WARNING
■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when ad justing the seat
position to ensure that other passen-
gers are not injured by the moving
seat.
●When adjusting the rear seat with an
ottoman, make sure there is sufficient
space so that a foot does not get
caught between the ottoman and front
passenger seat . (If equipped)
●Vehicles with a rear seat entertainment
system: When the rear seat is moving
to the Entertainment Mode position,
do not allow hands near the rear dis-
play. Otherwise, a hand or finger may
be caught, possibly causing injury.
■Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap
belt during a collision, do not recline the
seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may
slide past the hips and apply restraint
forces directly to the abdomen, or your
neck may contact the shoulder belt,
increasing the risk of death or serious
injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while
driving as the seat may unexpectedly
move and cause the driver to lose control
of the vehicle.
■Using the ottoman (if equipped)
●Do not sit on the ottoman.
If someone sits on the ottoman, the seat
belt cannot be fitted properly, and they
may be thrown from the seat, resulting in
death or serious injury in the event of an
accident or sudden braking.
●When getting in or out of the vehicle,
retract the ottoman. If the ottoman is
not retracted, it may cause a fall, result-
ing in injury.
●Do not operate the ottoman when the
vehicle is moving.
●Do not allow anyone to put their hands
or feet under the re ar seat when stow-
ing the ottoman.
NOTICE
■To prevent an ottoman malfunction (if
equipped)
●Do not place any objects in the rear
seat footwell that could prevent the
operation of the ottoman.
●Do not place heavy luggage on the
ottoman.
●Do not place any objects under the
ottoman while it is raised for use. These
objects may interfere with the ottoman
being folded, causing damage to the
ottoman or the objects themselves.
