Never leave anyone (particularly
a small child) alone in your ve-
hicle, especially with the ignition
key still inserted. Otherwise, he
or she could use the moon roof
switches and get trapped in the
roof opening. Unattended person
(particularly a small child) can
be involved in a serious acci-
dent.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.
Never try jamming any part of
your body to activate the jam
protection function intentionally.
The jam protection function may
not work when something gets
caught just before the moon roof
is fully closed.

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 any passen-
gers to sit on top of a folded
down seatback, or in the lug-
gage compartment or cargo area.
Persons not properly seated and/
or not properly restrained by
seat belts can be severely in-
jured in the event of emergency
braking or a collision.
During driving, do not allow any
passengers 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.
Front seats—
—Front seat precautions

36
2004 L/C100 from Aug ’03 Prod. (OM60A04U)
Front passenger seat
CAUTION
The SRS front passenger airbag also
deploys with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious injury es-
pecially if the front passenger is very
close to the airbag. The front passen-
ger seat should be as far from the
airbag as possible with the seatback
adjusted, so the front passenger sits
upright.
Front seats (with SRS side airbags)
CAUTION
The SRS side airbags are installed in
the driver and front passenger seats.
Observe the following precautions.
Do not lean against the front door
when the vehicle is in use, since
the side airbag inflates with consid-
erable speed and force. Otherwise,
you may be killed or seriously in-
jured.
Do not use seat accessories which
cover the area where the side air-
bags inflate. Such accessories may
prevent the side airbags from acti-
vating correctly, causing death or
serious injury.
Do not modify or replace the seats
or upholstery of the seats equipped
with side airbags. Such change may
prevent the side airbag system from
activating correctly, disable the sys-
tem or cause the side airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in
death or serious injury.

precautions

2004 L/C100 from Aug ’03 Prod. (OM60A04U)
Do not adjust the seat while the
vehicle is moving as the seat
may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control
of the vehicle.
Be careful that the seat does not
hit a passenger or luggage.
After adjusting the seat position,
try sliding the seat forward and
backward to make sure it is
locked in position.
After adjusting the seatback,
push your body back against the
seat to make sure the seat is
locked in position.
Do not put objects under the
seats. Otherwise, the objects
may interfere with the seatlock
mechanism and the seat may
suddenly move, causing the driv-
er to lose control of the vehicle.
While adjusting the seat, do not
put your hands under the seat
or near the moving parts. Other-
wise, your hands or fingers may
be caught and injured.
I13380b
1. SEAT POSITION AND SEAT CUSHIONANGLE ADJUSTING SWITCH
Move the control switch in the desired
direction.
Releasing the switch will stop the seat at
that position.
Do not place anything under the front
seats, as this might interfere with the seat
movement. 2. SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING SWITCH

2004 L/C100 from Aug ’03 Prod. (OM60A04U)
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, avoid
reclining the seatback any more than
needed. The seat belts provide maxi-
mum protection in a frontal or rear
collision when the driver and the
front passenger are sitting up straight
and well back in the seats. If you are
reclined, the lap belt may slide past
your hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen. In the event
of a frontal collision, the more the
seat is reclined, the greater the risk
of personal injury.
3. SEAT LUMBAR SUPPORT ADJUST-ING SWITCH
Push the control switch on either side.
The amount of lumbar support will change
while the switch is pushed.
Armrest
To use the armrest, pull it down as
shown above.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the armrest,
avoid putting heavy loads on it.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the seat while the
vehicle is moving.
Be careful that the seat does not
hit a passenger or luggage.
After adjusting the seatback,
push your body back against the
seat to make sure the seat is
locked in position.
When returning seats to their
original position, observe the fol-
lowing in order to prevent per-
sonal injury in a collision or
sudden stop:
Make sure the seat is securely
locked by pushing forward and rear-
ward on the top of the seatback
and by trying to pull up the edge
of the bottom cushion. Failure to
do so will prevent seat belt from
operating properly.
Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught under the seat
and are arranged in their proper
position and are ready to use.
Rear seats—

Tumbling the seats will enlarge the lug-
gage compartment. See “Cargo and lug-
gage” on page 229 for precautions when
loading luggage.

CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding un-
der the lap belt during a colli-
sion, avoid reclining the seat-
back any more than needed. The
seat belts provide maximum
protection in a frontal or rear
collision when the second seat
passengers are sitting up
straight and well back in the
seats. If you are reclined, the lap
belt may slide past your hips
and apply restraint forces direct-
ly to the abdomen. Therefore, in
the event of a frontal collision,
the more the seat is reclined, the
greater the risk of personal inju-
ry.
Do not adjust the seat while the
vehicle is moving.
After adjusting the seatback,
push your body back against the
seat to make sure the seat is
locked in position.
For easy access to the third seat, do
this;1. Lower the head restraint to the low- est position.
2. Push the seatback angle adjusting lever and pull the seat cushion lock
release lever or pull the strap.
After passengers are in, return the seat
until it locks.
CAUTION
After returning the seat, make sure
the seat is securely locked by push-
ing forward and rearward on the top
of the seatback and by trying to pull
up the edge of the bottom cushion.

2. Make sure the shoulder belt passes through the hanger when folding the
second seat.
This prevents the shoulder belt from being
damaged.
CAUTION
The seat belt must be removed from
the hanger when the seat belt is in
use.
TUMBLING SECOND SEAT 1. Lower the outer head restraint to the lowest position and pull up the cen-
ter head restraint. Unlock the seat-
back and fold it down.
Tumbling the rear seats will enlarge the
luggage compartment. See “Cargo and

original position, remove the seat hook
covers from the floor and install them in
the back of the seat cushion.
