SEAT HEATER (IF EQUIPPED)
The seats can be warmed by built-in heaters.
The switches are located on the center console
(for front seats) and can be operated indepen-
dently of each other. For more information on
the seat heater, seeSeat heating (if
equipped) in the2. Instruments and controls
section.
REAR SEATS
WARNING
•Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area
or on the rear seat when it is in the fold-
down position. Use of these areas by pas-
sengers without proper restraints could re-
sult in serious injury or deathin an accident
or sudden stop.
•Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps
to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. Do
not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In
a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.
•Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with seats
and seat belts. Be sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
•Do not allow more than one person to use
the same seat belt.
•Do not fold down the rear seats when occu-
pants are in the rear seat area or any lug-
gage is on the rear seats. – Make sure that the seat path is clear
before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or feet to
get caught or pinched in the seat.
•Head restraints/headrests should be ad-
justed properly as they may provide signifi-
cant protection against injury in an acci-
dent. Always replace and adjust them
properly if they have been removed for any
reason.
•If the head restraints/headrests are re-
moved for any reason, they should be se-
curely stored to prevent them from causing
injury to passengers or damage to the ve-
hicle in case of sudden braking or an acci-
dent.
•When returning the seatbacks to the up-
right position, be certain they are com-
pletely secured in the latched position. If
they are not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an accident or sud-
den stop.
