WARNING: When possible, all children 12 years old and under

should be properly restrained in a rear seating position. Failure

to follow this could seriously increase the risk of injury or death.

WARNING: Safety belts and seats can become hot in a vehicle

that has been closed up in sunny weather; they could burn a

small child. Check seat covers and buckles before you place a child

anywhere near them.

WARNING: Front and rear seat occupants, including pregnant

women, should wear safety belts for optimum protection in an

accident.

All seating positions in this vehicle have lap and shoulder safety belts. All

occupants of the vehicle should always properly wear their safety belts,

even when an airbag supplemental restraint system is provided.

The safety belt system consists of:

• lap and shoulder safety belts.

• shoulder safety belt with automatic locking mode, (except driver

safety belt).

• height adjuster at the front outboard seating positions

• safety belt pretensioner at the front outboard seating positions.

• Safety belt warning light and chime. See Safety belt warning

light and indicator chime later in this chapter.

• Crash sensors and monitoring system with readiness

indicator. See Crash sensors and airbag indicator in the

Supplemental Restraints System chapter.

The safety belt pretensioners are designed to activate in frontal or

near-frontal crashes and may deploy in rollovers if the vehicle is

equipped with roll stability control. The safety belt pretensioners at the

front seating positions are designed to tighten the safety belts firmly

against the occupant’s body when activated. This helps increase the

effectiveness of the safety belts.
