WARNING
(Continued)
• Infants and small children should
never be transported unless they are
properly restrained. Restraint sys-
tems for infants and small children
can be purchased locally and should
be used. Check that the system you
purchase meets applicable safety
standards. Read and follow all the
directions provided by the manufac-
turer.
• For child, if the seat belt irritates the
neck or face, use a child restraint
system appropriately for the child.
The seat belts of your vehicle are
principally designed for persons of
adult size.
• Avoid contamination of seat belt
webbing by polishes, oils, chemicals,
and particularly battery acid. Clean-
ing may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water.
• Do not insert any items such as coins
and clips into the seat belt buckles,
and be careful not to spill liquids into
these parts. If foreign materials get
into a seat belt buckle, the seat belt
may not work properly.
• All seatbacks should always be in an
upright position when driving, or seat
belt effectiveness may be reduced.
Seat belts are designed to offer maxi-
mum protection when seatbacks are
in the upright position.
Adjustment before Driving
WARNING
• When driving, do not adjust the
steering wheel (only adjustable
type with certain specifications),
the seat, the inside rearview mirror
or the outside rearview mirrors.
Otherwise, there is the risk of mis-
taken operation of the steering
wheel or reduced awareness of
what is in front of you, possibly
leading to an accident.
• Do not tilt the seatback further
back than necessary. Otherwise,
the head restraint and the seat belt
cannot function as intended.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
Correct Use of Seat Belt
80J014
• Adjust the seat to the correct position.
Sit your body fully into the seat.
• Make sure that the seat belt is not
twisted.
• Make sure that you place the lap portion
of the belt as low as possible across the
pelvis.
• The upper belt should rest on the area
midway between the shoulder and the
base of the neck.
• Confirm that the belt is not twisted in any
way, and remove any slack.
