For maximum restraint pro-
tection, the seat belts must
always be fastened whenever
the vehicle is in motion.
Seat belts are the most effec-
tive when seatbacks are in theupright position.
Children at the age of 12 and
under must always be proper-
ly restrained in rear seats.
Never allow children to ride in
the front passenger's seat.
When a child at the age of 13
and over sits in the front pas-
senger's seat, he/she must be
properly fastened, and theseat should be positioned inthe rearmost position. (Continued)
WARNING

Safety system of your vehicle
(Continued)
Never fasten the shoulder
portion of the seat belt under
your arm or behind your back.
An improperly positioned
shoulder portion of the seat
belt may cause serious
injuries in a crash. The shoul-
der portion of the seat belt
should be positioned midway
over your shoulder across
your collarbone.
Never fasten a seat belt over
fragile objects. When there is
a sudden stop or impact, the
seat belt may be damaged.
Be careful not to twist seat
belts. A twisted seat belt can-
not properly protect the pas-
senger. In a collision, it may
even cut into you. Make surethe belt webbing is straightand untwisted.
Be careful not to damage the
seat belt webbing or hard-
ware. When the seat belt web-
bing or hardware is damaged,
immediately replace it.
Seat belts are designed to be
fastened upon the bony struc-
ture of the body, and should be
worn low across the front
pelvis, chest or shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap por-
tion of the seat belt across the
abdominal area must be avoid-ed. Seat belts should be adjusted
as firmly as possible, consis-
tent with comfort, to provide the
protection for which they aredesigned.
A slack seat belt greatly reduce
the protection afforded to the
passengers. Be careful not to contaminate
the webbing with polishes, oils
and chemicals, and particularly
battery acid.
Carefully clean it with mild soap
and water.(Continued)
WARNING (Continued) The seat belt should be
replaced, when the webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated,
or damaged. It is essential to
replace the entire assembly
after a severe impact even if
damage to the assembly is not
obvious. Seat belts should notbe fastened with straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must be
fastened over only one occu-
pant; it is dangerous to fasten a
seat belt over a child, who sitson an adult's laps.

belt warning light is turned ON for
approximately 6 seconds each time
you turn the ignition switch ON
regardless of belt fastening.
When the vehicle start to move with-
out fastening the seat belt with the
ignition switch ON, the seat belt
warning light flashes until it stops.
When the vehicle drives faster than
20km/h without fastening the seat
belt with the ignition switch is ON, the
seat belt warning chime will sound
for approximately 100 seconds.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user,

adjusting devices, or fail the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack to
be tightly fastened without
any slack.
When you fasten the seat belt,
be careful not to latch the seat
belt tap in the buckles of otherseats.
It is very dangerous, and you
may not be properly protected
by the seat belt.
Do not fasten or unfasten the seat belt in a repetitive man-
ner, while driving. This may
result in loss of control, and
an accident, causing death,
serious injury, or property
damage.(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
While fastening the seat belt, make sure that the seat belt is
not fastened over a hard or a
fragile object.
Make sure that there is noth-
ing in the buckle. If so, the
seat belt may not be securelyfastened.

belt anchor to one of 4 positions for
your comfort and safety. When the height of the seat belt anchor is too close to the occupant's
neck, the most effective protection is

tened across your chest and midway
over your shoulder nearest the door,
not over your neck.
To adjust the height of the seat belt
anchor, pull it up or pull it down to an
appropriate height.To raise up the seat belt anchor, pull
it up (1). To lower it down, pull it down
(3) while pressing the release button (2).

that the anchor is locked in
position at the appropriate
height. Never fasten the
shoulder portion across your
neck or face. Improperly posi-
tioned seat belts may cause
serious injury in an accident.
Failure to replace seat belts
after an accident may leave
you with damaged seat belts

tion in the event of another
collision, resulting in personal
injury or death. Immediately
replace your seat belts afteran accident.
WARNING B200A01NF
You should fasten the lap belt
as low as possible and snugly
across your hips, not across
your waist. When the lap belt is
located too high across your
waist, it may increase the
chance of injury in the event of
a collision. Both arms should
not be under or over the seat
belt. Rather, one should be over
and the other under, as shown
in the illustration. Never fastenthe seat belt under the arm
nearest the door.

sult a physician.
Pre-tensioner seat belt (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with driver'sand front passenger's pre-tensioner
seat belts. The purpose of the pre-
tensioner is to make sure that theseat belts tightly fits against the
occupant's body in certain frontal
collisions. The pre-tensioner seat
belt is activated in a crash where the
frontal colliding impact is severeenough. When the vehicle suddenly stops, or
when the occupant lean forward too
quickly, the seat belt retractor will
lock in position. In a certain frontalcollision, the pre-tensioner will acti-
vate and slightly retract the seat belt
to tightly restrain the occupant's
body.
When the system detects excessive
tension on the driver's or the frontpassenger's seat belt, the load lim-iter inside the pre-tensioner releases
some pressure on the affected seat
belt. (if equipped)
OEU034037
For your safety, make sure that the belt webbing is not loose or
twisted and always sit properly
on your seat.

Safety system of your vehicle
When the pre-tensioner seat beltis activated, there will be a loud
noise and fine dusts. These may
appear to be smoke, and be vis-
ible in the passenger compart-
ment. These are normal operat-
ing conditions, and does not
indicate a problem.
Although they are harmless sub- stances, the fine dusts may
cause skin irritation. These
should not be inhaled for a pro-
longed period of time.
Thoroughly wash all the
exposed skin areas after an
accident, when the pre-tension-
er seat belt was activated.
Because the sensor that acti- vates the SRS air bag is con-nected with the pre-tensioner
seat belt, the SRS air bag warn-

Seat belt precautionsLarger children
Children who are too large for child
restraint systems should always sit in
a rear seat and use the available
lap/shoulder belts. The lap belt
should be fastened as low and snug-
gly as possible across the hips.
Frequently check the belt tightness.
A child's squirming may move the
belt out of position. Children are
afforded the most safety in the event
of an accident when they are
restrained by a proper restraint sys-
tem in a rear seat. When a large child
(at the age of 13 and over) must beseated in the front seat, the child
should be securely restrained by the
available lap/shoulder belt, and theseat should be placed in the rear-
most position. Children at the age of
12 and under should be restrained
securely in a rear seat. NEVER placea child at the age of 12 and under ina front seat.
NEVER place a rear facing child seat
in the front seat of a vehicle.When the shoulder belt is fastened
slightly across the child's neck or
face, move the child closer to the
center of the vehicle. When the
shoulder belt is still fastened slightly
across their face or neck, they need
to be returned to a child restraint sys-tem.
All occupants of the vehicle
must and always fasten their
seat belts. Seat belts and childrestraints reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury in the
event of a collision or sudden
stop. Without a seat belt, occu-
pants may slide too close to a
deploying air bag, strike the
interior structure or be thrown
out of the vehicle. Properly
worn seat belts greatly reduce
these hazards.
Always follow the precautions
of this manual, about seat belts,
air bags and occupant seats.
WARNING
Shoulder belts on small chil- dren
Never fasten a shoulder even
slightly across a child's neck
or face, when the vehicle is inmotion.
When seat belts are improper-
ly fastened over children,there is a risk of death or seri-
ous injury.
