The following pages provide
instructions on how to properly
protect the driver and other adult
occupants.
These instructions also apply to
children who have outgrown child
seats and are large enough to wear
lap/shoulder belts. (See page for
important additional guidelines on
how to properly protect larger
children.)
After everyone has entered the
vehicle, be sure the doors and
tailgate (including the hatch glass)
are closed.
Your vehicle has a door
monitor light on the
instrument panel to indicate when
any door is not tightly closed.
Your vehicle also has a
tailgate and hatch glass
open indicator light on the
instrument panel to indicate when
the tailgate or the hatch glass is not
tightly closed.
For safety, locking the doors reduces
the chance that a passenger,
especially a child, will open a door
while the vehicle is moving and
accidentally fall out. It also reduces
the chance of someone being thrown
out of the vehicle during a crash.
For security, locked doors can
prevent an outsider from
unexpectedly opening a door when
you come to a stop.
See page for how to lock the
doors.
Any driver who sits too close to the
steering wheel is at risk of being
seriously injured or killed by striking
the steering wheel, or from being
struck by an inflating front airbag
during a crash.
