6. All occupants should always wear their lap and
shoulder belts properly.
7. The driver and front passenger seats should be
moved back as far as practical to allow the Advanced
Front Air Bags room to inflate.
8. Do not lean against the door or window. If your
vehicle has side air bags, and deployment occurs, the
side air bags will inflate forcefully into the space
between you and the door and you could be injured.
9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be
modified to accommodate a disabled person, con-
tact the Customer Center. Phone numbers are
provided under "If You Need Assistance."
WARNING!
Never place a rear-facing child re-
st
raint in front of an air bag.A deploying
Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag can cause
death or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a rear-facing child
restraint.
Only use rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle
with a rear seat.
SEAT BELT SYSTEMS
Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver, even
on short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor
driver and could cause a collision that includes you.
This can happen far away from home or on your own
street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they
can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen when people are
thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possi-
bility of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking
the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle
should be belted at all times.
ENHANCED SEAT BELT USE REMINDER
SYSTEM (BeltAlert)
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the driver
and outboard front passenger (if equipped with out-
board front passenger BeltAlert) to buckle their seat
belts. The feature is active whenever the ignition switch
is in the START or ON/RUN position. If the driver or
outboard front seat passenger is unbelted, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until
both outboard front seat belts are buckled.
