SEA TING Adjustable head restraints (if equipped) Y our vehicle’ s seats may be equipped with head restraints which are vertically adjustable. The purpose of these head restraints is to help limit head motion in the event of a rear collision.
Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap belt snug and low across the hips. Reclining the seatback can reduce the effectiveness of the seat’ s safety belt in the event of a collision. Lift handle to move seat forward or backward.
Reclining the seatback can reduce the effectiveness of the seat’ s safety belt in the event of a collision. The control is located on the outboard side of the seat cushion. Press front to raise or lower the front portion of the seat cushion. Press rear to raise or lower the rear portion of the seat cushion.
Using the manual lumbar support (if equipped) T urn the lumbar support control toward the front of vehicle to move the lumbar support forward for more direct support. T urn the lumbar support control toward the rear of vehicle to move the lumbar support back for less direct support.
T o return the seat to the upright position: • Press downward on the upper corner of the seatback and hold. • Pull the release handle upward to unlatch the seat. • Rotate the seatback upward until the seatback latches in the upright position. The seatback will click when it is locked into position.
All occupants of the vehicle, including the driver , should always properly wear their safety belts, even when an air bag SRS is provided. It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
After any vehicle collision, the safety belt system at all outboard seating positions (except driver , which has no “automatic locking retractor” feature) must be checked by a qualified technician to verify that the “automatic locking retractor” feature for child seats is still functioning properly .
The front and rear outboard safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts. The front passenger and rear seat outboard safety belts have two types of locking modes described b.
• Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt is extracted. • Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound.
Front safety belt height adjustment Y our vehicle has safety belt height adjustments for the driver and front passenger . Adjust the height of the shoulder belt so the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder . T o lower the shoulder belt height, push the button and slide the height adjuster down.
Safety belt warning light and indicator chime The seat belt warning light illuminates in the instrument cluster and a chime sounds to remind the occupants to fasten their safety belts. Conditions of operation If... Then... The driver’ s safety belt is not buckled before the ignition switch is turned to the ON position.
The following are reasons most often given for not wearing safety belts: (All statistics based on U.S. data) Reasons given... Consider ... 9 Crashes are rare events 9 36 700 crashes occur every day . The more we drive, the more we are exposed to 9 rare 9 events, even for good drivers.
Reasons given... Consider ... 9 I have an air bag 9 Air bags offer greater protection when used with safety belts. Frontal airbags are not designed to inflate in rear and side crashes or rollovers. 9 I’d rather be thrown clear 9 Not a good idea. People who are ejected are 40 times more likely to DIE.
1. T urn the ignition switch to the RUN (or ON) position. (DO NOT ST ART THE ENGINE) 2. W ait until the safety belt warning light turns off. (Approximately 1–2 minutes) • Steps 3–5 must be completed within 60 seconds or the procedure will have to be repeated.
recommends that all safety belt assemblies used in vehicles involved in a collision be replaced. However , if the collision was minor and a qualified technician finds that the belts do not show damage and continue to operate properly , they do not need to be replaced.
Important supplemental restraint system (SRS) precautions The supplemental restraint system is designed to work with the safety belt to help protect the driver and right front passenger from certain upper body injuries.
Do not put anything on or over the air bag module. Placing objects on or over the air bag inflation area may cause those objects to be propelled by the air bag into your face and torso causing serious injury . Do not attempt to service, repair , or modify the Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System or its fuses.
How does the air bag supplemental restraint system work? The air bag SRS is designed to activate when the vehicle sustains longitudinal deceleration sufficient to cause the sensors to close an electrical circuit that initiates air bag inflation.
Several air bag system components get hot after inflation. Do not touch them after inflation. If the air bag has deployed, the air bag will not function again and must be replaced immediately . If the air bag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently , have the SRS serviced at your dealership or by a qualified technician immediately . Unless serviced, the system may not function properly in the event of a collision.
How does the side air bag system work? The side air bag system consists of the following: • An inflatable nylon bag (air bag) with a gas generator concealed behind the outboard bolster of the driver and front passenger seatbacks. • A special seat cover designed to allow airbag deployment.
