Making a luggage compartment

E00403400231
WARNING
l When making a luggage compartment,
never arrange the seats while the vehicle
is being driven or is on an incline. The
seats could move unexpectedly or more
than required and cause a serious accident.
l
If required, always operate the seating be-
fore the vehicle is in motion.
l Do not allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage compartment while the vehicle is in
motion. People who are not properly seat-
ed and restrained can be seriously in-
jured or killed in an accident.
l The luggage compartment in the rear of
the vehicle should never be used as a play
area by children.
Children should be seated with seat belts
fastened when the vehicle is in motion.
l Confirm that the seatback locks securely
when it is returned.
CAUTION
l Do not stack luggage in the vehicle higher
than the seatback height. Also, firmly se-
cure the luggage.
Serious accidents could result due to un-
restrained objects entering the passenger
compartment during sudden braking.
l
Make sure that the seat is operated by an
adult. If it is operated by a child, an unex-
pected accident might occur.

CAUTION
l
Be careful not to catch your hands or feet
when arranging the seat. Personal injury
could result.
