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.
—Seat adjustment precautions
CAUTION

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, 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 back against the seat to
make sure the seat is locked in
position.

Do not put objects under the seats
except for putting them in the auxil-
iary box. Otherwise, the objects
may interfere with the seat−lock
mechanism or unexpectedly push
up the seat position adjusting lever
and the seat may suddenly move,
causing the driver to lose control of
the vehicle.

While adjusting the seat, do not put
your hands under the seat or near
the moving parts. Otherwise, your
hands or fingers may be caught and
injured.
