2Third row seat (Seating 7 passengers)
N00419500063
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.
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.

When using the third row seat, always position and
lock the head restraints on top of the seat back.
See the steps 6 and 7 of the procedure for folding out
the third seat.
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 3-288.
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.

N00405700110
The second row seat can be folded to create an additional cargo
area or to permit access to the third row seat on vehicles with a
third row seat.NOTE
You can separately fold the right and left side of the sec-
ond row seat.

When folding down the seatback, the seat belt buckles can
be stowed in the slits on the seat to avoid leaving marks on
the seat.
“Storing the second row and third row seat belts” on page
2-46.To f o l d u p t h e s e a t1. Lower the head restraints to the lowest position.
Refer to “Head restraints” on page 2-26.
CAUTION
!
In the cargo area, do not load the luggage higher
than the top of the seats and make sure that the lug-
gage is firmly secured. Restricted rear vision or fly-
ing objects entering the passenger compartment
during sudden braking could result in a serious acci-
dent.

the normal position by an adult. Seat adjustments
by a child could lead to an unexpected accident.

your hand or leg. Personal injury could result.

N00406600073
When a second row seat belt is not in use, insert the buckle in
the slit on the seat cushion.
Seat belt extender
N00406700191
When your seat belt, even fully extended, is not long enough, a
seat belt extender must be obtained. The extender may be used
for either of the front seats.
WA R N I N G
!
The extender should only be used if the existing belt
is not long enough. Anyone who can use the stan-
dard seat belt should not use an extender. Unneces-
sary use of an extender can adversely affect seat belt
performance in an accident.
When not required, the extender must be removed
and stowed.
