Secure long objects properly to
prevent them from shooting for-

during a sudden stop or sharp
cornering. Tie long objects down
with a rope or something equiva-
lent.

Never allow passengers to ride on
the folded rear seatback or in the
cargo area. Doing so may result in
serious injury or death.

Secure skis and other lengthy
items properly to prevent them
from shooting forward and caus-
ing serious injury during a sudden
stop.
Never drive the vehicle with the
head restraints removed because
they are designed to reduce the risk
of serious neck injury in the event
that the vehicle is struck from the
rear.
The head restraint is not intended to
be used at the lowest position. Be-
fore sitting on the seat, raise the
head restraint to the click position.
