CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
Before you close the power win-
dows, always make sure there is no-
body around the power windows.
You must also make sure the heads,
hands and other parts of the bodies
of all occupants are kept completely
inside the vehicle. If someone’s
neck, head or hands get caught in a
closing window, it could result in a
serious injury. When anyone closes
the power windows, make sure that
he or she operates the windows
safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
window switches without supervi-
sion. Use the window lock switch to
prevent them from making unex-
pected use of the switches.
Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni-
tion key still inserted. They could
use the power window switches and
get trapped in a window. Unat-
tended children can become in-
volved in serious accidents.

To open the trunk lid from the outside,
insert the master key and turn it clock-
wise.
See “Luggage stowage precautions” on
page 160 in Section 3 for precautions to
observe in loading luggage.
To close the trunk lid, lower it and press
down on it. After closing the trunk lid, try
pulling it up to make sure it is securely
closed.
CAUTION
Keep the trunk lid closed while driv-
ing. This not only keeps the luggage
from being thrown out, but also pre-
vents exhaust gases from entering
the vehicle.
Always lock the trunk lid and all
doors, and keep away the vehicle
keys out of children’s reaches.
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Unsupervised children
may lock themselves in the vehicle
or trunk and suffer serious injuries
or death.

1. To open the fuel filler door, pull thelever up.
When refueling, turn off the hybrid
system.
CAUTION
Do not smoke, cause spark or allow
open flames when refueling. The
fumes are flammable.
When opening the cap, do not re-
move the cap quickly. In hot weath-
er, fuel under pressure could cause
injury by spraying out the filler
neck if the cap is suddenly re-
moved.
Insert the fuel nozzle fully, or fuel
may splash out.
21p031c
2. To remove the fuel tank cap, turnthe cap slowly counterclockwise,
then pause slightly before removing
it. After removing the cap, hang it
on the cap hanger.

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.
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 should inflate. Such accesso-
ries may prevent the side airbags
from activating correctly, causing
death or serious injury.
Do not modify or replace the seats
or surface of front seats with side
airbags. Such changes may prevent
the side airbags from activating
correctly, disable the system or
cause the side airbags to inflate,
resulting in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Adjustments should not be made
while the vehicle is moving, as the
seat may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control of
the vehicle.
When adjusting the seat, be careful
that the seat does not hit a passen-
ger or luggage.
After adjusting the seat position, re-
lease the lever and try sliding the
seat forward and backward to make
sure it is locked in position.
After adjusting the seatback, push
your body 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 or
unexpectedly push up the seat posi-
tion adjusting lever and the seat
may suddenly move, causing the
driver to lose control of the vehicle.

22p043a
CAUTION
Never put a rearfacing child re-
straint system on the front passen-
ger seat because the force of the
rapid inflation of the front passen-
ger airbag can cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child.
22p044
Move seat
fully back
A forwardfacing child restraint sys-
tem should be allowed to be put on
the front seat only when it is un-
avoidable. Always move the seat as
far back as possible, because the
force of the deploying airbag could
cause death or serious injury to the
child.
On vehicles with side airbags, do
not allow the child to lean against
the front door or around the front
door even if the child is seated in
the child restraint system. It is dan-
gerous if the side airbag inflates,
and the impact could cause death
or serious injury to the child.
22p036d
CAUTION
Do not put a child restraint system
on the rear seat if it interferes with
the lock mechanism of the front
seats. This can cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child and front
passenger in case of sudden brak-
ing or a collision.
If the driver ’s seat position does
not allow sufficient space for safe
installation, install the child re-
straint system on the rear right
seat.

bag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, side airbag sensors, front seat belt
