2-2
You will read many safety precautions and recommendations throughout
this chapter, and throughout this man-
ual. The safety precautions in this chapter are among the most impor-tant.
Always wear your seat belt
A seatbelt is the best protection in all
types of accidents. An air bag isdesigned to supplement a seatbelt,
not replace it. So even though your
vehicle is equipped with air bag,
ALWAYS make sure you and your
passengers wear seatbelts in a prop-
er manner.
Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in
a rear seat, not the front seat. Infantsand small children should be
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint. Larger children should usea booster seat with the lap/shoulder
belt until they can use the seat belt
properly without a booster seat. ❇
The age requirements about the
child detrainment differ in each
country.
Air bag hazards
While air bags can save lives, they
can also cause serious or fatal
injuries to passengers, who sit tooclose to them, or who are not prop-
erly restrained. Infants, young chil-dren, and small adults are at the
greatest risk of being injured by an
inflating air bag. Follow all instruc-
tions and warnings in this manual.
Driver's distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious
and potentially deadly danger, espe-
cially for inexperienced drivers. Safety
should be the first concern, while driv-
ing. Drivers need to be aware of the
wide array of potential distractions,
such as drowsiness, reaching for
objects, eating, personal grooming,
other passengers, and using cellular
phones.
Drivers can become distracted when
they take their eyes and attention offthe road or their hands off the wheel,
caring for other activities to focus on
activities other than driving. To
reduce your risk of distraction and an
accident, follow the below instruc-tions:
• ALWAYS use your mobile devices (i.e., MP3 players, phones, naviga-
tion units, etc.), only when your vehi-
cle is safely parked or safelystopped.

Safety precautions
Adjust your seat, so that you can sit in
a safe, comfortable position. It plays
an important role in protecting the
driver and passengers, together withthe seat belts and air bags in an acci-dent.
Air bag
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury, as
the event the air bag inflates. Move
your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, while still main-
taining control of the vehicle.
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting the vehicle.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint system. Children who out-
grow a booster seat and adults must
fasten their seat belts.
Do not use a cushion thatreduces friction between the
seat and the passenger. The
passenger's hips may slide
under the lap portion of the seatbelt during an accident or a
sudden stop. Serious or fatal
internal injuries may resultbecause the seat belt cannot
properly operate.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-cautions:
•Adjust the driver’s seat in the
rearmost position, while main-
taining the ability to fully con-
trol the vehicle.
Hold the steering wheel with
both hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to
minimize the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms.
NEVER place anything or any-
one on the air bags.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
to adjust your seat belt:
NEVER use one seat belt to fasten more than one occu-pant.
Always sit in an upright posi-
tion with the lap portion of the
seat belt snug and low acrossthe hips.
NEVER allow children or small infants to ride on a pas-
senger's laps.

Seatback Pockets
Do not put heavy or sharp
objects in the seatback pockets.
In an accident they could come
loose from the pocket and
injure vehicle occupants.
WARNING

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)

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.

Pregnant women
The use of a seat belt is recom-
mended for pregnant women to
lessen the chance of injury in an
accident. When a seat belt is used,
the lap belt portion should be placed
as low and snugly as possible on the
hips, not across the abdomen. For
specific recommendations, consult a
physician.
Injured person
A seat belt should be fastened when
an injured person is transported.
When this is necessary, you should
consult a physician for recommenda-
tions.
One person per belt
Two people (including children)
should never be fastened by a single
seat belt. This may increase the
severity of injury in case of an acci-dent.
Do not lie down
To reduce the risk of injury in the
event of an accident and to guaran-
tee the maximum restraining effects,all passengers should sit in an
upright position when the vehicle is
in motion. A seat belt cannot provideproper protection, when the person
lies down in a rear seat or sit in areclined position in a front seat.
Pregnant women
Pregnant women must never
fasten the lap belt across the
abdomen area where they have
a baby. The belt may imply a
strong impact on their abdomenin an accident.
WARNING
Riding in a reclined seat
increases your risk of serious
or fatal injury in the event of a
collision or a sudden stop.
The protection of your restraint
system (seat belts and air bags)
is greatly compromised, when
your seat is reclined. Seat belts
must be snugly fastened across
your hips and chest to properly
operate. The more the seatback
is reclined, the more likely anoccupant will slide under the
lap belt, getting serious internal
injury. Or, the shoulder belt may
apply a strong impact on an
occupant's neck. Drivers and
passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, proper-
ly belted, and in an upright posi-tion.

Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise, leaving smoke and
powder inside the vehicle. 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 in breath-
ing due to the contact of your chestwith both the seat belt and the air
bag, as well as due to the inhaled
smoke and powder.Immediately
open the doors/windows after the
inflation of the air bag in order to
reduce discomfort and prevent a
prolonged exposure to the smoke
and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are
non-toxic, they may cause skin irrita-
tion (for eyes, nose and throat, etc).
In this case, immediately wash the
irritated area with cold water. Consult
a doctor, if the symptom persists.
Do not install a child restraint
on the front passenger seat
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag components inside thesteering wheel and/or the
instrument cluster become
extremely hot. To prevent injury,
do not touch the air bag compo-
nents, immediately after an air
bag inflates.

Never place a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the 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 passen-
ger’s seat either. If the front passen-
ger air bag inflates, it would cause
serious or fatal injuries to the child.
Air bag warning light
The purpose of the air bag warning
light on your instrument cluster is to
alert you of a potential problem with
your air bag - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS). The warn-
ing light illuminates for approximately
6 seconds, after turning ON the igni-
tion switch. Then, it goes OFF.
Check the system for the below symptoms:
The light does not briefly illumi-
nate, after turning ON the ignition
switch.
The light remains ON longer than approximately 6 seconds.
The light remains ON, when the vehicle is in motion.
Safety system of your vehicle

NEVER use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat pro-
tected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG
in front of it, DEATH or SERI-
OUS INJURY to the CHILD can
occur.
Never put a child restraint in
the front passenger’s seat. If
the front passenger air bag
inflates, it would cause seri-ous or fatal injuries.
WARNING

2-32
Safety system of your vehicle
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection than that
offered only by the seat belt systemin case of a frontal impact of suffi-
cient severity.Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every
time, everyone! Air bags inflate
with considerable force and in
the blink of an eye. Seat belts
help keep occupants in proper
position to obtain maximum
benefit from the air bag. Even
with air bags, improperly and
unbelted occupants may be
severely injured when the air
bag inflates. Always follow the
precautions about seat belts, air
bags and occupant safety, as
specified in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or fatal injuries and receive the
maximum safety benefit from
your restraint system:
Never install a child restraint
or a booster seat in a front
seat to sit a child.
ABC - Always Buckle Children
in a rear seat. It is the safest
place for children of any ages
to ride.

■Front passenger's air bag
(Continued)
Front air bags may injure
occupants, who improperly sit
in a front seat.
Locate your seat in the rear-
most position from the front
air bags, while still maintain-
ing control of the vehicle.
You and your passengers
should never sit or lean
unnecessarily close to the air
bags. Improperly positioned
drivers and passengers may
be severely injured by inflat-
ing air bags.
Never lean against the door or
center console - always sit inan upright position.

Why did not my air bag go off in a collision? (Inflation andnon-inflation conditions of the
air bag)
There are many types of acci-
dents in which the air bag
would not inflate to provide
additional protection.
These include rear impacts,
second or third collisions in
multiple impact accidents, as
well as low speed impacts.
(Continued)
A child restraint system must
never be installed in a front
seat. The infant or child may
be severely injured or killed
by a deploying air bag in anaccident.
Children at the age of 12 and
under must always be proper-
ly restrained in a rear seat.
Never allow children to ride in
a front passenger's seat.
When a child at the age of 13
and over sits in a front seat,
he or she must be properlyfastened and the seat shouldbe located in the rearmostposition.
❇
❇ The age requirements
about the child detrainment
differ in each country.
For the maximum protection
in all types of crashes, all
occupants including the driv-
er should always wear their
seat belts, regardless of the
air bag installment in theirseats.
(Continued)
(Continued)This is to minimizethe risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessar-
ily close to the air bag, when
the vehicle is in motion.
Sitting improperly or out of
position may result in serious
or fatal injury in a crash. Alloccupants should sit in anupright position with the seat-
back in an upright position,centered on the seat cushion
with their seat belt on, legs
comfortably extended and
their feet rested on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and
the ignition switch is turned
OFF.
The SRS air bag rapidly
inflates to provide Protection
to occupants in a crash. Whenan occupant is out of positionwithout fastening a seat belt,
the air bag may forcefully
strike the occupant, causing
serious or fatal injury.
