OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems. These include the front and rear seat belts for the driver and all passengers, the front airbags for both the driver and fr ont passenger , and the supplemental side curtain airbags for the driver and passengers seated next to a window . If y[...]

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 thr own from the vehicle. Seat belts r educe the possibility of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at[...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in a collision much worse. Y ou might suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out of part of the belt.

3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” W ARNING! • A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt[...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. Y ou are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together . 4. Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in th[...]

TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ire Pressur e Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pr essure based on the vehicle r ecom- mended cold placard pr essure. The tire pr essure will vary with temperatur e by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This means that when the outside temperature decr eases, the tire pr [...]

For example, your vehicle may have a recommended cold (parked for more than thr ee hours) placard pr essure of 30 psi (207 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tir e pressur e is 27 psi (186 kPa), a temperature dr op to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tir e pressur e to approximately 23 psi (158 kPa). This tir e pressu[...]

NOTE: • The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tir e care and maintenance or to provide warning of a tir e failure or condition. • The TPMS should not be used as a tire pr essure gauge while adjusting your tire pr essure. • Driving on a significantly under-inflated tir e causes the tire to over heat and can lead to tire failur e.
