Seat and restraint systems

Third row seat (Seating 7 passengers)

The third row seat can be used for two additional passengers.
When the third row seat is not in use, it can be stowed under
the floor to provide more cargo area.
WARNING
!
The third row seats are intended for use by no more
than two belted occupants, each of which does not
2
exceed 160 cm (63 inches) in height.
Exceeding these limitations can result in an
increased risk of personal injury or death in the
event of an accident.
The third row seats are not intended for use by
infants and small children who must use rear facing
or forward facing child safety seats.
Third row seat operation should always be made
before driving. Operating the seat while driving
could cause the seat to move more than necessary
and result in a serious injury or death.
Before using, check that the third row seat is firmly
secured. If not secured, the third row seat could
move and cause a serious injury or death in an acci-
dent.
The third row seat should not be used when the sec-
ond row seats are folded forward. Third row seat
passengers can suffer a serious or fatal injury if the
second row seats fell backward in a collision or when
heavy breaking is applied.

The third row seat should be adjusted only by an
adult. If it is adjusted by a child, an unexpected acci-
dent might occur.

will remain hot for some time after the engine is
stopped.
