When returning seats to their origi-
nal position, observe the following
precautions in order to prevent per-
sonal injury in a collision or sud-
den stop:
Be careful not to get your hands or
feet pinched in the seat.
Make sure the seat is securely
locked by pushing forward and rear-
ward on the top of the seatback or
by trying to pull up the edge of the
bottom cushion. Failure to do so
will prevent the seat belt from oper-
ating properly.
Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught under the seat
and are arranged in their proper
position and are ready to use.
Folding the seats up will enlarge the lug-
gage compartment. See “—Stowage pre-
cautions” on page 399 in Section 2 for
precautions when loading luggage.

1. SEAT POSITION ADJUSTING LEVER
Hold the center of the lever and pull it
up. Then slide the seat to the desired
position with slight body pressure and
release the lever.
2. SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING LEVER/STRAP (from front)
Lean forward and pull the lever or strap
toward you. Then lean back to the de-
sired angle and release the lever or
strap.
3. SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING STRAP (from rear)
Pull the strap and push the seatback
forward or pull it backward to the de-
sired angle and release the strap.CAUTION
Avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts pro-
vide maximum protection in a frontal
or rear collision when the passengers
are sitting up straight and well back
in the seats. If you are reclined, the
lap belt may slide past your hips and
apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen or your neck may contact
the shoulder belt. In the event of a
frontal collision, the more the seat is
reclined, the greater the risk of death
or personal injury.
For access to the third seat, perform
the following procedure.
Fold down the seatback while pulling the
seatback angle adjusting lever or strap
and swing up the seat.
After passengers are in, return the seat
until it locks securely, and lift up the seat
back by pulling the lever or strap.

CAUTION
After returning the seat, make sure
the seat is securely locked by push-
ing forward and rearward on the top
