification sensor work as a part of
the supplementary restraint system.
This system deactivates the passenger
front and side Air Bags and also the
passenger seat belt pretensioner
system when the
OFFpassenger Air
Bag deactivation indicator light
illuminates.
When an infant or small child sits on the
passenger seat, the system shuts off
the passenger front and side Air Bags
and seat belt pretensioner system, so
make sure the
OFF passenger Air
Bag deactivation indicator light
illuminates. For more details, refer to
"Passenger occupant classification
sensor" in “Front Air Bags” for
additional information.
Note: A seat belt or child-restraint
system can become very hot in a
closed vehicle during warm weather. To
avoid burning yourself or a child, check
them before you or your child touches
them.
Warning!
Improper installation can lead to failure
of an infant or child restraint. It could come
loose in a collision. The child could be
badly injured or killed. Follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s directions exactly
when installing an infant or child restraint.
After a child restraint is installed in the
vehicle, do not move the vehicle seat
forward or rearward because it can loosen
the child restraint attachments. Remove
the child restraint before adjusting the
vehicle seat position. When the vehicle
seat has been adjusted, reinstall the child
restraint.
When your child restraint is not in use,
secure it in the vehicle with the seat belt or
LATCH anchorages, or remove it from the
vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the vehicle.
In a sudden stop or accident, it could strike
the occupants or seatbacks and cause
serious personal injury.
Child Restraint System
Types
In this Owner Handbook, explanation of
child restraint systems secured with
seat belts is provided for the following
three types of popular child-restraint
systems: infant seat, child seat, booster
seat.
Note:
Installation position is determined
by the type of child restraint system.
Always read the manufacturer's
instructions and this Owner Handbook
carefully.
Due to variations in the design of
child restraint systems, vehicle seats
and seat belts, not all child restraint
may fit all seating positions.
Before purchasing a child-restraint
system, it should be tested in the
specific vehicle seating position (or
positions) where it is intended to be
used. If a previously purchased
child-restraint system does not fit, you
may need to purchase a different one
that will.

Seats And Fabric Parts
Warning!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning
purposes. Many are potentially flammable,
and if used in closed areas they may cause
respiratory harm.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they
might explode. Aerosol cans must not be
exposed to a temperature exceeding
122°F (50°C). When the vehicle is exposed
to sunlight the internal temperature can
greatly exceed this value.
Caution!
Direct contact of air fresheners, insect
repellents,suntan lotions, or hand sanitizers
to the plastic, painted, or
decoratedsurfaces of the interior may
cause permanent damage. Wipe away
immediately.
Damage caused by these type of
products may notbe covered by your New

with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean it with a mild soap solution good
for upholstery and carpets.
Remove fresh spots immediately with a
fabric spot cleaner.
To keep the fabric looking clean and
fresh, take care of it. Otherwise its color
will be affected, it can be stained easily,
and its fire-resistance may be reduced.
Note: Use only recommended cleaners
and procedures. Others may affect
appearance and fire-resistance.
Caution!
Rubbing the interior side of the convertible
top vigorously with a stiff brush or cloth
may cause damage.
Interior Panels
When the interior panels need to be
cleaned, use soft material such as a
soft cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well and lightly wipe off dirt
from the surface.
If a panel requires further cleaning, wipe
dirt off using a soft cloth soaked in mild
detergent (about 5% solution) and wipe
off any remaining detergent using a
cloth soaked in clean water and wrung
out well.
Caution!
Do not wipe leather parts using alcohol,
chlorine bleach, or organic solvents such
as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise,
it may cause discoloration or stains.

Leather Parts(If — Equipped)
Caution!
Do not use Alcohol and Alcohol-based
and/or Keton based cleaning products to
clean leather seats, as damage to the seat
may result.
Remove dust and sand first using a
vacuum cleaner or other means, then
wipe dirt off using a soft cloth with a
leather cleaner or a soft cloth soaked in
mild soap.
Wipe off the remaining cleaner or soap
using a cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well.
Remove moisture with a dry, soft cloth
and allow the leather to further dry in a
well-ventilated, shaded area.
If the leather gets wet such as from
rain, also remove moisture and dry it as
soon as possible.
Note:
Because genuine leather is a natural
material, its surface is not uniform and
it may have natural scars, scratches,
and wrinkles.
To maintain the quality for as long
as possible, periodical maintenance,
about twice a year, is recommended.
Caution!
Sand and dust on the seat surface may
damage the overcoat of the genuine
leather surfaces and accelerate wear
.
Greasy soiling on genuine leather may
cause molding and stains.
Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth
may cause damage.
Do not wipe the leather using alcohol,
chlorine bleach, or organic solvents such
as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise,
it may cause discoloration or stains.
If the seats get wet, promptly remove
moisture with a dry cloth. Remaining
moisture on the surface may cause
deterioration such as hardening and
shrinkage.
Exposure to direct sunlight for long
periods may cause deterioration and
shrinkage. When parking the car under
direct sunlight for long periods, shade the
interior using sunshades.
Do not leave vinyl products on the seats
for long periods as they may affect the
leather quality and coloring. If the cabin
temperature becomes hot, the vinyl may
deteriorate and adhere to the genuine
leather.
