2-3
Safety system of your vehicle02
- Loose objects
Any objects in the driver’s foot
area may interfere with pedal
operation, possibly causing an
accident. Do not place anything
under the driver’s seat.
WARNING
- Driver’s responsibility for pas-sengers
Riding in a seatback-reclined
seat may lead to serious or fatal
injury in an accident. When a
seatback is reclined in an acci-
dent, the occupant may slide
below the lap portion of the seat
belt and be applied with great
force on the unprotected
abdomen. Serious or fatal inter-
nal injuries may result. The driv-
er must advise passengers to
keep the seatback in an upright
position whenever the vehicle is
in motion.
WARNING
Do not place a seat cushion,
because it reduces friction
between a seat and a passenger.
The passenger may slide below
the lap portion of the seat belt in
an accident or a sudden stop.
Serious or fatal internal injuries
may result because the seat belt
does not normally operate.
WARNING
- Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust the seat position while the vehicle
is in motion. This may result in
loss of control and an acci-
dent, causing death, serious
injury, or property damage.
Do not allow anything to dis- turb the seatback position.
Any items stored behind a
seatback or any other items,
which disturb the proper
latching of a seatback, may
result in serious or fatal injury
in a sudden stop or collision.
Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the
lap portion of the seat belt
snug and low across the hips.
This is the best position to
protect you in case of an acci-
dent.
In order to avoid unnecessary and perhaps severe air bag
injuries, always sit as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel while comfortably
maintaining the control of the
vehicle. We recommend that
your chest be at least 10 inch-
es (250mm) away from the
steering wheel.
WARNING

Front seat adjustment
The front seat position can be adjust-
ed by pressing the control switches
on the doors. Before driving, adjust
the seat position, as desired, so as to
easily control the steering wheel,
pedals and instrument-panel but-
tons.
The power seat is operated byelectric motors. Pause the motor
operation after each seat-position
adjustment. Excessive motor
operation may damage the elec-
tric equipment.
The operation of a power seat consumes a large amount of elec-
tric power. To prevent unneces-
sary battery drain, when the
engine is turned OFF, do not
adjust the power seat longer than
necessary.
Do not press two power seat con- trol switches or more at the same
time. Doing so may fail the electric
motor or components.
NOTICE
2-4
Safety system of your vehicle
Do not adjust the seat while fastening a seat belt. Moving
the seat cushion forward may
apply strong pressure on the
abdomen.
While adjusting the seat posi- tion, use extreme caution not
to caught hands or other
objects inside the seat com-
ponents.
Do not leave a cigarette lighter on the floor mat or
seat. The operation of seat
adjustment may leak gas out
of the lighter and cause a fire.
Use extreme caution when picking small objects trapped
under the seats or between
the seat and the center con-
sole. Your hands might be cut
or injured by the sharp edges
of the seat mechanism.
WARNING
Do not adjust the seat position,
while fastening a seat belt.
Moving the seat cushion forward
may apply strong pressure on the
abdomen.
CAUTION
The power seat is operable,
even when the ignition is OFF.
Therefore, children should
never be left unattended in the
vehicle.
CAUTION

How the air bag system oper-
ates
Air bags activate (able to inflate ifnecessary) only when the Engine
Start/Stop Button is ON or in the
START position.
Air bags inflate in the event of a severe frontal or side collision in
order to protect occupants from
serious physical injury.
There is no single speed, at which air bags inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon a collision
severity and collision direction.
These two factors mainly deter-
mine whether the sensors produce
an electronic deployment/inflation
signal.
Air bag deployment depends on a number of factors, including a driv-
ing speed, impact angles, vehicle
density, vehicle stiffness or an
object, which your vehicle collides
with. Beyond those mentioned
above, there are more determining
factors.
The front air bags completely inflates and then deflates in an
instant. It is virtually impossible for
you to see the air bags inflating
during an accident.
It is much more likely that you sim-
ply see the deflated air bags hang-
ing out of their storage compart-
ments after the collision.
To help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags must
inflate rapidly. The speed of air bag
inflation is extremely fast, because
a collision instantly requires to
inflate the air bag between an
occupant and the vehicle struc-
tures, before the occupant strikes
with the vehicle interior. This instant inflation reduces the
risk of serious or life-threatening
injury in a severe collision. So, this
fast speed is a necessary part of
air bag design.
However, air bag inflation may also
cause injury, such as facial abra-
sions, bruises and broken bones,
because the inflation speed also
causes the air bags to expand with
a great deal of force.
There are even some circum- stances, under which the air bag
may cause fatal injury, especial-
ly when an occupant is posi-
tioned excessively close to the
air bag.
2-43
Safety system of your vehicle02
To avoid severe personalinjury or death caused by
deploying air bags in a colli-
sion, the driver should sit as
far back from the steering
wheel air bag as possible (at
least 10 inches (250 mm)
away). The front passenger
should always sit in the rear-
most position.
Air bags instantly inflate in the event of a collision, and an
occupant may be injured by
the expanding force, when he
or she sits in an inappropriate
position.
Air bag inflation may cause injury, normally including
facial or bodily abrasions,
injuries from broken glasses
or burns by the air bag infla-
tion gas.
WARNING

Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they pro-
duce not only a loud noise, but also
smoke and powder inside the vehi-
cle. This is normal and is a result of
the ignition of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort, while
breathing due to the contact of your
chest with both the seat belt and the
air bag, as well as from inhaled
smoke and powder.Open your
doors and windows as soon as
possible after air bag deployment
in order to reduce your discomfort
and prevent prolonged exposure
to the smoke and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are
non-toxic, they may cause skin irrita-
tion (i.e. eyes, nose and throat). In
this case, immediately wash your
skin with cold water and consult a
doctor if the symptom persists.
Do not install a child restraint in the front passenger's seat.
Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. When an air bag deploys, it
would impact the rear-facing child
restraint, causing serious or fatal
injury. In addition, do not place front-
facing child restraints in the front
passenger’s seat, either. When the
front passenger air bag inflates, it
may cause serious or fatal injury to
the child.
2-44
Safety system of your vehicle
After the air bag inflation, air-
bag related components, which
are on the steering wheel,
instrument panel, roof rails
above doors and the front seat-
backs, are very hot. To prevent
injury, do not touch those com-
ponents inside the air bag stor-
age right after air bag inflation.
WARNING
1JBH3051
Extremely Hazard! Do not place a rear-facing child
restraint in a seat protected
by an air bag!
Never install a child restraint in the front passenger’s seat.
When the front passenger air
bag inflates, it may cause seri-
ous or fatal injury.
