Headrest
The driver's and front passenger's
seats are equipped with a headrest
for the occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides com-
fort for the driver and front passenger,
but also helps to protect the head and
neck in the event of a collision.
Forward and backward adjustment
The headrest may be adjusted for-
ward to 4 different positions by pulling
the headrest forward to the desired
detent. To adjust the headrest to
backwards position, press and hold
the release button (1), and adjust
position of the headrest. Adjust the
headrest so that it properly supports
the head and neck.
WARNING - Headrest
adjustment
For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the head-
rest should be adjusted so the
middle of the headrest is at the
same height as the center of
gravity of an occupant's head.
Generally, the center of gravity
of most people's head is simi-
lar with the height of the top of
their eyes.
Also adjust the headrest as
close to your head as possi-
ble. For this reason, the use of
a cushion that holds the body
away from the seatback is not
recommended.
Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed.
Severe injury to an occupant
may occur in the event of an
accident. Headrests may pro-
vide protection against severe
neck injuries when properly
adjusted.
Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver's seat
while the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING

belts may increase the risk of

Seat belts - Rear seat 3-point sys-tem with combination lockingretractor
To fasten your seat belt:
Combination retractor type seat belts
are installed in the rear seat positions
to help accommodate the installation
of child restraint systems. Although a
combination retractor is also installed
in the front passenger seat position, it
is strongly recommended that children
always be seated in the rear seat.
NEVER place any infant restraint sys-
tem in the front seat of the vehicle.
This type of seat belt combines the
features of both an emergency lock-
ing retractor seat belt and an auto-
matic locking retractor seat belt. To
fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the
retractor and insert the metal tab into
the buckle. There will be an audible
"click" when the tab locks into the
buckle. When not securing a child
restraint, the seat belt operates in the
same way as the driver's seat belt
(Emergency Locking Retractor Type).
It automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt portion of
the seat belt is adjusted manually so
that it fits snugly around your hips. When the seat belt is fully extended
from the retractor to allow the instal-
lation of a child restraint system, the
seat belt operation changes to allow
the belt to retract, but not to extend
(Automatic Locking Retractor Type).
Refer to “Using a child restraint sys-
tem” in this section.
To convert from the automatic lock-
ing feature to the emergency locking
operation mode, allow the unbuckled
seat belt to fully retract.
(Continued)
Position one arm under the
shoulder belt and the other
over the belt, as shown in the
illustration.
Always position the shoulder belt anchor into the locked
position at the appropriate
height.
Never position the shoulder belt across your neck or face.
