Safety System
Head Restraint
The vehicle’s front and rear seats
have adjustable head restraints. The
head restraints provide comfort for
passengers, but more importantly they
are designed to help protect passengers
from whiplash and other neck and spinal
injuries during an accident, especially in
a rear impact collision.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death in an accident, take the following
precautions when adjusting your head
restraints:
[ Always properly adjust the head
restraints for all passengers BEFORE
starting the vehicle.
[ NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the head restraint removed or
reversed.
OHI039190N
[ Adjust the head restraints so the
middle of the head restraint is at the
same height as the height of the top
of the eyes.
[ NEVER adjust the head restraint
position of the driver’s seat when the
vehicle is in motion.
[ Adjust the head restraint as close to
the passenger’s head as possible. Do
not use a seat cushion that holds the
body away from the seatback.
[ Make sure the head restraint locks
into position after adjusting it.
WARNING
When sitting on the rear seat, do not
adjust the height of the head restraint
to the lowest position.
CAUTION
When there is no occupant in the rear
seats, adjust the height of the head
restraint to the lowest position. The
rear seat head restraint can reduce the
visibility of the rear area.
NOTICE
To prevent damage, NEVER hit or pull
on the head restraint.

SEAT BELTS
This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when using
seat belts.
Seat Belt Safety Precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and make
sure all passengers have fastened their
seat belts before starting any trip. Air
bags are designed to supplement the
seat belt as an additional safety device,
but they are not a substitute. Most states
require all occupants of a vehicle to wear
seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehicle is
moving. Take the following precautions
when adjusting and wearing seat belts:
[ Children under the age of 13 should
be properly restrained in the rear
seats.
[ Never allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat, unless the
air bag is deactivated. If a child is
seated move the seat as far back as
possible. And the child must always
be restrained in the seat properly.
[ NEVER allow an infant or child to be
carried on an occupant’s lap.
[ NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is moving.
[ Do not allow children to share a seat
or seat belt.
[ Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back.[ Never wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the seat belt can damage it.
[ Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will not
protect you properly in an accident.
[ Do not use a seat belt if the webbing
or hardware is damaged.
[ Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.
[ NEVER unfasten the seat belt
while driving. This may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
[ Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism, because any
materials in the buckle can cause the
seat belt not to be fastened securely.
[ No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate properly.
Always replace:
[ Frayed, contaminated, or damaged
webbing.
[ Damaged hardware.
[ The entire seat belt assembly after it
has been worn in an accident, even
if damage to webbing or assembly is
not apparent.

Forward-facing Child Restraint System
A forward-facing Child Restraint System
provides restraint for the child’s body
with a harness. Keep children in a
forward-facing Child Restraint System
with a harness until they reach the top
height or weight limit allowed by your
Child Restraint System’s manufacturer.
Once your child outgrows the forward-
facing Child Restraint System, your child
is ready for a booster seat.
Booster seats
A booster seat is a Child Restraint
System designed to improve the fit of
the vehicle’s seat belt system. A booster
seat positions the seat belt so that it
fits properly over the stronger parts of
your child’s body. Keep your children in
booster seats until they are big enough
to fit in a seat belt properly.
For a seat belt to fit properly, the lap belt
must lie comfortable across the upper
thighs, not the stomach. The shoulder
belt should lie comfortable across the
shoulder and chest and not across the
neck or face. Children under age 13
must always be properly restrained to
minimize the risk of injury in an accident,
sudden stop or sudden maneuver.
Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
WARNING
Before installing your Child Restraint
System always:
[ Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the
child restraint.
[ Read and follow the instructions
regarding Child Restraint Systems in
this manual.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions could increase the risk of
the SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH if an
accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle head restraint prevents
proper installation of a child seat as
described in the child seat system
manual, the head restraint of the
respective seating position shall be
readjusted or entirely removed.

Maintenance
Keep your garage dry
Don’t park your vehicle in a damp,
poorly ventilated garage. This creates
a favorable environment for corrosion.
This is particularly true if you wash your
vehicle in the garage or drive it into the
garage when it is still wet or covered with
snow, ice or mud. Even a heated garage
can contribute to corrosion unless it is
well ventilated so moisture is dispersed.
Keep paint and trim in good condition
Scratches or chips in the finish should
be covered with “touch-up” paint as
soon as possible to reduce the possibility
of corrosion. If bare metal is showing
through, the attention of a qualified body
and paint shop is recommended.
Bird droppings are highly corrosive and
may damage painted surfaces in just a
few hours. Always remove bird droppings
as soon as possible.Interior Care
Interior general precautions
Prevent caustic solutions such as
perfume and cosmetic oil, from
contacting the interior parts because
they may cause damage or discoloration.
If they do contact the interior parts,
wipe them off immediately. See the
instructions for the proper way to clean
vehicle interior surfaces.
NOTICE
[ Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electrical/
electronic components inside the
vehicle as this may damage them.
[ When cleaning leather products
(steering wheel, seats etc.), use
neutral detergents or low alcohol
content solutions. If you use high
alcohol content solutions or acid/
alkaline detergents, the color of the
leather may fade or the surface may
get stripped off.
