Seat Adjustment - Mitsubishi Outlander 2015 Owner's Manual

Making a luggage area

Seat adjustment

Adjust the driver's seat so that you are com-
fortable and that you can reach the pedals,
steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining
a clear field of vision.
WARNING
l Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.
l Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equip-
ped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehi-
cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.

WARNING
l To minimize the risk of personal injury in
E00400301715
the event of a collision or sudden braking,
the seatbacks should always be in the al-
most upright position while the vehicle is
in motion. The protection provided by the
seat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in-
jury, when the seatback is reclined.
CAUTION
l Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe
operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving.
The effectiveness of the head restraints will
be reduced in the event of an accident.

CAUTION
The reclining mechanism of the front seat's
seatback is spring loaded, causing it to return
to the vertical position when the lock lever is
operated. When using the lever, sit close to
the seatback or hold it with your hand to
control its return motion.
When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.
When adjusting the front seat while the sec-
ond seat is folded, be careful not to apply
strong force to the flipped second seat cush-
ion.
Doing so could cause damage to the cover of
the front seat and the fitting of the second
seat cushion.
