WARNING  
CAUTION  
Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or  
with adult supervision for correct and safe  
operation.  
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.  
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.  
Front seats  
Manual type  
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.  
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.  
To minimize the risk of personal injury in  
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.

When sliding the seats, be careful not to  
catch your hand or foot.

When adjusting the front seat while the rear  
seat is folded, be careful not to apply strong  
force to the flipped rear seat cushion.  
Doing so could cause damage to the cover of  
the front seat and the fitting of the rear seat  
cushion.  
Do not place objects under the seats. This  
could prevent the seat from locking se-  
curely, and it could lead to an accident. It  
may also cause damage to the seat or oth-  
er parts.
