Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he or she
could use the power window
switches and get trapped in a win-
dow. Unattended person (particular-
ly a small child) can be involved in
a serious accident.
Never try jamming any part of your
body in a window to activate the
jam protection function intention-
ally.
The jam protection function may
not work if something gets caught
just before the window is fully
closed.
Power quarter windows
The rear quarter windows can be oper-
ated with the ”REAR VENT” switches
on the instrument panel.
The power rear quarter windows work
when the ignition switch is in the ”ON”
position.
Both left and right rear quarter windows
move as long as you hold the switch.
To open: Push the right one of the
switches.
To close: Push the left one of the
switches.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
Before you close the power quarter
windows, always make sure there is
nobody around the power quarter
windows. You must also make sure
the hands and other parts of the
bodies of all occupants are kept
completely inside the vehicle. If
someone’s hands get caught in a
closing window, it could result in a
serious injury. When anyone closes
the power quarter windows, make
sure he or she operates the win-
dows safely.
Be sure to remove the ignition key
when you leave your vehicle.
Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he or she
could use the power quarter win-
dow switches and get trapped in a
window. Unattended person (particu-
larly a small child) can be involved
in a serious accident.

Seats
While the vehicle is being driven, all ve-
hicle occupants should have the seatback
upright, sit well back in the seat and prop-
erly wear the seat belts provided.
CAUTION
Do not drive the vehicle unless the
occupants are properly seated. Do
not allow passengers to sit on top
of a foldeddown seatback, or in
the luggage compartment or cargo
area. Persons not properly seated
and/or not properly restrained by
seat belts can be severely injured
in the event of emergency braking
or a collision.
During driving, do not allow pas-
sengers to stand up or move
around between seats. Otherwise,
severe injuries can occur in the
event of emergency braking or a
collision.
Driver seat
CAUTION
The SRS driver airbag deploys with
considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if
the driver is very close to the airbag.
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (”NHTSA”) advises:
Since the risk zone for driver airbag
is the first 5075 mm (23 in.) of
inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10
in.) from your driver airbag provides
you with a clear margin of safety.
This distance is measured from the
center of the steering wheel to your
breastbone. If you sit less than 250
mm (10 in.) away now, you can
change your driving position in sever-
al ways:
Move your seat to the rear as far
as you can while still reaching the
pedals comfortably.
Slightly recline the back of the
seat. Although vehicle designs vary,
many drivers can achieve the 250
mm (10 in.) distance, even with the
driver seat all the way forward, sim-
ply by reclining the back of the
seat somewhat. If reclining the back
of your seat makes it hard to see
the road, raise yourself by using a
firm, nonslippery cushion, or raise
the seat if your vehicle has that
feature.
If your steering wheel is adjustable,
tilt it downward. This points the air-
bag toward your chest instead of
your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as rec-
ommended by NHTSA above, while
still maintaining control of the foot
pedals, steering wheel, and your view
of the instrument panel controls.

ing.
