and so that your arms bend
slightly at the elbow when
gripping the steering wheel.
( P.144)
Lock the head restraint in
place with the center of the
head restraint closest to the
top of your ears. ( P.155)
Wear the seat belt correctly.
( P.29)

securely fixed in the correct
place with all the provided
retaining hooks (clips). Be espe-
cially careful to perform this

Owners Manual_USA_M0C043_en

wearing their seat belts before
driving the vehicle. (P.29)

appropriate for the child until the child becomes large enough to
properly wear the vehicle’s seat
belt. (
P.54)

ing the inside rear view mirror (if

WARNING
■For safe driving
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so m ay result in
death or serious injury.
●Do not adjust the position of the
driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver
to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between
the driver or passenger and the
seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct
posture from being achieved,
and reduce the effectiveness of
the seat belt and head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the
front seats.
Objects placed under the front
seats may become jammed in
the seat tracks and stop the
seat from locking in place. This
may lead to an accident and the
adjustment mechanism may
also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed
limit when driving on public
roads.
●When driving over long dis-
tances, take regular breaks
before you start to feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy
while driving, do not force your-
self to continue driving and take
a break immediately.
