If you will be carrying children t[...]

inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all times to reduce or pr event injuries. Lap/Shoulder Belts All seating positions in your vehicle have combination lap/shoulder belts. The belt webbing retractor is de- signed to lock during very sudden stops or collisions. This feature allows the shoulder part of the belt to m[...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • T wo people should never be belted into a single seat belt. People belted together can crash into one another in an accident, hurting one another badly . Never use a lap/shoulder belt or a lap belt for more than one person, no matter what their size. Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating Instructions 1. Enter the vehicle and close t[...]

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 that is loose will not protect you as well. In a sudden stop you could move too far forward, increasing the [...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • A shoulder belt placed behind 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 the la[...]

W ARNING! • A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of internal injury in a collision. The belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap belt as low as possible and keep it snug. • A twisted belt cannot do its job as well. In a collision, it could even cut into you. Be sure the be[...]

W ARNING! Using a seat belt extender when not needed can increase the risk of injury in a collision. Only use when the seat belt is not long enough when it is worn low and snug, and in the recommended seating positions. Remove and stow the seat belt extender when not needed. Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) This vehicle has airbags for both the[...]

The fr ont airbags have a multistage inflator design. This may allow the airbag to have different rates of inflation that are based on collision severity . If the vehicle is equipped with side airbags, they are located inside the driver and front passenger seats, and their covers are also labeled SRS. NOTE: Airbag covers may not be obvious in the i[...]

W ARNING! (Continued) • If your vehicle is equipped with side airbags, do not attach cupholders or any other objects on or around the door . The inflating side airbag could drive the objects into occupants, causing serious injury . • Do not cover or place items on the airbag covers. These items may cause serious injury during in- flation. • D[...]

Infants in rear facing child restraints should NEVER ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger airbag. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death to infants in that position. Children that are not big enough to pr operly wear the vehicle seat belt should be secured in the rear seat, in a child restraint or belt-positioning b[...]

W ARNING! • Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly . In some collisions, the airbags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have airbags. • Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag dep[...]

• The lap portion should be low on the hips and as snug as possible. • Check belt fit periodically . A child’s squirming or slouching can move the belt out of position. • If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle. Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an arm or behind the[...]

NOTE: If your child restraint seat is not LA TCH- compatible, install the restraint using the vehicle seat belts. W ARNING!
