While the vehicle is being driven, all ve-
hicle
occupants should have the seatback
upright, sit well back in the seat and prop-
erly wear the seat belts provided.
CAUTION
Do not drive with the vehicle occu- pants not properly seated, such as
sitting on top of a folded-down seatback, or in the luggage
compartment. Persons not proper-
ly seated and restrained by seat
belts can be severely injured in the event of emergency braking or a collision.
During driving, do not let passen- gers stand up or move around be-
tween seats. Balance can be un-
steady and severe injuries can oc-
cur in the event of emergency brak-
ing or a collision.! Adjust the driver's seat so that the foot
pedals, steering wheel and instrument
panel
controls are within easy reach of the
driver.CAUTION
Adjustments should not be made
while the vehicle is moving, as the
seat may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control of
the vehicle.
When adjusting the seat, be carefulnot to hit the seat against a passen-
ger, luggage or rear seat.
After adjusting the seat position, try sliding it forward and backward
to make sure it is locked in posi- tion.
After adjusting the seatback, exert
body pressure to make sure it is
locked in position.
Do not put objects under the seats
as they may interfere with the seat-
lock mechanism or unexpectedly
push up the seat position adjusting
lever; the seat may suddenly move,
causing the driver to lose control of
the vehicle.
While adjusting the seat, do not put
your hands under the seat or near
the moving parts. You may jam
your hands or fingers.!

Adjust the mirror so you can see the
side of your vehicle in the mirror. Be careful when judging the size or dis- tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger's side.
It is a convex mirror with a curved surface.
Any object seen in a convex mirror will
look smaller and farther away than when
seen in a flat mirror.To adjust a power rear view mirror, first
place the master switch at Lº (left) or
Rº (right) depending on which mirror
needs adjusting, then push the con-
trol switch in the desired direction.
If the engine is not running, the key must be in the ACCº position.
If ice should jam the mirror, do notoperate the control or scrape the
mirror face. Use a spray de-icer to free the mirror.
NOTICE
To fold the rear view mirror, push back-
ward.
The rear view mirrors can be folded back-
ward for parking in restricted areas.

If the washer does not work, check to see
whether the washer tank is empty. For in-
formation on adding washer fluid, see
Adding washer fluidº in Chapter 7-3.
In cold weather, warm the windshield with

The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window will quickly clear the window
surface. An indicator light will illuminate to
indicate the defogger is operating.
On some models, the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will also quickly
clear the surfaces. Keep you hands off the
mirror faces when the switch is on. Push the switch once again to turn the de-

melting snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice, use a spray de-icer be-
fore operating the switch.
