Pull completely up on thelever until it stops, and lean back to position theseatback to where you want it. Release the lever to lockthe seatback into place.1-3
{CAUTION:Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicleis in motion can be dangerous. Even if youbuckle up, your safety belts can’t do their jobwhen you’re reclined like this.The shoulder belt can’t do its job because itwon’t be against your body. Instead, it will bein front of you. In a crash you could go into it,receiving neck or other injuries.But do not have a seatback reclined if your vehicle ismoving.1-4The lap belt can’t do its job either. In a crashthe belt could go up over your abdomen.The belt forces would be there, not at yourpelvic bones. This could cause serious internalinjuries.For proper protection when the vehicle is inmotion, have the seatback upright. Then sitwell back in the seat and wear your safety beltproperly.
Seatback LatchesTo unlock, lift up on the latch and push the seatbackrearward. When you return the seatback to its originalposition, make sure the seatback is locked in place.{CAUTION:If the seatback isn’t locked, it could moveforward in a sudden stop or crash. That couldcause injury to the person sitting there. Alwayspress rearward on the seatback to be sure it islocked.Both seatbacks fold forward to give you access to therear area. To fold a seatback forward, lift this latch,which is located on top of the backside of the seat, andpull the seatback forward. The seatback will lockdown in this position.1-5
Sport SeatSafety BeltsSafety Belts: They Are for EveryoneThis part of the manual tells you how to use safetybelts properly. It also tells you some things you shouldnot do with safety belts.{CAUTION:If your vehicle has this feature, there are three othercontrols that help you change the shape of the seat inaddition to the power seat control. There are two lumbarsupports for the middle (A) and lower (B) back. There isalso a side bolster control (C) that adjusts the sides of theseat around you to give you more lateral support.For lumbar support, move each control (A) and (B)forward to inflate or rearward to deflate.Move the side bolster control (C) up for more sidesupport and down for less support.1-6Don’t let anyone ride where he or she can’twear a safety belt properly. If you are in acrash and you’re not wearing a safety belt,your injuries can be much worse. You can hitthings inside the vehicle or be ejected from it.You can be seriously injured or killed. In thesame crash, you might not be if you arebuckled up. Always fasten your safety belt,and check that your passenger’s belt isfastened properly too.
{CAUTION:It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargoarea, inside or outside of a vehicle. In acollision, people riding in these areas are morelikely to be seriously injured or killed. Do notallow people to ride in any area of your vehiclethat is not equipped with seats and safetybelts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in aseat and using a safety belt properly.Your vehicle has a lightthat comes on as areminder to buckle up.See Safety Belt ReminderLight on page 3-34.In most states and all Canadian provinces, the law saysto wear safety belts. Here’s why: They work.You never know if you’ll be in a crash. If you do have acrash, you don’t know if it will be a bad one.A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be soserious that even buckled up a person wouldn’t survive.But most crashes are in between. In many of them,people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walkaway. Without belts they could have been badly hurtor killed.After more than 30 years of safety belts in vehicles,the facts are clear. In most crashes buckling up doesmatter. a lot!1-7
Why Safety Belts WorkWhen you ride in or on anything, you go as fast asit goes.Put someone on it.Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it’s just a seat onwheels.1-8
Get it up to speed. Then stop the vehicle. The riderdoesn’t stop.The person keeps going until stopped by something.In a real vehicle, it could be the windshield.1-9
or the instrument panel.or the safety belts!With safety belts, you slow down as the vehicle does.You get more time to stop. You stop over more distance,and your strongest bones take the forces. That’s whysafety belts make such good sense.1-10
Questions and Answers AboutSafety BeltsQ: Won’t I be trapped in the vehicle after anaccident if I’m wearing a safety belt?A:You could be — whether you’re wearing a safetybelt or not. But you can unbuckle a safety belt,even if you’re upside down. And your chanceof being conscious during and after an accident,so you can unbuckle and get out, is much greater ifyou are belted.Q: If my vehicle has air bags, why should I have towear safety belts?A:Air bags are in many vehicles today and will be inmost of them in the future. But they aresupplemental systems only; so they work withsafety belts — not instead of them. Every air bagsystem ever offered for sale has required the use ofsafety belts. Even if you’re in a vehicle that has airbags, you still have to buckle up to get the mostprotection. That’s true not only in frontal collisions,but especially in side and other collisions.Q: If I’m a good driver, and I never drive far fromhome, why should I wear safety belts?A:You may be an excellent driver, but if you’re in anaccident — even one that isn’t your fault — youand your passenger can be hurt. Being a gooddriver doesn’t protect you from things beyond yourcontrol, such as bad drivers.Most accidents occur within 25 miles (40 km) ofhome. And the greatest number of serious injuriesand deaths occur at speeds of less than 40 mph(65 km/h).Safety belts are for everyone.How to Wear Safety Belts ProperlyThis part is only for people of adult size.Be aware that there are special things to know aboutsafety belts and children. And there are differentrules for smaller children and babies. If a child will beriding in your vehicle, see Older Children on page 1-19or Infants and Young Children on page 1-22. Followthose rules for everyone’s protection.First, you’ll want to know which restraint systems yourvehicle has.We’ll start with the driver position.1-11
Driver PositionThis part describes the driver’s restraint system.Lap-Shoulder BeltThe driver has a lap-shoulder belt. Here’s how to wear itproperly.1. Close and lock the door.2. Adjust the seat so you can sit up straight. To seehow, see “Seats” in the Index.1-123. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you.Don’t let it get twisted.The lap-shoulder belt may lock if you pull the beltacross you very quickly. If this happens, let the beltgo back slightly to unlock it. Then pull the beltacross you more slowly.When the lap portion of the belt is pulled out all theway, it will lock. If it does, let it go back all theway and start again. See “Lap Belt Cinch Feature”later in this section.4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure.If the belt isn’t long enough, see Safety BeltExtender on page 1-19.Make sure the release button on the buckle ispositioned so you would be able to unbuckle thesafety belt quickly if you ever had to.
The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug onthe hips, just touching the thighs. In a crash, thisapplies force to the strong pelvic bones. And you’d beless likely to slide under the lap belt. If you slid under it,the belt would apply force at your abdomen. Thiscould cause serious or even fatal injuries. The shoulderbelt should go over the shoulder and across thechest. These parts of the body are best able to take beltrestraining forces.The safety belt locks if there’s a sudden stop or crash,or if you pull the belt very quickly out of the retractor.Lap Belt Cinch FeatureIf you do not want the lap belt to move freely, pull thelap belt out all the way to set the lock. To permit the lapbelt to move freely again, unbuckle the belt, let itretract all the way, and buckle up again.1-13
Q: What’s wrong with this?{CAUTION:You can be seriously hurt if your shoulder beltis too loose. In a crash, you would moveforward too much, which could increase injury.The shoulder belt should fit against your body.A:1-14The shoulder belt is too loose. It won’t give nearlyas much protection this way.
Q: What’s wrong with this?{CAUTION:You can be seriously injured if your belt isbuckled in the wrong place like this. In a crash,the belt would go up over your abdomen. Thebelt forces would be there, not at the pelvicbones. This could cause serious internalinjuries. Always buckle your belt into thebuckle nearest you.A:The belt is buckled in the wrong place.1-15
Q: What’s wrong with this?{CAUTION:You can be seriously injured if you wear theshoulder belt under your arm. In a crash, yourbody would move too far forward, which wouldincrease the chance of head and neck injury.Also, the belt would apply too much force tothe ribs, which aren’t as strong as shoulderbones. You could also severely injure internalorgans like your liver or spleen.A:1-16The shoulder belt is worn under the arm. It shouldbe worn over the shoulder at all times.
Q: What’s wrong with this?{CAUTION:You can be seriously injured by a twisted belt.In a crash, you wouldn’t have the full width ofthe belt to spread impact forces. If a belt istwisted, make it straight so it can workproperly, or ask your dealer to fix it.A:The belt is twisted across the body.1-17
Safety Belt Use During PregnancySafety belts work for everyone, including pregnantwomen. Like all occupants, they are more likely to beseriously injured if they don’t wear safety belts.To unlatch the belt, just push the button on the buckle.The belt should go back out of the way.Before you close the door, be sure the belt is out of theway. If you slam the door on it, you can damageboth the belt and your vehicle.A pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder belt, andthe lap portion should be worn as low as possible,below the rounding, throughout the pregnancy.1-18
The best way to protect the fetus is to protect themother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it’s morelikely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. Forpregnant women, as for anyone, the key to makingsafety belts effective is wearing them properly.Child RestraintsOlder ChildrenPassenger PositionThe passenger’s safety belt works the same way as thedriver’s safety belt. See Driver Position on page 1-12.Safety Belt ExtenderIf the vehicle’s safety belt will fasten around you, youshould use it.But if a safety belt isn’t long enough to fasten, yourdealer will order you an extender. It’s free. When you goin to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear, sothe exte
