Seat belt precautions
WARNING
• All occupants of the vehicle must
wear their seat belts at all times.
Seat belts and child restraints re‐
duce the risk of serious or fatal in‐
juries for all occupants in the event
of a collision or sudden stop. With‐
out a seat belt, occupants could be
shifted too close to a deploying air
bag, strike the interior structure
or be thrown from the vehicle.
Properly worn seat belts greatly
reduce these hazards.
Always follow the precautions
about seat belts, air bags and oc‐
cupant safety contained in this
manual.
• Never wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop
or impact, the seat belt can dam‐
age it.
Infant or small child
You should be aware of the specific re‐
quirements in your country. Child
and/or infant seats must be properly
placed and installed in the rear seat.
For more information about the use of
these restraints, refer to Child re‐
straint system on page 3-26.
WARNING
Every person in your vehicle needs
to be properly restrained at all
times, including infants and children.
Never hold a child in your arms or lap
when riding in a vehicle. The violent
forces created during a crash will
tear the child from your arms and
throw the child against the interior.
Always use a child restraint appro‐
priate for your child's height and
weight.
NOTICE
Small children are best protected
from injury in an accident when
properly restrained in the rear seat

by a child restraint system that
meets the requirements of the
Safety Standards of your country.
Before buying any child restraint
system, make sure that it has a la‐
bel certifying that it meets Safety
Standards of your country. The re‐
straint must be appropriate for your
child's height and weight. Check the
label on the child restraint for this
information. Refer to Child restraint
system on page 3-26.
