Feature of Seat Leather
Leather is made from the outer skinof an animal, which goes through a
special process to be available for
use. Since it is a natural substance,
each part differs in thickness or
density.
Wrinkles may appear as a natural
result of stretching and shrinking
depending on the temperature and
humidity.
The seat is made of stretchable fab- ric to improve comfort.
The parts contacting the body are curved and the side supporting
area is high which provides driving
comfort and stability.
Wrinkles may appear naturally from usage. It is not a fault of the product.

still maintaining comfortable
control of your vehicle. A dis-
tance of at least 10" from your
chest to the steering wheel is
recommended. Failure to do
so could result in air bag infla-
tion injuries to the driver.
Seat adjustment
Do not adjust the seat whilewearing seat belts. Moving the
seat forward will cause strong
pressure on the abdomen.
Do not place your hand near the seat bottom or seat track
while adjusting the seat. Your

er seat, outside rearview mirror,
HUD* (Head-Up Display), bright
ness of the instrument cluster illumi-
nation and steering wheel positions
with a simple button operation.
* : if equipped
By saving the desired positions into
the system memory, different drivers
can reposition the driver seat, out-
side rearview mirror and steering
wheel based upon their driving pref-
erence. If the battery is disconnect-
ed, the position memory will be lost
and the driving positions should be
restored in the system.Storing positions into memoryusing the buttons on the door

How does the air bag system
operate
Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
Engine Start/Stop button is turned
to the ON or engine is running.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of serious frontal or side col-
lision (if equipped with side air bag
or curtain air bag) in order to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.
There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal.
Air bag deployment depends on a number of complex factors includ-
ing vehicle speed, angles of impact
and the density and stiffness of the
vehicles or objects which your
vehicle hits in the collision. Though,
factors are 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
see the air bags inflate during an
accident. It is much more likely that
you will simply see the deflated air
bags hanging out of their storage
compartments after the collision.
In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of
air bag inflation is a consequence
of extremely short time in which a
collision occurs and the need to
get the air bag between the occu-
pant and the vehicle structures
before the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or life-
threatening injuries in a severe col-
lision and is thus a necessary part
of air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro-
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force. There are even circumstances
under which contact with the
steering wheel air bag can cause
fatal injuries, especially if the
occupant is positioned exces-
sively close to the steering
wheel.
Airbag inflation
Sit as far back as possible from
the steering wheel while still
maintaining comfortable con-
trol of the your vehicle. A dis-
tance of at least 10" from your
chest to the steering wheel is
recommended. Failure to do so
can result in airbag inflation
injuries to the driver.
