Safety features of your vehicle
CAUTION -
Damaging rear
seat belt buckles
When you fold the rear (2nd and/or
3rd row) seatback or put luggage on
the rear (2nd and/or 3rd row) seat
cushion, insert the buckle in the
pocket between the rear seatback
and cushion. Doing so can prevent
the buckle from being damaged by
the rear seatback or luggage.
CAUTION
- Rear seat belts
When returning the rear (2nd and /or
3rd row) seatbacks to the upright
position, remember to return the
rear shoulder belts to their proper
position. Routing the seat belt web-
bing through the rear seat belt
guides will help keep the belts from
being trapped behind or under the
seats.

WARNING
- Cargo
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about
the vehicle in a collision and caus-
ing injury to the vehicle occupants.
Special care of objects should be
taken when placing them in the rear
(2nd and/or 3rd row) seats, since
those may hit the front seat occu-
pants in a frontal collision.
WARNING -
Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
automatic transaxle is in P (Park)
and the parking brake is applied
whenever loading or unloading
cargo. Failure to take these steps
may allow the vehicle to move if
shift lever is inadvertently moved to
another position.
