Front seats
A WARNING
Failure to take the following precau­tions may result in the driver's side floor mat interfering with the pedals and causing a loss of vehicle control or an accident. Check that the floor mat grommets are hooked to the fasteners. Never place additional floor mats on top of the existing floor mat.
Seat adjustment
A WARNING
Never attempt to adjust the driver's seat or seatback while driving. The seat or seatback could move unex­pectedly, causing loss of control. Check that the driver's seat and seat­back are properly adjusted before you start driving.
A WARNING
To avoid excessive seat belt slack, which reduces the effectiveness of the seat belts as a safety device, check that the seats are adjusted before the seat belts are fastened.
A WARNING
All seatbacks should always be in an upright position when driving, or seat belt effectiveness may be reduced. Seat belts are designed to offer maxi­mum protection when seatbacks are in the upright position.
A WARNING
Do not place any object under the front seat. If an object becomes caught under the front seat, the fol­lowing may occur. • The seat will not be latched.
A WARNING
Do not leave cigarette lighters or spray cans on the floor. If a cigarette lighter or spray can is on the floor, it may light accidentally when luggage is loaded or the seat is adjusted, causing a fire.

To raise the rear head restraint, pull upward the head restraint until it clicks. To lower the head restraint, push down the head restraint while holding in the lock lever. If a head restraint must be removed (for cleaning, replacement, etc.), push in the lock lever and pull the head restraint all the way out.
When installing a child restraint system, adjust the height of the head restraint or remove it for fitting the child restraint, as necessary.
Folding rear seats
A CAUTION
Remove objects from the rear seats before folding the rear seats. There may be a case that the rear seat belt reminder (if equipped) will not be activated, if objects are remained on the rear seats.
The rear seats of your vehicle can be folded forward to provide additional cargo space.
To fold the rear seats forward:
1) Lower the head restraint (if equipped) fully.
2) Hook the webbing of the outboard lap­shoulder belts in the belt hangers.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
NOTICE
Make sure the belt webbing is not twisted. • When you move a seatback, make sure the belt webbing is hooked in the seat belt hangers so the seat belts are not caught by the seat­back, seat hinge, or seat latch. This helps prevent damage to the belt system.

A. WARNING
If you need to carry cargo in the pas­senger compartment with the rear seatback folded forward, secure the cargo or it may be thrown about, causing injury. Never pile cargo higher than the seatbacks.
To return the seat to the normal position,
follow the procedure below.
NOTICE
When returning the rear seatback to the normal position, check that there is nothing around the striker. Any for­eign materials prevent the seatback from being locked securely.

sive force.
Seat belts and child restraint
systems
650231S
A. WARNING
An airbag supplements or adds to the frontal collision protection offered by seat belts. The driver and all passen­gers must be properly restrained by fastening seat belts at all times, whether or not an airbag is mounted at their seating position, to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a collision.

A WARNING
Do not modify, remove, disassemble seat belts. Doing so may prevent them from functioning properly and cause the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a collision.
A WARNING
Never allow persons to ride in the cargo area of a vehicle. In the event of an accident, there is a much greater risk of injury for persons who are not riding in a seat with their seat belt securely fastened. Seat belts should always be adjusted as follows: -the lap portion of the belt should be worn low across the pelvis, not across the waist. -the shoulder straps should be worn on the outside shoulder only, and never under the arm. -the shoulder straps should be away from your face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.

A WARNING
(Continued) • Seat belts should never be worn with the straps twisted and should be adjusted as tightly as is com­fortable to provide the protection for which they have been designed. A slack belt will provide less pro­tection than a snug belt. Check that each seat belt latch plate (tongue) is inserted into the proper buckle catch. It is possible to cross the buckles in the rear seat. (Continued)

FOR SAFE DRIVING
A. WARNING
(Continued) Pregnant women should use seat belts, although specific recommen­dations about driving should be made by the woman's medical advi• sor. Remember that the lap portion of the belt should be worn as low as possible across the hips, as shown in the illustration. Do not fasten your seat belt over hard or breakable objects in your pockets or on your clothing. If an accident occurs, objects such as glasses, pens, etc. under the seat belt can cause injury. (Continued)
1-9
A. WARNING
(Continued) • Never use the same seat belt for more than one occupant and never attach a seat belt over an infant or child being held on an occupant's lap. Such seat belt use could cause serious injury in the event of an accident. Periodically inspect seat belt assemblies for excessive wear and damage. Seat belts should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged in any way. It is essential to replace the entire seat belt assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact, even if damage to the assembly is not obvious. Children aged 12 and under should ride properly restrained in the rear seat. Infants and small children should never be transported unless they are properly restrained. Restraint systems for infants and small chil• dren can be purchased locally and should be used. Check that the system you purchase meets appli• cable safety standards. Read and follow all the directions provided by the manufacturer. (Continued)
A. WARNING
(Continued) For child, if the seat belt irritates the neck or face, use a child restraint system appropriately for the child. The seat belts of your vehicle are principally designed for persons of adult size. Avoid contamination of seat belt webbing by polishes, oils, chemi• cals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out using mild soap and water. • Do not insert any items such as coins and clips into the seat belt buckles, and be careful not to spill liquids into these parts. If foreign materials get into a seat belt buckle, the seat belt may not work properly. All seatbacks should always be in an upright position when driving, or seat belt effectiveness may be reduced. Seat belts are designed to offer maximum protection when seatbacks are in the upright posi•
tion.

Lap-shoulder belt
Emergency locking retractor {ELR) The seat belt has an emergency locking retractor {ELR), which is designed to lock the seat belt only during a sudden stop or impact. It also may lock if you pull the belt across your body very quickly. If this hap­pens, let the belt go back to unlock it, and then pull the belt across your body more slowly.
Sit up straight and fully back
Low on hips

To reduce the risk of sliding under the belt during a collision, position the lap portion of the belt across your lap as low on your hips as possible and adjust it to a snug fit by pulling the shoulder portion of the belt upward through the latch plate. The length of the diagonal shoulder strap adjusts itself to allow freedom of movement.
FOR SAFE DRIVING

Lap-shoulder belt with detachable
connector (if equipped)
The rear lap-shoulder belt has a buckle, a latch plate and a detachable connector. The rear seat belt buckle and the connec­tor are designed so as not to allow a wrong latch plate to be inserted.
When the rear seatback is in the upright position, keep the detachable connector latched. Only when the rear seatback is folded down, unlatch the detachable con­nector. To latch and unlatch the connector, refer to "Unlatching and latching detach­able connector" in this section.
78RB02015
Fastening Before fastening the rear lap-shoulder belt, check the following precautions. The detachable connector (1) is securely
latched. The webbing is not twisted. The rear lap-shoulder belt is not put through the seat belt hanger.
To fasten the belt, sit up straight and far back into the seat, pull the latch plate (2) across your body and press it straight into the buckle (3) until you hear a click.
