Safe Driving

For Safe Driving

The following pages explain your vehicle's safety features and how to use them
properly. The safety precautions below are ones that we consider to be among the
most important.

Important Safety Precautions

Always wear your seat belt

A seat belt is your best protection in all types of collisions. Airbags are designed to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. So even though your vehicle is equipped
with airbags, make sure you and your passengers always wear your seat belts, and
wear them properly.

Restrain all children

Children aged 12 and under should ride properly restrained in a back seat, not the
front seat. Infants and small children should be restrained in a child restraint system.
Larger children should use a booster seat and a lap/shoulder seat belt until they can
use the belt properly without a booster seat.

Be aware of airbag hazards

While airbags can save lives, they can cause serious or fatal injuries to occupants
who sit too close to them, or are not properly restrained. Infants, young children,
and short adults are at the greatest risk. Be sure to follow all instructions and
warnings in this manual.

Don't drink and drive

Alcohol and driving don't mix. Even one drink can reduce your ability to respond to
changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with every additional drink.
So don't drink and drive, and don't let your friends drink and drive, either.

Important Safety Precautions

Some countries prohibit the use of mobile phones
other than hands-free devices by the driver while
driving.

Important Safety Precautions

Safe Driving

Pay appropriate attention to the task of driving safely

Engaging in mobile phone conversation or other activities that keep you from paying
close attention to the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians could lead to a crash.
Remember, situations can change quickly, and only you can decide when it is safe to
divert some attention away from driving.

Control your speed

Excessive speed is a major factor in crash injuries and deaths. Generally, the higher
the speed, the greater the risk, but serious injuries can also occur at lower speeds.
Never drive faster than is safe for current conditions, regardless of the maximum
speed posted.

Keep your vehicle in safe condition

Having a tyre blowout or a mechanical failure can be extremely hazardous.
To reduce the possibility of such problems, check your tyre pressures and condition
frequently, and perform all regularly scheduled maintenance.

Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle

Children, pets and people needing assistance left unattended in the vehicle may be
injured if they activate one or more of the vehicle controls. They may also cause the
vehicle to move, resulting in a crash in which they and/or another person(s) can be
injured or killed. Also, depending on the ambient temperature, the temperature of
the interior may reach extreme levels, which can result in harm or death. Even if the
climate control system is on, never leave them in the vehicle unattended as the
climate control system can shut off at any time.

Your Vehicle’s Safety Features

The following checklist will help you take an active role in protecting yourself and
your passengers.

1

Your Vehicle’s Safety Features

Your vehicle is equipped with many features that
work together to help to protect you and your
passengers during a crash.

Some features do not require any action on your part.
These include a strong steel framework that forms a
safety cage around the passenger compartment,
front and rear crush zones, a collapsible steering
column, and tensioners that tighten the front and
rear seat belts in a sufficient crash.

However, you and your passengers cannot take full
advantage of these features unless you remain seated
in the correct position and always wear your seat
belts. In fact, some safety features can contribute to
injuries if they are not used properly.

Safe Driving

Safety Checklist

For the safety of you and your passengers, make a habit of checking these items
each time before you drive. Check if the charging cable is connected to the vehicle
and disconnect it if it is. The vehicle will not operate with the cable connected.

Adjust your seat to a position suitable for driving. Be sure the front seats are
adjusted as far to the rear as possible while allowing the driver to control the
vehicle. Sitting too close to a front airbag can result in serious or fatal injury in a
crash.

Seats

P. 227

Adjust head restraints to the proper position. Head restraints are most effective
when the centre of the head restraint aligns with the centre of your head. Taller
persons should adjust their head restraint to the highest position.

Adjusting the Front Head Restraints

P. 232

Always wear your seat belt, and make sure you wear it properly. Confirm that any
passengers are properly belted as well.

About Your Seat Belts

Seat belts are the single most effective safety device because they keep you
connected to the vehicle so that you can take advantage of many built-in safety
features. They also help to keep you from being thrown against the inside of the
vehicle, against any passengers, or out of the vehicle. When worn properly, seat
belts also keep your body properly positioned in a crash so that you can take full
advantage of the additional protection provided by the airbags.

In addition, seat belts help to protect you in almost every type of crash, including:

-

frontal impacts

-

side impacts

-

rear impacts

-

rollovers

About Your Seat Belts

WARNING:

Seat belts are designed to bear upon the

bony structure of the body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and
shoulders, as applicable; wearing the lap section of
the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided.

WARNING:

Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as

possible, consistent with comfort, to provide the
protection for which they have been designed. A
slack belt will greatly reduce the protection afforded
to the wearer.

WARNING:

Belts should not be worn with straps

twisted.

WARNING:

Each belt assembly must only be used by

one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the occupant’s lap.

3

WARNING

Not wearing a seat belt properly increases
the chance of serious injury or death in a
crash, even though your vehicle has
airbags.

Be sure you and your passengers always
wear seat belts and wear them properly.

Safe Driving

Lap/shoulder seat belts

All four seating positions are equipped with lap/shoulder seat belts with emergency
locking retractors. In normal driving the retractor lets you move freely while keeping
some tension on the belt. During a collision or sudden stop the retractor locks to
restrain your body.

The seat belt must be properly secured when using a front-facing child restraint
system.

About Your Seat Belts

If you extend the seat belt too quickly, it will lock in
place. If this happens, slightly retract the seat belt,
then extend it slowly.

Seat belts cannot completely protect you in every
crash. But in most cases, seat belts can reduce your
risk of serious injury.

Most countries require you to wear seat belts. Take
time to familiarise with the legal requirements of the
countries in which you will drive.

About Your Seat Belts

Continued

Safe Driving

Proper use of seat belts

Follow these guidelines for proper use:

All occupants should sit upright, well back in the seat, and remain in that position
for the duration of the trip. Slouching and leaning reduce the effectiveness of the
belt and can increase the chance of serious injury in a crash.

Never place the shoulder part of a lap/shoulder seat belt under your arm or
behind your back. This could cause very serious injuries in a crash.

Two people should never use the same seat belt. If they do, they could be very
seriously injured in a crash.

Do not put any accessories on the seat belts. Devices intended to improve comfort
or reposition the shoulder part of a seat belt can reduce the protective capability
and increase the chance of serious injury in a crash.

Front seats

The seat belt system includes an indicator on
the instrument panel to remind the driver or a
front passenger or both to fasten their seat
belts.
If you set the power mode to ON and a seat
belt is not fastened, the indicator will come
on.

The beeper will periodically sound and the
indicator will blink if you start driving without
fastening a seat belt.

Seat Belt Reminder

1

Seat Belt Reminder

The indicator will also come on if a front passenger
does not fasten their seat belt within six seconds after
the power mode is set to ON.

When no one is sitting in the front passenger’s seat,
the indicator will not come on and the beeper will not
sound.

If the indicator comes on or the beeper sounds with
no one sitting in the front passenger’s seat. Check if:

There is nothing heavy placed on the front
passenger seat.

The driver’s seat belt is fastened.

If the indicator does not light when the passenger is
seated and is not fastened, something may be
interfering with the occupant detection sensor.
Check if:

A cushion is placed on the seat.

The front passenger is not sitting properly.

If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle
checked by a dealer.

Rear seats

Your vehicle monitors rear seat belt use. A
driver information interface notifies you if any
of the rear seat belts are not used with a
seating position occupied.

The display appears when:

A rear door is opened and closed.

Any of the rear passengers fastened or
unfastened their seat belt.

The indicator blinks and beeper sounds if any
rear passenger’s seat belt is unfastened while
driving.

1

Seat Belt Reminder

When the luggage is loaded on the rear seats and the
sensor detects the weight, the warning indicator may
blink and the beeper may sound.

The sensor may not detect a passenger and not work
properly if a child or small person is sitting in or a
cushion is placed on the rear seats.

Do not fold down the seat-back with leaving luggage
on the rear seats.
The sensor may not work properly or be broken.

If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle
checked by a dealer.
