You will read many safety precautions
and recommendations throughout
this chapter, and throughout this man-
ual. The safety precautions in this
chapter are among the most impor-
tant.

Always wear your seat belt

A seatbelt is the best protection in all
types of accidents. An air bag is
designed to supplement a seatbelt,
not replace it. So even though your
vehicle is equipped with air bag,
ALWAYS make sure you and your
passengers wear seatbelts in a prop-
er manner.

Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in
a rear seat, not the front seat. Infants
and small children should
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint. Larger children should use
a booster seat with the lap/shoulder
belt until they can use the seat belt
properly without a booster seat.
❇ The age requirements about the
child detrainment differ in each
country.

Air bag hazards

While air bags can save lives, they
can also cause serious or fatal
injuries to passengers, who sit too
close to them, or who are not prop-
erly restrained. Infants, young chil-
dren, and small adults are at the
greatest risk of being injured by an
inflating air bag. Follow all instruc-
tions and warnings in this manual.

Driver's distraction

Driver distraction presents a serious
and potentially deadly danger, espe-
cially for inexperienced drivers. Safety
be should be the first concern, while driv-
ing. Drivers need to be aware of the
wide array of potential distractions,
such as drowsiness, reaching for
objects, eating, personal grooming,
other passengers, and using cellular
phones.
Drivers can become distracted when
they take their eyes and attention off
the road or their hands off the wheel,
caring for other activities to focus on
activities other than driving. To
reduce your risk of distraction and an
accident, follow the below instruc-
tions:
• ALWAYS use your mobile devices
(i.e., MP3 players, phones, naviga-
tion units, etc.), only when your vehi-
cle is safely parked or safely
stopped.
