Airbags

Safety precautions

You can take steps to reduce the risk of

being injured by an inflating airbag. Sit-

ting too close to an airbag greatly

increases the risk of injury in the event

the airbag inflates. Move your seat as

far back as possible from front airbags,

whilst still maintaining control of the

vehicle.

Adjusting the seats so that you are sit-

ting in a safe, comfortable position

plays an important role in driver and

passenger safety together with the seat

belts and airbags in an accident.

WARNING

Do not use a cushion that reduces

friction between the seat and the

passenger. The passenger’s hips

may slide under the lap portion of

the seat belt during an accident or a

sudden stop. Serious or fatal inter-

nal injuries could result because the

seat belt cannot operate properly.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious injury

or death from an inflating airbag,

take the following precautions:

• Adjust the driver’s seat as far to

the rear as possible whilst main-

taining the ability to maintain full

control of the vehicle.

• Adjust the front passenger seat as

far to the rear as possible.

• Hold the steering wheel by the rim

with your hands at the 9 o’clock

and 3 o’clock positions to mini-

mise the risk of injuries to your

hands and arms.

• NEVER place anything or anyone

between the airbag.

• Do not allow the front passenger

to place feet or legs on the dash-

board to minimise the risk of leg

injuries.

Infants and small children must be

restrained in appropriate child restraint

systems. Children who have outgrown

a booster seat and adults must be

restrained using the seat belts.

WARNING

Take the following precautions when

adjusting your seat:

WARNING

Take the following precautions when

adjusting your seat belt:

• NEVER attempt to adjust the seat

whilst the vehicle is moving. The

seat could respond with unexpect-

ed movement and may cause loss

of vehicle control resulting in an

accident.

• NEVER use one seat belt for more

than one occupant.

• Always position the seatback

upright with the lap portion of the

seat belt snug and low across the

hips.

• Do not place anything under the

front seats. Loose objects in the

driver’s foot area could interfere

with the operation of the foot ped-

als, causing an accident.

• NEVER allow children or small

infants to ride in a passenger’s lap.

• Do not route the seat belt across

your neck, across sharp edges, or

reroute the shoulder strap away

from your body.

• Do not allow anything to interfere

with the normal position and prop-

er locking of the seatback.

• Do not place a cigarette lighter on

the floor or seat. When you oper-

ate the seat, gas may exit out of

the lighter causing a fire.

• Do not allow the seat belt to

become caught or jammed.

• Use extreme caution when picking

small objects trapped under the

seats or between the seat and the

centre console. Your hands might

be cut or injured by the sharp edg-

es of the seat mechanism.

Safety system

Reclining seatback

Seatback angle

Sitting in a reclined position when the

vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.

Even when buckled up, the protections

of your restraint system (seat belts and/

or airbags) is greatly reduced by reclin-

ing your seatback.

WARNING

NEVER ride with a reclined seatback

when the vehicle is moving.

OAC3039003R

Riding with a reclined seatback

increases your chance of serious or

fatal injuries in the event of a colli-

sion or sudden stop.

To recline the seatback:

1. Lean forward slightly and lift up the

seatback lever.

2. Carefully lean back on the seat and

adjust the seatback to the position

you desire.

3. Release the lever and make sure the

seatback is locked in place. (The

lever MUST return to its original

position for the seatback to lock.)

Drivers and passengers should

ALWAYS sit well back in their seats,

properly belted, and with the seat-

backs upright.

Seat belts must be snug against your

hips and chest to work properly. When

the seatback is reclined, the shoulder

belt cannot do its job because it will not

be snug against your chest. Instead, it

will be in front of you.

During an accident, you could be

thrown into the seat belt, causing neck

or other injuries.

The more the seatback is reclined, the

greater chance the passenger’s hips

will slide under the lap belt or the pas-

senger’s neck will strike the shoulder

belt.

1. Set the front seatback to the upright

position and if necessary, slide the

front seat forward.

2. Lower the rear head restraints to the

lowest position (if equipped with

adjustable head restraints).

Rear seats (if equipped)

The rear seatbacks can be folded to

facilitate carrying long items or to

increase the luggage capacity of the

vehicle.

WARNING

• Never allow passengers to sit on

top of the folded down seatback

whilst the vehicle is moving. This

is not a proper seating position

and no seat belts are available for

use. This could result in serious

injury or death in case of an acci-

dent or sudden stop.

• Objects carried on the folded down

seatback should not extend higher

than the top of the front seatbacks.

This could allow cargo to slide for-

ward and cause injury or damage

during sudden stops.

OAI3039010

3. Insert the rear lap/shoulder belt plate

into the holder on the side trim. It will

prevent the lap/shoulder belt from

interfering with the seatback when

folding.

WARNING

When you return the rear seatback

to its upright position after being

folded down:

Be careful not to damage the seat

belt webbing or buckle. Do not allow

the seat belt webbing or buckle to

get caught or pinched in the rear

seat. Ensure that the seatback is

completely locked into its upright

position by pushing on the top of the

seatback. Otherwise, in an accident

or sudden stop, the seat could fold

down and allow cargo to enter the

passenger compartment, which

could result in serious injury or

death.

back firmly until it clicks into place.

Make sure the seatback is locked in

place.

• Routing the seat belt webbing

through the rear seat belt guides

will help keep the seat belts from

being trapped behind or under the

seats.

When returning the rear seatbacks to

the upright position, remember to return

the rear shoulder belts to their proper

position.

Head restraint

WARNING

The vehicle’s front and rear seats have

adjustable head restraints. The head

restraints provide comfort for passen-

gers, but more importantly they are

designed to help protect passengers

from whiplash and other neck and spi-

nal injuries during an accident, espe-

cially in a rear impact collision.

Cargo

Cargo should always be secured to

prevent it from being thrown about

the vehicle in a collision and causing

injury to the vehicle occupants. Do

not place objects in the rear seats,

since they cannot be properly

secured and may hit the front seat

occupants in a collision.

WARNING

To help reduce the risk of serious

injury or death in an accident, take

the following precautions when

adjusting your head restraints:

WARNING

Cargo loading

Make sure the engine is off, the

Automated manual transmission is

in N (Neutral) or the Manual trans-

mission is in R (Reverse) or 1st, and

the parking brake is securely applied

whenever loading or unloading car-

go. Failure to take these steps may

allow the vehicle to move if the shift

lever is inadvertently moved to

another position.

• Always properly adjust the head

restraints for all passengers

BEFORE starting the vehicle.
