3. Open the fuel tank filler pipe by slowly turning the fuel
tank filler cap counterclockwise.4. To fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct han-
dling of the fuel filler nozzle. Do not tilt the nozzle. Insert
the nozzle in the fuel tank filler port as far as it goes.
5. When the nozzle stops automatically, do not try to add
more fuel.
6. To close, turn the fuel tank filler pipe cap slowly clock-
wise until you hear clicking sounds, then gently push the
fuel tank filler door closed.1- Remove

WA R N I N G
!

Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel tank filler cap slowly. This relieves
any pressure or vacuum that might have built up in
the fuel tank. If the cap is venting vapor or if you
hear a hissing sound, wait until the sound stops
before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray
out, injuring you or others.
CAUTION
!

Your vehicle can only be operated using unleaded
gasoline. Serious engine and catalytic converter
damage will result if leaded gasoline is filled into
these vehicles, and consequently, this must never be
attempted.CAUTION
!

To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top-
off” the fuel tank. Spilled fuel could discolor, stain,
or crack the vehicle’s paintwork. If fuel spills on the
paintwork, wipe it off with a soft cloth.WA R N I N G
!

Make sure the fuel tank filler cap is securely closed.
If the fuel cap were loose, fuel could leak, resulting
in a fire.

2 Seats and restraint systems
N00401600153
Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help protect
you and your passengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn
properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or
death in various types of crashes. For added protection during a
severe frontal collision, your vehicle has a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door locks also are safety
equipment, which must be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:

That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their
seat belt.


That infants and small children are properly secured in
appropriate child restraint systems in the rear seat.


That all doors are fully closed and locked.


That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly
adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor
vehicle accidents. You can help reduce the risk of injury or
death, however, by following the instructions in this manual.

Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This
can cause loss of vehicle control and result in an
accident.


After adjusting the seat, make sure that it is securely
locked into position.


To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or
death during deployment of the driver’s airbag,
always properly wear the seat belt and adjust the
driver’s seat as far back as possible while maintain-
ing a position that still enables you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel, and safely
operate the vehicle.


To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious
injury or death during deployment of the passen-
ger’s airbag, always properly wear the seat belt and
adjust the front passenger’s seat as far back as pos-
sible.


Always place children 12 years old and under in the
rear seat and use appropriate child restraint sys-
tems.
CAUTION
!

Make sure that the seat is adjusted by an adult. If it
is adjusted by a child, an unexpected accident might
occur.


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.


When sliding the seats, be careful not to catch your
hand or leg.


When sliding or reclining the seat rearward, pay
careful attention to the second row seat passengers.

2Third row seat (Seating 7 passengers)
N00419500047
The third row seat can be used for two additional passengers.
When the third row seat is not in use, it can be stowed under
the floor to provide more cargo area.
When using the third row seat, be sure the head restraint is
properly positioned. Refer to page 2-20.
WA R N I N G
!

The third row seats are intended for use by no more
than two belted occupants, each of which does not
exceed 160 cm (63 inches) in height.
Exceeding these limitations can result in an
increased risk of personal injury or death in the
event of an accident.


The third row seats are not intended for use by
infants and small children who must use rear facing
or forward facing child safety seats.


Third row seat operation should always be made
before driving. Operating the seat while driving
could cause the seat to move more than necessary
and result in a serious injury or death.


Before using, check that the third row seat is firmly
secured. If not secured, the third row seat could
move and cause a serious injury or death in an acci-
dent.


The third row seat should not be used when the sec-
ond row seats are folded forward. Third row seat
passengers can suffer a serious or fatal injury if the
second row seats fell backward in a collision or when
heavy breaking is applied.


For vehicles equipped with the cargo area cover,
when the third row seat is in use, always remove the
cargo area cover to avoid serious injury or death in
the event of an accident.
Refer to “Cargo area cover”, page 3-291.CAUTION
!

The third row seat should be adjusted only by an
adult. If it is adjusted by a child, an unexpected acci-
dent might occur.


When adjusting the third row seat, keep your hands
and feet away from moving parts and the space
below the seat.


Be careful not to touch the exhaust pipe, because it
will remain hot for some time after the engine is
stopped.WA R N I N G
