Safety features of your vehicle
could result because the seat belt
can't operate normally.
僅 Never attempt to adjust any seat
while the vehicle is moving. This could
result in loss of control, and an acci-
dent causing death, serious injury, or
property damage.
僅 Do not allow anything to interfere with
the normal position of the seatback.
Storing items against a seatback or in
any other way interfering with proper
locking of a seatback could result in
serious or fatal injury in a sudden stop
or collision.
僅 Always drive and ride with your seat-
back upright and the lap portion of
the seat belt snug and low across the
hips. This is the best position to pro-
tect you in case of an accident.
僅 In order to avoid unnecessary and
perhaps severe air bag injuries,
always sit as far back as possible from
the steering wheel while maintaining
comfortable control of the vehicle. We
recommend that your chest is at least
250 mm (10 inches) away from the
steering wheel.
僅 The rear seatback must be securely
latched. If not, passengers and objects
could be thrown forward resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of
a sudden stop or collision.
僅 Luggage and other cargo should be
laid flat in the cargo area. If objects
are large, heavy, or must be piled,
they must be secured. Under no cir-
cumstances should cargo be piled
higher than the seatbacks. Failure to
follow these warnings could result in
serious injury or death in the event of
a sudden stop, collision or rollover.
僅 No passenger should ride in the cargo
area or sit or lie on folded seatbacks
while the vehicle is moving. All pas-
sengers must be properly seated in
seats and restrained properly while
riding.
僅 When resetting the seatback to the
upright position, make sure it is
securely latched by pushing it forward
and backwards.
僅 After adjusting the seat, always check
that it is securely locked into place by
attempting to move the seat forward
or backward without using the lock
release lever. Sudden or unexpected
movement of the driver's seat could
cause you to lose control of the vehi-
cle resulting in an accident.
僅 Do not adjust the seat while wearing
seat belts. Moving the seat cushion
forward may cause strong pressure
on the abdomen.
僅 Use extreme caution so that hands or
other objects are not caught in the
seat mechanisms while the seat is
moving.
僅 Do not put a cigarette lighter on the
floor or seat. When you operate the
seat, gas may gush out of the lighter
and cause fire.
僅 If there are occupants in the rear
seats, be careful while adjusting the
front seat position.
僅 Use extreme caution when picking
small objects trapped under the seats
or between the seat and the center
console. Your hands might be cut or
injured by the sharp edges of the seat
mechanism.
僅 The power seat is operable with the
EV button in OFF position. Therefore,
children should never be left unat-
tended in the car.
