:ARN,NGzDo not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without using the adjusting mechanism.
z Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equip- ped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehi- cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child restraint.
z To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,the seatbacks should always be in the al- most upright position while the vehicle is
in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in- jury, when the seatback is reclined.
z Do not place objects under the seats. This
could prevent the seat from locking se-
curely, and it could lead to an accident. It may also cause damage to the seat or oth-
er parts.CAUT,ONz Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe operation.
z Do not place a cushion or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving.The effectiveness of the head restraints will
be reduced in the event of an accident.
z The reclining mechanism of the front seat’s
seatback is spring loaded, causing it to return
to the vertical position when the lock lever is
operated. When using the lever, sit close to the seatback or hold it with your hand to
control its return motion.
z When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.
z When adjusting the front seat while the rear
seat is folded, be careful not to apply strongforce to the flipped rear seat cushion.
Doing so could cause damage to the cover of
the front seat and the fitting of the rear seat
cushion.Front seats
