Headrest
The vehicle’s front and rear seats
have adjustable headrests. The head-
rests provide comfort for passengers,
but more impor tantly they are
designed to help protect passengers
from whiplash and other neck and
spinal injuries during an accident,
especially in a rear impact collision.
To p r e v e n t d a m a g e , N E V E R h i t o r
pull on the headrests.
NOTICE(Continued)
•
Adjust the headrests so the
middle of the headrest is at the
same height as the height of
the top of the eyes.
•NEVER adjust the headrest
position of the driver’s seat
when the vehicle is in motion.
•Adjust the headrest 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 headrest locks
into position after adjusting it.
OLF034072N
To r e d u c e t h e r i s k o f s e r i o u s
injury or death in an accident,
take the following precautions
when adjusting your headrests:
•Always properly adjust the
headrests for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.
•NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the headrest removed.
(Continued)
WA R N I N G
When there are no occupants in
the rear seats, adjust the height
of the headrests to the lowest

Forward-facing Child Restraint
System
A forward-facing Child Restraint
System provides restraint for the
child’s body with a harness. Keep chil-
dren 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 boost-
er 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 comfortably across the
upper thighs, not the stomach. The
shoulder belt should lie comfortably
across the shoulder and chest and
not across the neck or face. Children
under age 13 must always be proper-
ly restrained to minimise the risk of
injury in an accident, sudden stop or
sudden manoeuvre.
Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
OLF034033R
Before installing your Child
Restraint System always:
Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of
the Child Restraint System.
Failure to follow all warnings
and instructions could increase
the risk of the SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH if an accident occurs.
WA R N I N G
If the vehicle headrest prevents
proper installation of a Child
Restraint System, the headrest
of the respective seating posi-
tion should be readjusted or
entirely removed.

the anchorage or attachment
to come loose or break.
•Do not attach the top-tether to
anything other than the cor-
rect top-tether anchorage. It
may not work properly if
attached to something else.
•Child restraint anchorages

only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted Child
restraints.

they to be used for adult seat
belts, harnesses, or for attach-
ing other items or equipment

Before you start driving, adjust the
rearview mirror to centre on the view
through the rear window.
When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do
not spray glass cleaner directly on
the mirror as that may cause the
liquid cleaner to enter the mirror
housing.

Make sure your line of sight is
not obstructed. Do not place
objects in the rear seat, luggage
compartment, or behind the
rear headrests which could
interfere with your vision
through the rear window.
