Folding the rear seat
The rear seatbacks (or cushions)

capacity of the vehicle.
•Never allow passengers to sit on
top of the folded down seatback
while the vehicle is moving as
this is not a proper seating posi
tion and no seat belts are avail
able 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 seats. This could allow
cargo to slide forward and cause
injury or damage during sudden
stops.
WARNING
Make sure the headrest locks in
position after adjusting it to prop
erly protect the occupants.
WARNING

same height as the center of
gravity of an occupant's head.
•Do not operate the vehicle with
the headrests removed. Severe
injury to an occupant may occur
in the event of an accident.

tion against severe neck injuries
when properly adjusted.

NOTICE
Cargo
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about
the vehicle in a collision and caus
ing injury to the vehicle occupants.
Do not place objects in the rear
seats, since they cannot be proper
ly secured and may hit the front
seat occupants in a collision.
WARNING
When you return the rear seat
back to its upright position after
being folded down:
Be careful not to damage the seat
belt webbing or buckle. Do not
allow the seat belt webbing or
buckle to get caught or pinched in
the rear seat. Ensure that the
seatback is completely locked into
its upright position by pushing on
the top of the seatback.

den stop, the seat could fold down
and allow cargo to enter the pas
senger compartment, which could
result in serious injury or death.

manual transaxle is in R (Reverse)

securely applied whenever loading
or unloading cargo. Failure to take
these steps may allow the vehicle

Lap/shoulder belt
To fasten your seat belt:
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of
the retractor and insert the metal tab
(1) into the buckle (2). There will be
an audible "click" when the tab locks
into the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to
the proper length only after the lap
belt portion is adjusted manually so
that it fits snugly around your hips. If
you lean forward in a slow, easy
motion, the belt will extend and let
you move around. If there is a sud
den stop or impact, however, the belt
will lock into position. It will also lock
if you try to lean forward too quickly.
Information
If you are not able to pull out the safe
ty belt from the retractor, firmly pull
the belt out and release it. After
release, you will be able to pull the belt
out smoothly.
Height adjustment (if equipped)
You can adjust the height of the shoul
der belt anchor to one of 3 positions
for maximum comfort and safety.
The height of the adjusting seat belt
should not be too close to your neck.
You will not be getting the most effec
tive protection. The shoulder portion
should be adjusted so that it lies
across your chest and midway over
your shoulder near the door and not
your neck.

You should place the lap belt por
tion as low as possible and snugly
across your hips, not on your waist.
If the lap belt is located too high on
your waist, it may increase the
chance of injury in the event of a
collision. Both arms should not be
under or over the belt. Rather, one
should be over and the other
under, as shown in the illustration.
Never wear the seat belt under the
arm nearest the door.
