Before driving
Moving front passenger seat for rear seat entry (3-door models only)
■Getting in or out the vehicle
For easy access to the rear seat , use the seatback lock release
lever or seatback angl e adjustment lever. When the seatback lock
release lever or seatback angle adjustment lever is used, the
seat’s original slide position is memorized, so the seat may be
returned to that original positi on. The seatback will be returned to
the fully upright position.
Lift the seatback lock release
lever or seatback angle adjust-
ment lever.
The seatback will fold forward,
and the seat’s slide lock will be
released.
Move the seat all the way for-
ward.
■Seat slide position memory function (3-door models only)
Slide the seat backward and then lift the seatback. The seat will be set and
locked to its previous slide position automatically, and the seatback will be
returned to the fully upright position.
In the following situations, the seat slide position memory will not be saved
or will be overwritten.
●The seatback is lifted upright at a slide position farther forward than the
memorized position.
● The seat slide position is memorized when the seat is slid all the way or
nearly all the way forward.
● The seat is slid farther back than the memorized position by using the
seat position adjustment lever.
■ If the seat cannot be returned to the memorized slide position
Lift the seatback lock release lever or seatback angle adjustment lever after
removing the luggage, or after having the passenger get out or sit properly
so that the seat can be slid back to the previous position.

CAUTION
■Seat adjustment
●Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
● To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
● Never allow anyone to touch seatback lock release levers while the vehi-
cle is moving.
● If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are clear of the seat back path
and let them know that the seat is about to move.
■ After returning the seatback to the upright position
Make sure the seatback is securely locked by pushing it forward and rear-
ward. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■ To prevent the seat lock mechanism malfunction
Do not use the seatback angle adjustment lever and seatback lock release
lever at the same time. If they are used together, the seat lock mechanism
may be damaged.
