Rear Seats
WARNING
Take the following precautions:

[Adjusting the seats
-NEVER attempt to adjust the seat
while the vehicle is moving. The
seat may suddenly move and may
injure the passenger.
-Make sure that the seat is locked in
place after the adjustment. If not,
the seat might move unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.

[Folding the seats
-Do not fold the seatback when
the seat is occupied (for example,
passenger, pets or luggage). It
may injure the passenger or pet, or
damage the luggage.
-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.

-When returning the rear seatback
from a folded to an upright
position, hold the seatback and
return it slowly. Ensure that the
seatback is completely locked into
its upright position by pushing
on the top of the seatback. In
an accident or sudden stop, the
unlocked seatback could allow
cargo to move forward with great
force and enter the passenger
compartment, which could result
in serious injury or death.

[Loading cargo
-Make sure the vehicle is off, the
gear shifted to P (Park), and the
parking brake is securely applied
whenever loading or unloading
cargo. Failure to take these steps
may allow the vehicle to move
if the shift button or shift dial is
inadvertently pressed or rotated to
another position.
-When cargo is loaded through
the rear passenger seats, ensure
the cargo is properly secured
to prevent it from moving while
driving.

[Do not place objects in the rear
seats, since they cannot be properly
secured and may hit vehicle
occupants in a collision causing
serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Do not allow your hands or fingers to
get caught in the seat mechanisms
while adjusting the seats.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the vehicle:

[Rear seat belts
Before folding the seatback, insert
the seat belt buckle in the holder
between the seatback and cushion.
And insert the seat belt webbing in
the guide to prevent the seat belt
from being damaged.

[Cargo
Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger seats
to prevent damage to the vehicle
interior.

SEAT BELTS
This section describes how to use the
seat belts properly. It also describes
some of the things not to do when using
seat belts.
Seat Belt Safety Precautions
Always fasten your seat belt and make
sure all passengers have fastened their
seat belts before starting any trip. Air
bags are designed to supplement the
seat belt as an additional safety device,
but they are not a substitute. Most states
require all occupants of a vehicle to wear
seat belts.
WARNING
Seat belts must be used by ALL
passengers whenever the vehicle is
moving. Take the following precautions
when adjusting and wearing seat belts:

[Children under the age of 13 should
be properly restrained in the rear
seats.

[Never allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat, unless the air
bag is deactivated. If a child is seated
in the front passenger seat, move the
seat as far back as possible. And the
child must always be restrained in
the seat properly.

[NEVER allow an infant or child to be
carried on an occupant’s lap.

[NEVER ride with the seatback
reclined when the vehicle is moving.

[Do not allow children to share a seat
or seat belt.

[Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back.
[Never wear a seat belt over fragile
objects. If there is a sudden stop or
impact, the seat belt can damage it.

[Do not use the seat belt if it is
twisted. A twisted seat belt will not
protect you properly in an accident.

[Do not use a seat belt if the webbing
or hardware is damaged.

[Do not latch the seat belt into the
buckles of other seats.

[NEVER unfasten the seat belt
while driving. This may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.

[Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism, because any
materials in the buckle can cause the
seat belt not to be fastened securely.

[No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
WARNING
Damaged seat belts and seat belt
assemblies will not operate properly.
Always replace:

[Frayed, contaminated, or damaged
webbing.

[Damaged hardware.

[The entire seat belt assembly after it
has been worn in an accident, even
if damage to webbing or assembly is
not apparent.

increase the risk of serious injury
in an accident. Take the following
precautions when adjusting the seat
belt:

[Position the lap portion of the seat
belt as low as possible across your
hips, not on your waist, so that it
fits snugly. This allows your strong
pelvic bones to absorb the force of
the crash, reducing the chance of
internal injuries.

[Position one arm under the shoulder
belt and the other over the belt, as
shown in the illustration.

[Always position the shoulder belt
anchor into the locked position at the
appropriate height.
