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.

3) For the split seat, pull the release strap on the top of each split seat, and fold the seatbacks forward. For the bench seat, pull the both release straps on the fop of the bench seat together, and fold the seatback for­ward.

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.

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

60A040
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
60A036
To fasten the seat belt, sit up straight and far back into the seat, pull the latch plate attached to the seat belt across your body and press it straight into the buckle until you hear a click.
