Seat belt warning
As a reminder to the driver, the seat
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,
as it may fail the seat belt
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.

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.

How does the air bag operate?
Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
or START position.
Air bags instantly inflate in the event of a serious frontal collisionin order to help protect the occu-
pants from serious physical injury.
There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to inflate in accordance with the
severity of a collision and its direc-
tion. These two factors determinewhether the sensors produce an
electronic deployment/inflation sig-nal.
Air bag deployment depends on a number of factors, including a driv-
ing speed, an impact angle, a vehi-cle density/stiffness or a colliding
object, which your vehicle strikes
with in a collision. Those factorsare not limited to those mentioned
above. The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
observe the inflation of the air bags
during an accident.
It is more likely that you will simply see the deflated air bags hanging
out of the air-bag storage compart-ments after a collision.
In order to protect occupants in a severe collision, the air bags must
rapidly inflate. The speed of air baginflation is a consequence of the
extremely short colliding time as
well as the necessity to inflate the
air bag between the occupant and
the vehicle structure before the
occupant strikes with the vehicle
structure. This fast inflating speed
reduces the risk of serious or life-
threatening injury in a severe colli-
sion. This is the core part indesigning an air bag.
However, air bag inflation may also
cause injury, such as a facial abra-
sion, a bruise and a broken bones,
because the air bags expand with
a great deal of force.
There are certain circumstances
under which the air bag installed
in the steering wheel may cause
fatal injury, especially when the
occupant is positioned exces-
sively close to the steeringwheel.
To avoid severe personal
injury or death caused by
deploying air bags in a colli-
sion, the driver should sit in
the rearmost position from
the air bag installed in thesteering wheel (at least 250
mm (10 inches) away). The
front passengers should
always move their seats as far
back as possible and sit backin their seats.
Air bags instantly inflate in
the event of a collision. Thus,
passengers may be injured by
the inflating air bag, when
they are in an improper posi-tion.
Air bag inflation may cause
injury, such as facial/bodily
abrasions, injuries by broken
glasses, or skin burns.
