the darkness of the luggage compartment following brief
exposure to ambient light.
!WARNING:
1. Keep vehicle doors and the luggage compartment locked and keep keys out of a child’s reach.
Unsupervised children could lock themselves in an
open trunk and risk injury. Children should be taught
not to play in vehicles.
2. On hot days, the temperature in the luggage compartment and vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these high
temperatures for even a short time can cause death or
serious heat-related injuries, including brain damage.
Small children are particularly at risk.

Before Programming
Caution: When programming a
garage door opener or entry gate that
may require you to press and re-press
the hand-held transmitter (cycle),
unplug the device during the ‘cycling’
process to prevent possible motor
failure.
It is recommended that for best results,
fit a new battery to the hand-held
transmitter of the garage door opener
(or other device) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver
(located in the garage) is equipped with
an antenna, ensure that the antenna is
hanging straight down.

Occupant Protection
Seat Belts
The use of front and rear seat belts is
mandatory in most countries. Using seat
belts saves lives. They should be worn by
all occupants whenever the vehicle is in
use, for maximum protection.
Lap/shoulder inertia reel seat belts are
provided for both front occupants and
three rear seat positions.
The inertia operating mechanism of the
seat belts allows the wearers to move
their upper bodies to reach various
controls. The seat belts lock automatically
with accelerated body movement or in
the event of emergency braking.
The seat belt assemblies incorporate
additional safety devices. All have belt
pretensioners and the front belts also
have force limiters. These devices provide
increased protection in the event of a
severe frontal impact.
The pretensioners operate with the air
bags as part of the Advanced Restraints
Technology System (see page 3 - 14). All passenger seat belt mechanisms
incorporate an automatic locking device
to allow child seats to be secured safely.
Forchild safety seepage3-23.
Comfort belts are fitted to both individual
electrically operated rear seats. They are
also fitted to the outer seats only on the
electrically operated rear bench seat.
These belts incorporate a twin tension
facility. When the belt is buckled around
the occupant, a reduced tension is
applied to provide a more comfortable
fitting. When the belt is unfastened,
a higher tension is applied to allow it to
retract correctly.
Beltminder
The Beltminder feature is a supplemental
warning to the seat belt warning function
(see page 4 - 6). This feature provides
additional reminders to the driver that
the driver’s and/or front passenger’s seat
belt is unbuckled by intermittently
sounding a chime and illuminating the
seat belt warning lamp in the instrument
cluster.
Note:
Not all countries have the warning
chime. Front belt height adjustment
To adjust the front seat belt heights, press
the locking button and slide the
anchorage so that the seat belt webbing
passes over the shoulder without pulling
against the neck. Release the button and
check that the anchorage point is locked.
Always check the anchorage point after
the seat has been adjusted to ensure that
the belt is correctly positioned.

3 - 26 Before Driving
• Never modify the seat harness or buckles as this may affect the quick
release mechanism.
• Always secure your child correctly, even for a short journey.
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for harness adjustments.
Booster seats
If a booster seat is used, position the lap
section of the adult seat belt over the
child’s pelvis. The diagonal seat belt
should rest on the child’s shoulder,
not the neck.Check List – Non-LATCH Child
Restraints
Follow the check list each time a child
travels in the vehicle:
• Always attach the top tether when
installing a forward-facing child seat.
• Carefully follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
restraint system.
• Always use the appropriate child restraints and adjust harnesses for
every child, every trip.
• Avoid dressing a child in bulky clothing and do not place any objects
between the child and the restraint
system.
• No child seat is completely child- proof. Encourage your child not to
play with buckle or harness. • Regularly check the fit of your child
seat and replace seats or harnesses
that show signs of wear.
• Ensure that you have removed all slack from the adult seat belt and that
the automatic locking device is
activated.
• Never leave a child unsupervised in the vehicle.
• Activate the rear door child safety locks (see page 2 - 14).
• Ensure your child does not exit the vehicle from the side where there is
traffic.
• Set your child a good example – always wear your seat belt.

LATCH Child Restraint System
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) child seats
have two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that connect to
two anchor points provided at specific seating positions in your
vehicle.
This eliminates the need to use seat belts to secure this type of
child seat. If a forward-facing child seat is used it must also be
attached to the top tether anch or point located on the rear
shelf.
The LATCH restraints system uses two anchorage loops fixed to
the vehicle body for each rear outboard seat position, as shown
opposite. The anchorage loops are accessible through the gap
between the rear seat back and cushion.
The child seat, which must be sp ecifically designed for LATCH
system fitting, is clipped into the loops via rigid extendable bars
or a flexible tether strap. A quick release mechanism is usually
incorporated to allow easy removal of the child seat.
Always ensure that the child seat anchorage straps or legs and
the vehicle anchorage loops are kept clean and free of dirt.
Note: Forward-facing child seats using the LATCH system must
also be secured with a top tether (see page 3 - 29).

Memory Setting
This facility enables three different
comfort positions to be memorised and
recalled for each occupant:
• The driver’s seat, steering column, pedals and exterior rear view mirrors.
• Rear passenger seat positions when memory is fitted to these.
The key does not have to be in the
ignition switch to make seat, steering
column and pedal adjustments but is
required to be in th e switch to set the
memory. Setting a memorised position
To store a driver’s seat position in the
memory:
1. Adjust the seat, steering column,
pedals and exterior rear view mirrors
to the desired positions.
2. Insert a key into the ignition switch and leave in the OFF position.
3. Push memory button M and the red LED in the switchpack will
illuminate for a five second period.
4. While the red LED is illuminated, push button ‘1’, ‘2’ or ‘3’ to memorise the
configuration. The LED will go out and
a chime will indicate that the setting
procedure is complete.
By repeating these three steps and
pressing the unused buttons, two more
driving positions can be stored in the
memory.
To set a new driving position, adjust to
the desired position and perform steps 2
and 3. The previous memory will be
erased and the new position will be set.
The rear passenger’s seats can also be
memorised by repeating steps 2 and 3
above after adjusting the seat to the
desired position. Recalling a memorise
d position from
the door switchpack
Ensure the gear selector lever is in
position ‘P’.
Press and release the appropriate
memory button (‘1’, ‘2’ or ‘3’). The seat,
steering column, pedals and door mirrors
will move automatically to the
memorised position.
