CAUTIONlWhen driving with a child in the rear seat,
please use the child protection to prevent ac-
cidental door opening which may cause an accident.Tailgate
E00301402461WARNINGlThe luggage compartment was not de-
signed for people to ride in it. Do not let
passengers ride in or let children play in
the luggage compartment. Riding or play- ing in the luggage compartment could re-
sult in a serious accident.
l It is dangerous to drive with the tailgate
open, since carbon monoxide (CO) gas
contained in engine exhaust gases can en- ter the cabin.
You cannot see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death.
In addition, if the tailgate opens when
driving, luggage could fall onto the road and cause an accident.
l When opening and closing the tailgate,
make sure that there are no people near-
by and that there is sufficient space be-
hind and above the vehicle. In addition, be careful not to hit your head or pinch
your hands, neck, etc.WARNINGl When there is a build up of snow or ice, it
should be removed before opening the tailgate. If you open the tailgate without
removing it, there is a possibility that the tailgate may close suddenly due to theweight of that snow or ice.
l When you open the tailgate make sure
that the tailgate is opened fully and re- mains fully open. If you only open the tail-
gate halfway there is a risk that the tail- gate may drop and slam shut. If you open
the tailgate while your vehicle is parked on an incline it is more difficult to do so than on the flat and also it may drop and
slam shut.CAUTIONl Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when
loading and unloading luggage. The heat
from the exhaust could lead to burns.
l To avoid damage to the tailgate, make sure
the area above and behind the tailgate is
clear before opening it.NOTEl Locking/unlocking with the central door
lock switch, the keyless entry system, or the
keyless operation function also locks/ unlocks the tailgate.To open
After unlocking, press the tailgate OPEN
switch (A) and lift the tailgate.
NOTEl If you do not open the tailgate immediately
after pressing the tailgate OPEN switch, thetailgate can not be lifted. If this happens, press the tailgate OPEN switch again and lift
the tailgate.
l The tailgate cannot be opened when the bat-
tery is flat or disconnected.

Seat adjustmentE00400302073
Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are com- fortable and that you can reach the pedals,
steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision.WARNINGl Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.
l Do not let children or adults ride in areas
of the vehicle that are not equipped with seats or seat belts. Also, make sure that all
occupants are sitting in their seats and wearing their seat belts, and that children
are sitting in child restraints.
l To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,the seatbacks should always be in the al-
most upright position while the vehicle is in motion. The protection provided by theseat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in- jury, when the seatback is reclined.WARNINGl Do not place objects under the seats. This
could prevent the seat from locking se-curely, and it could lead to an accident. It
may also cause damage to the seat or oth-
er parts.CAUTIONl Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving.The effectiveness of the head restraints will
be reduced in the event of an accident.
l When sliding the seat rearward, be careful
not to catch your hand or foot.Front seat

1 (HI)- Heater high (for quick heating).2- Heater off.3 (LO)- Heater low (to keep the seat
warm).CAUTIONl Switch off seat heaters when not in use.CAUTIONlOperate in the high position for quick heat-
ing. Once the seat is warm, set the heater to low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature may be felt while using the heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of the heater’s internal thermostat and does not indicate a malfunction.
l If the following types of persons use the
heated seats, they might become too hot or receive minor burns (red skin, heat blisters,
etc.):
• Children, elderly or ill people
• People with sensitive skin
• Excessively tired people

sleep inducing medication (cold medicine, etc.)
l Do not place heavy objects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or other pointed objects into it.

rial with high heat insulation properties on the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat
l Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol, alcohol
or other organic solvents when cleaning the seats. Doing so could damage not only the seat cover, but also the heater element.
l If water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before at-tempting to use the heater.
l Turn the heater off immediately if it appears
to be malfunctioning during use.Rear seat

compartment E00403400231WARNINGlWhen making a luggage compartment,
never arrange the seats while the vehicle
is being driven or is on an incline. The seats could move unexpectedly or more
than required and cause a serious acci- dent.
l If required, always operate the seating be-
fore the vehicle is in motion.

compartment while the vehicle is in mo-
tion. People who are not properly seated
and restrained can be seriously injured or killed in an accident.

E00404800636
To protect you and your passengers in theevent of an accident, it is most important thatthe seat belts be worn correctly while driving.
The front seat belts have a pretensioner sys- tem. These belts are used the same way as a
conventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and
force limiter system” on page 4-14.WARNINGl Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put it behind you or under your arm.
l One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger- ous.
l The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat- back is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will slide under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or seatbacks.
l Seat belts should always be worn by every
adult who drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children who are tall enough towear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper child restraint systems.
l Remove any twists when using the belt.
l No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre-
vent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack.
