positions. The f ront seat belts are
also equipped with automatic seat

The f ront passenger is not sitting
properly.
The f ront passenger’s seat-back is

passenger does not f asten their seat
belt while driving, the beeper will
sound and the indicator will f lash
again at regular intervals.

passenger’s seat, or a small child is
riding there, the indicator will not
come on and the beeper will notsound.

sensors will detect rapid deceleration
and signal the control unit to
instantly inflate the side curtain
airbag on the driver’s or the
passenger’s side of the vehicle.If the impact is on the passenger’s

airbag will inflate even if there are no
occupants on that side of the vehicle.

Leaving children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and Canadian provinces,
and can be very hazardous.
For example, infants and small
childrenleftinavehicleonahot
day can die f rom heatstroke. A
child lef t alone with the key in the
ignition can accidentally set the
vehicle in motion, possibly injuring
themselves or others. Children
who play in vehicles can
accidentally get trapped inside.
Teach your children not to play in
or around vehicles. Know how to
operate the emergency trunk
opener and decide if your children
should be shown how to use this
feature(seepage ).
Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition
switch, and open the trunk, which
can lead to accidental injury or
death.
This can prevent children
f rom accidentally f alling out (see
page ).
An inf ant must be properly
restrained in a rear-f acing, reclining
child seat until the child reaches the
seat maker’s weight or height limit
for the seat and the child is at least
one year old.
Only a rear-f acing child seat provides
proper support f or a baby’s head,
neck, and back.
