Child Safety

ISOFIX ANCHOR POINTS

WARNING
Use an anti-rotation device when using the ISOFIX system. We recommend that you use a top tether
or a support leg.
Note: When you are purchasing an ISOFIX restraint, make sure that you know the correct mass group and ISOFIX size class for the intended seating locations. See Child Seat Positioning (page 17).
Your vehicle is fitted with ISOFIX anchor points that accommodate universally approved ISOFIX child restraints.
The ISOFIX system comprises two rigid attachment arms on the child restraint that attach to anchor points on the 2nd row seats, where the cushion and backrest meet. Tether anchor points are fitted to the back panel trim for child restraints with a top tether.
Attaching a child restraint with a top tether
WARNING
Do not attach a tether strap to anything other than the correct tether anchor point.
Double cab
1. Remove the head restraint. See Head Restraints (page 78).
2. Place the child seat on the back seat cushion and fold the relevant seatback forward. See Rear Seats (page 78).
3. Route the tether strap to the anchor point.
WARNING
Make sure the top tether strap is not slack or twisted and is properly located on the anchor point.
20
Child Safety
4. Push the seatback to the upright position.
WARNINGS
Make sure that the seatback is secure and fully engaged in the catch.
Make sure the safety seat is fitted correctly. There is a risk of injury.
5. Push the child seat back firmly to engage the ISOFIX lower anchor points.
6. Tighten the tether strap in line with the child seat manufacturers instructions.
We recommend that you use a tether strap where fitted.

BOOSTER SEATS

WARNINGS
Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with only the lap strap of the seat belt.
Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with a seat belt that is slack or twisted.
Do not put the seat belt under your child’s arm or behind its back.
Do not use pillows, books or towels to boost your child’s height.
Make sure that your children sit in an upright position.
Secure children that weigh more than 15 kilograms (33 pounds) but
are less than 150 centimetres (59 inches) tall in a booster seat or a booster cushion.
CAUTION
When using a child seat on a rear seat, make sure that the child seat rests
tightly against the vehicle seat. It may be necessary to lift or remove the head restraint. See Head Restraints (page 78).
Booster seat (Group 2)
We recommend that you use a booster seat that combines a cushion with a backrest instead of a booster cushion only. The raised seating position will allow you to position the shoulder strap of the adult seat belt over the centre of your child’s shoulder and the lap strap tightly across its hips.

Child Safety

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Airbags
WARNINGS
Do not modify the front of your vehicle in any way. This could adversely affect deployment of the
airbags.
Original text according to ECE R94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on
a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!
Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient distance between yourself and the
steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position that allows the airbag to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the Correct Position (page 74).
Have repairs to the steering wheel,
steering column, seats, airbags and
seat belts carried out by a properly trained technician.
Keep the areas in front of the airbags
free from obstruction. Do not affix
anything to or over the airbag covers.
Do not poke sharp objects into areas
where airbags are fitted. This could
damage and adversely affect deployment of the airbags.
Use seat covers designed for seats
with side airbags. Have these fitted
by a properly trained technician.
Note: You will hear a loud bang and see a cloud of harmless powdery residue if an airbag deploys. This is normal.
Note: Only wipe airbag covers with a damp cloth.
Driver and front passenger airbags
The driver and front passenger airbags will deploy during significant frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus cushioning forward body movement. During minor frontal collisions, overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the driver and front passenger airbags will not deploy.
Driver knee airbag
CAUTION
Do not attempt to open the driver knee airbag cover.
The driver knee airbag will deploy during frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing a cushion between the driver’s knees and the steering column. During overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the knee airbag will not deploy.
For item location: See At a Glance (page
9).
23

Occupant protection

Note: The knee airbag has a lower
deployment threshold than the front airbags. During a minor collision, it is possible that only the knee airbag deploys.
Side airbags
Side airbags are fitted inside the seatback of the front seats. A label indicates that side airbags are fitted to your vehicle.
The side airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the chest and shoulder areas. During minor lateral collisions, overturns, front collisions and rear collisions, the side airbags will not deploy.
Curtain airbags
Curtain airbags are fitted inside the trim panels over the front and rear side windows. Moulded badges in the B-pillar trim panels indicate that curtain airbags are fitted to your vehicle.
The curtain airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the head. During minor lateral collisions, front collisions, rear collisions, or overturns the curtain airbags will not deploy.
Seat belts
WARNINGS
Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient distance between yourself and the
steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the Correct Position (page
74).
Never use a seat belt for more than
one person.
Use the correct buckle for each seat
belt.
Do not use a seat belt that is slack
or twisted.
Do not wear thick clothing. The seat
belt must fit tightly around your body
to achieve its optimum effect.
Position the shoulder strap of the
seat belt over the centre of your
shoulder and position the lap strap tightly across your hips.
24
Occupant protection
The driver and front passenger seat belt retractors are fitted with a seat belt pretensioner. Seat belt pretensioners have a lower deployment threshold than the airbags. During minor collisions, it is possible that only the seat belt pretensioners will deploy.
Status after a collision
WARNING
Seat belts subjected to strain, as a result of an accident, should be renewed and the anchorages
checked by a properly trained technician.

FASTENING THE SEAT BELTS

WARNING
Insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear a distinct click. You have not fastened the seat belt properly
if you do not hear a click.
Pull the belt out steadily. It may lock if you pull it sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.
Press the red button on the buckle to release the belt. Let it retract completely and smoothly.

SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

To raise or lower, pull the locking button on the adjuster and move as necessary.
25
Occupant protection

SEAT BELT REMINDER

WARNING
The occupant protection system will only provide optimum protection when you use the seat belt properly.
Type 1: The seat belt warning lamp will be illuminated for 6 seconds when the ignition is turned on to remind the driver to fasten the seatbelt.
Type 2: The seat belt warning lamp will be illuminated at any time when the drivers seat belt is not fastened.
Type 3: The seat belt reminder warning lamp illuminates and an audible warning will sound if the driver or front passenger seat belt has not been fastened and the vehicle exceeds a relatively low speed. It will also illuminate if either of the seat belt is unfastened when the vehicle is moving. The audible warning will go off after five minutes but the seat belt reminder warning lamp will remain on until the seat belt is fastened.
Deactivating the seat belt reminder
See your dealer.

USING SEAT BELTS DURING PREGNANCY

WARNING
Position the seat belt correctly for
your safety and that of your unborn
child. Do not use only the lap strap or the shoulder strap.
Position the lap strap comfortably across your hips and low beneath your pregnant abdomen. Position the shoulder strap between your breasts, above and to the side of your pregnant abdomen.

DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG

WARNING
Make sure that the passenger airbag
is disabled when using a rearward
facing child restraint on the front passenger seat.
26
Occupant protection
Fitting the passenger airbag deactivation switch
WARNING
If you need to fit a child restraint on a seat protected by an operational
airbag in front of it, have a passenger airbag deactivation switch fitted. Ask your dealer for further information.
Note: The key switch is located in the glove compartment with an airbag deactivation lamp in the instrument panel.
If the airbag warning lamp illuminates or flashes when you are driving, this indicates a malfunction. Remove the child restraint and have the system checked immediately.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES

CAUTIONS
The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio transmissions (e.g. amateur radios, medical equipment, wireless headphones, remote controls and alarm systems). If the frequencies are jammed, you will not be able to use your remote control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.
Check your vehicle is locked before
leaving it unattended. This will
safeguard against any potential malicious frequency blocking.
Note: You could unlock the doors if you press the buttons on the remote control unintentionally.
The operating range between your remote control and your vehicle varies depending on the environment.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL

Note: Additional remote controls can be
programmed only if the vehicle is supplied with atleast one remote control.
A maximum of eight remote controls (including the one supplied with your vehicle) can be programmed. The remote controls must remain inside the vehicle during the programming procedure. Fasten the front seat belts and close all doors to ensure that conflicting chimes do not sound during programming.
Programming a new remote control
1. To programme new remote controls turn the ignition key to position II four times within six seconds.
2. Turn the ignition to position 0. A tone sounds to indicate that it is now possible to programme the remote controls for ten seconds.
3. Press any button on a new remote control. A tone will sound as confirmation.
4. Repeat this last step for all your remote controls, including your original. Do not remove the key from the ignition when pressing the button on this remote control.
5. Switch the ignition back on (position II) or wait for ten seconds without programming another remote control to end the key programming. Only the remote controls which you have just programmed are now able to lock and unlock the vehicle.
Reprogramming the unlocking function
Note: When you press the unlock button
either all the doors are unlocked or only the driver’s door is unlocked. Pressing the unlock button again unlocks all the doors.
Press and hold the unlock and lock buttons on the remote key simultaneously for at least four seconds with the ignition off. The direction indicators will flash twice to confirm the change.
To return to the original unlocking function, repeat the process.
Programming the additional key
Note: The additional keys can be
programmed only if you already have two programmed keys.
