Positive retention floor mat
Position the floor mat in the
footwell. Place the mat eyelet over
the pointed end of the retention
post from the rear and rotate
forward to install. Adjust the floor
mat position to allow proper
operation of accelerator pedal,
brake pedal and clutch pedal (if
equipped).
To remove, lift the floor mat just
forward of the retention post and
rotate it rearward to disengage it

Keep vehicle doors and
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.
On hot days, the
temperature in the trunk or
vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people or
animals to these high
temperatures for even a short time
can cause heat-related injury or
death. Small children are
particularly at risk.

Seating and safety restraints
77
Important safety restraints
precautions
The use of safety belts helps to
restrain both driver and passenger
in case of a collision. In most states
and Canada, the law requires the
use of safety belts.
Always drive and ride with
your seatback upright and
the lap belt snug and low across
the hips.
Lock the doors of your
vehicle before driving to
lessen the risk of the door coming
open in a collision.
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from
shifting and causing damage to the
vehicle or harm to passengers.
To prevent the risk of injury,
make sure children sit where
they can be properly restrained.
SAFETY RESTRAINTS
Front and rear seat
occupants including
pregnant women, should wear
safety belts for optimum
protection in an accident.
Always transport children
12 years old and under in
the back seat and always use
appropriate child restraints.
