WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. 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 and upright in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the
seat belt properly. See “Precautions
on seat belt usage” (P.1-18).
. After adjustment, gently rock in the
seat to make sure it is securely
locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious accidents.
. To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave children, people who require the
assistance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a sig-
nificant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.
. The seatback should not be reclined
any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when
the passenger sits well back and
straight up in the seat. If the seat-
back is reclined, the risk of sliding
under the lap belt and being injured is
increased.

FRONT SEATS
Front power seat adjustment
Operating tips:
.The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 seconds,
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 “Memory seat” (P.3-39) for the seat
position memory function.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries and/or damages.
SSS1051
Forward and backward:
Moving the switch
forward or backward
will slide the seat forward or backward to
the desired position.
Reclining:
Move the recline switch
backward until
the desired angle is obtained. To bring the
seatback forward again, move the switch
forward.
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.1-18).) Also, the seatback can be
reclined to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is stopped and the transmission is in
the P (Park) position.

Seat lifter:
1. Pull up or push down the adjustingswitch to adjust the seat height until
the desired position is achieved.
2. Tilt up or down the adjusting switch to adjust the front angle of the seat until
the desired position is achieved (for
driver’s seat).
SSS1053
Lumbar support:
The lumbar support feature provides lower
back support to the occupants.
Push the front or back end of the switch to
adjust the seatback lumbar area.
2ND ROW SEATS
WARNING
.Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area 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 ser-
ious injury in an accident or sudden
stop.
. When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched
position. If they are not completely
secured, passengers may be injured in
an accident or sudden stop.
. Properly secure all cargo to help
prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than the
seatbacks. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could cause
personal injury.

occupants to rest when the vehicle is parked.

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

CAUTION
.Do not drive with the 2nd row seat
tipped up.

seat to pinch, hit any part of your
body or other people when operating
the 2nd row seat. Make sure the seat
path is clear of all objects before
moving the seat.
The 2nd row seat can be tipped forward for
