B090A02TG-AATFRONT POWER SEATSThe front seats can be adjusted appropri-
ately by using the control knob of the seat.
Before driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so as to easily control the steering
wheel, pedals and switches on the instru-
ment panel.
CAUTION:
Do not operate two knobs at the same
time.
WARNING:
o Never adjust the driver’s seat while
the vehicle is moving. Any sudden or
unexpected movement of the seat
could cause you to lose control of the
vehicle resulting in an accident. Only
adjust the driver’s seat when the ve-
hicle is stationary.
o Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the airbag. Position the seat so that
you can sit as far back as possible
from the airbag and still comfortably
reach all controls.

WARNING:
Riding with a reclined seatback in-
creases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or
sudden stop. The protection of your
restraint system (seat belts and airbags)
is greatly reduced by reclining your seat.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. The
more the seatback is reclined, the greater
the chance that an occupant's hips will
slide under the lap belt or the occupant's
neck will strike the shoulder belt. Driv-
ers and passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, properly belted,
and with the seatbacks upright.
B080D01CM-AATAdjustable HeadrestsHeadrests are designed to help reduce
the risk of neck injuries. To raise the head-
rest, pull it up. To lower the headrest, push
it down while pressing the release button.
To remove the headrest, raise it as far as
it can go then press the release button
while pulling upward. This should only be
done when the seat is not occupied.
To reinstall the headrest, put the headrest
poles (1) into the holes while pressing the
release button (2). Then adjust it to the
appropriate height.
B080D01TG(1)
!
WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the head-
rest is at the same height of the center
of gravity of an occupant's head. Gen-
erally, the center of gravity of most
people's head is similar with the height
of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust
the headrest as close to your head as
possible. For this reason, the use of a
cushion that holds the body away from
the seatback is not recommended.

WARNING:
Make sure the headrest locks in position
after adjusting it to properly protect the
occupants.

B081D01TG-AATForward and Backward Headrest
AdjustmentThe headrest may be adjusted forward to
3 different positions by pulling the head-
rest forward to the desired detent. To ad-
just the headrest to it’s furthest backwards
position, pull it fully forward to the farthest
position and release it. Adjust the headrest
so that it properly supports the head and
neck.
HTG2045
B083D02NF-AATActive Headrests (If Installed)The active headrest is designed to move
forward and upward during a rear impact.
This helps to prevent the driver's and front
passenger's head from moving backward
and thus helps minimize neck injuries.
HNF2041-1
o Do not operate vehicle with the head-
rests removed as severe injury to the
occupants may occur in the event of
an accident. Headrests may provide
protection against neck injuries when
properly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the headrest position of
the driver's seat while the vehicle is in
motion.

!
WARNING:
Do not turn on the seat warmers if the
seat is occupied by someone who can-
not monitor the temperature and turn off
the seat warmer if it becomes too warm.
The seat warmers should not be turned
on when children, the elderly, ill people,
and sleeping people occupy the seat.
!
WARNING:
The purpose of the folding rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer
objects than could otherwise be accom-
modated. Do not allow passengers to sit
on top of the folded down seatback, while
the car is moving as this is not a proper
seating position and no seat belts are
available for use. This could result in
serious injury or death in case of an
accident or sudden stop. Objects car-
ried 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.

poles (1) into the holes while pressing the
release button (2). Then adjust it to the
appropriate height.

SEAT BELTS!
B150A02S-AATSEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:All occupants of the vehicle must wear
their seat belts at all times. Seat belts and
child restraints reduce the risk of serious
or fatal injuries for all occupants in the
event of a collision or sudden stop. With-
out a seat belt, occupants could be shifted
too close to a deploying airbag, strike the
interior structure or be thrown from the
vehicle. Properly worn seat belts greatly
reduce these hazards. Even with ad-
vanced airbags, unbelted occupants can
be severely injured by a deploying airbag.
Always follow the precautions about seat
belts, airbags and occupant safety con-
tained in this manual.B150B04Y-AATInfant or Small ChildAll 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific require-
ments in your state. Child and/or infant
safety seats must be properly placed and
installed in the rear seat. Information about
the use of these restraints begins on page
1-34.
!
WARNING:
Every person in your vehicle needs to be
properly restrained at all times, includ-
ing infants and children. Never hold a
child in your arms or lap when riding in a
vehicle. The violent forces created dur-
ing a crash will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against the
interior. Always use a child restraint
appropriate for your child's height and
weight, see page 1-34.NOTE:Small children are best protected from
injury in an accident when properly re-
strained in the rear seat by a child re-
straint system that meets the require-
ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. Before buying any
child restraint system, make sure that it
has a label certifying that it meets Fed-
eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
The restraint must be appropriate for
your child's height and weight. Check
the label on the child restraint for this
information. See page 1-34.
B150C02A-AATLarger ChildrenChildren who are too large for child re-
straint systems should always occupy the
rear seat and use the available lap/shoul-
der belts. The lap portion should be fas-
tened snug on the hips and as low as
possible. Check belt fit periodically. A
child's squirming could put the belt out of
position. Children are afforded the most
safety in the event of an accident when
they are restrained by a proper restraint
system in the rear seat. If a larger child
(over age 13) must be seated in the front
seat, the child should be securely re-
strained by the available lap/shoulder belt
and the seat should be placed in the
rearmost position. Children under the age
of 13 should be restrained securely in the
rear seat. NEVER place a child under the
age of 13 in the front seat. NEVER place a
rear facing child seat in the front seat of a
vehicle.
