injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-
cautions:
•Adjust the driver’s seat as far
to the rear as possible main-
taining the ability to control of
the vehicle.
Adjust the front passenger seat
as far to the rear as possible.(Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
Hold the steering wheel by the
rim with hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to min-
imize the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms.
NEVER place anything or any-
one between the air bag.

Safety precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sit-
ting in a safe, comfortable position
plays an important role in driver and
passenger safety together with the
seat belts and air bags in an accident.
Air bags
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury in
the event the air bag inflates. Move
your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, while still main-
taining control of the vehicle.
Do not use a cushion that reduces
friction between the seat and the
passenger. The passenger's hips
may slide under the lap portion
of the seat belt during an acci-
dent or a sudden stop.
Serious or fatal internal injuries
could result because the seat
belt cannot operate properly.

Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting any trip.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in appropriate Child Restraint
Systems. Children who have outgrown a
booster seat and adults must be
restrained using the seat belts.
Front seats
The front seat can be adjusted by
using the control lever (or knob) or
switches located on the outside of the
seat cushion. Before driving, adjust
the seat to the proper position so that
you can easily control the steering
wheel, foot pedals and controls on the
instrument panel.
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat belt:
NEVER use one seat belt for
more than one occupant.
Always position the seatback
upright with the lap portion of
the seat belt snug and low
across the hips.
NEVER allow children or small
infants to ride in a passenger’s
lap. (Continued)
(Continued)
Do not route the seat belt
across your neck, across sharp
edges, or reroute the shoulder
strap away from your body.
Do not allow the seat belt to
become caught or jammed.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat:
NEVER attempt to adjust the
seat while the vehicle is mov-
ing. The seat could respond
with unexpected movement
and may cause loss of vehicle
control resulting in an acci-
dent.
Do not place anything under
the front seats. Loose objects
in the driver’s foot area could
interfere with the operation of
the foot pedals, causing an
accident.(Continued)

1. Pull up the seat slide adjustmentlever and hold it.
2. Slide the seat to the position you desire.

To prevent injury:
Do not adjust your seat while
wearing your seat belt.
Moving the seat cushion for-
ward may cause strong pres-
sure on your abdomen.
Do not allow your hands or
fingers to get caught in the
seat mechanisms while the
seat is moving.
CAUTION(Continued)
Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position
and proper locking of the seat-
back.
Do not place a cigarette lighter
on the floor or seat. When you
operate the seat, gas may exit
out of the lighter causing a fire.
Use extreme caution when
picking small objects trapped
under the seats or between
the seat and the center con-
sole. Your hands might be cut
or injured by the sharp edges
of the seat mechanism.
If there are occupants in the
rear seats, be careful while
adjusting the front seat posi-
tion.

Seatback angle
To recline the seatback:
1.Roll the seatback knob rearward.
2.Adjust the seatback to the positionyou desire. Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when
the vehicle is in motion can be dan-
gerous. Even when buckled up, the
protections of your restraint system
(seat belts and/or air bags) is greatly
reduced by reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt cannot do its job
because it will not be snug against
your chest. Instead, it will be in front
of you. During an accident, you could
be thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined,
the greater chance the passenger’s
hips will slide under the lap belt or
the passenger’s neck will strike the
shoulder belt.
Safety system of your vehicle
OPDE036003NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries in the event
of a collision or sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should
ALWAYS sit well back in their
seats, properly belted, and with
the seatbacks upright.

The rear seatbacks can be folded to
facilitate carrying long items or to
increase the luggage capacity of the
vehicle.To fold down the rear seatback:
1. Set the front seatback to the uprightposition and if necessary, slide the
front seat forward.
2. Lower the rear headrests to the lowest position. 3.Locate the seatbelt toward the out-
board position before folding down
the seatback. If not, the seatbelt
system may be interfered by the
seatback.
Never allow passengers to sit
on top of the folded down
seatback while the vehicle is
moving. This is not a proper
seating position and no seat
belts are available for use.
This could result in serious
injury or death in case of an
accident or sudden stop.
Objects carried on the folded
down seatback should not
extend higher than the top of
the front seatbacks. This could
allow cargo to slide forward
and cause injury or damage
during sudden stops.

Headrest
The vehicle’s front and rear seats have
adjustable headrests. The headrests
provide comfort for passengers, but
more importantly they are designed to
help protect passengers from whiplash
and other neck and spinal injuries dur-
ing an accident, especially in a rear
impact collision.To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death in an accident,
take the following precautions
when adjusting your headrests:
Always properly adjust the
headrests for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.
NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the headrest removed. (Continued)
(Continued)
Adjust the headrests so the
middle of the headrests is at
the same height as the height
of the top of the eyes.
NEVER adjust the headrest
position of the driver’s seat
when the vehicle is in motion.
Adjust the headrest as close
to the passenger’s head as
possible. Do not use a seat
cushion that holds the body
away from the seatback.
Make sure the headrest locks
into position after adjusting it.
WARNING OLF034072N
