Seat belts
Before starting the vehicle, make sure that
you and your passengers have fastened your
seat belts.
Floor mats
WARNING
l Keep floor mats clear of the pedals by
correctly laying floor mats that are suita-
ble for the vehicle.
To prevent the floor mats from slipping
out of position, securely retain them using
the hook etc.
Note that laying a floor mat over a pedal
or laying one floor mat on top of another
can obstruct pedal operation and lead to a
serious accident.
Carrying children in the vehi-
cle
l Never leave your vehicle unattended
with the key and children inside the ve-
hicle. Children may play with the driv-
ing controls and this could lead to an ac-
cident.
l Make sure that infants and small chil-
dren are properly restrained in accord-
ance with the laws and regulations, and
for maximum protection in case of an
accident.
l Prevent children from playing in the lug-
gage compartment. It is quite dangerous
to allow them to play there while the ve-
hicle is moving.
Loading luggage
When loading luggage, be careful not to load
above the height of seats. This is dangerous
not only because rearward vision will be ob-
structed, but also the luggage may be projec-
ted into the passenger compartment under
hard braking.
