Occupant Protection Device
The seats and the occupant protection device are designed to minimize
the risks of personal injuries when accident occurs. Observe the
following points to achieve the best results.
• Do not make the seat too close to the steering wheel.
• Do not tilt the seat excessively. Do not tilt the seat back more than
30", so that you can seat yourself vertically with the slightly bent arms
and the root of the spine should be backward as possible as you can.
• The center of the head restraints should be adjusted to the back of
your head, rather than the neck.
• The shoulder belt should go through the center of your shoulder

unprotected occupant may knock against any part of the
vehicle or be thrown out of the vehicle, resulting in
himself/herself or others being injured. The driver and
any adults (Including children with body height similar
to that of an adult) must always wear a seat belt on all
journeys. Do not loosen the belt that fastened on your

lap. The seat belt is intended for use by adult-sized
occupants only. Children should be restrained in the
correct child restraint device.
The belt should be straight and fastened when you wear
it, otherwise, the belt can not be operated smoothly.

BEFORE YOU DRIVE
Do not hold an infant or child on your lap. They will
become too heavy to restrain in case of collision.
Prevent the foreign materials (especially the sugary food
and drinks) from entering the seat belt buckle, as those
materials may cause the buckle fault.
If the seat belt has been used in a severe accident or
shows signs of severe fraying or having been cut, or when
a seat belt is equipped with a pre-loading device, when
the latter has been activated, the seat belt assembly shall
be replaced.
The expectant mother should ask the doctor about the
safest method to wear the belt.
Do not modify or change the seat belt in any way as this
may cause the belt fault. Do not disassemble, repair or
lubricate the retractor or buckle mechanism. Each seat
belt is equipped with a retractor, when a seat belt is
pulled out slowly, the retractor can ensure the smooth
retraction of the belt. But if a seat belt is pulled out too
fast, or in a sudden impact (hard deceleration,
acceleration, and a sharp turn), the seat belt will be
locked. Please refer to "Seat Belt" in Maintenance and
