Essential Safety Equipment
Seats
CAUTION
When operating a seat, be careful not to
put your hands or fingers near the
moving parts of the seat or on the side
trim to prevent injury.
When moving the seats, make sure there
is no cargo in the surrounding area. If the
cargo gets caught it could damage the
cargo.
(Manual Seat)
When moving the seats forward and
rearward or returning a rear-reclined
seatback to its upright position, make
sure you hold onto the seatback with
your hand while operating. If the
seatback is not held, the seat will move
suddenly and could cause injury.
When inserting your hand under the seat
to clean the cabin or pick up something
you dropped under the seat, be careful
not to hurt yourself. If you contact the
moving parts of the seat rail or seat
frame, it could result in injury.
NOTE
When returning a rear seat to its

original position, place the seat belt in
its normal position. Verify that the seat
belt pulls out and retracts.

The seat-bottom power adjustment is
operated by motors. Avoid extended
operation because excessive use can
damage the motors.
To prevent the battery from running

down, avoid using the power
adjustment when the engine is
stopped. The adjuster uses a large
amount of electrical power.
