WARNING
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. You could also
slide under the lap belt and receive
serious internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-12).
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.
. The seatback should not be reclined
further than necessary for comfort. Seat
belts are most effective when the pas-
senger sits well back and straight up in
the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the
risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure
not to contact any moving parts to avoid
possible injuries and/or damages.

Operating tips:
.The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 sec-
onds, then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch
for a long period of time when the
engine is off. This will discharge the
battery.
See “Automatic drive positioner” (P.3-29)
for the seat position memory function (if so
equipped).

The reclining feature allows adjustment of
the seatback for occupants of different
sizes for added comfort and to help obtain
proper seat belt fit. (See “Precautions on
seat belt usage” (P.1-12).) Also, the seat- back can be reclined to allow occupants to
rest when the vehicle is parked.

REAR SEATS
Folding (if so equipped)
WARNING
. Never allow anyone to ride in the trunk
or on the rear seat when it is in the fold-
down position. Use of these areas by
passengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in 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.
. When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched posi-
tion. If they are not completely secured,
passengers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
. Closely supervise children when they are
around cars to prevent them from play-
ing and becoming locked in the trunk
where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the car locked, with the rear
