To avoid excessive seat belt slack,  
which reduces the effectiveness of  
the seat belts as a safety device,  
check that the seats are adjusted  
before the seat belts are fastened.  
You can fold the mirrors when you park the  
vehicle in a narrow space. When the igni-  
tion switch is in “ACC” or “ON” position, or  
the ignition mode is “ACC” or “ON”, push  
the folding switch (1) to fold and unfold the  
mirrors. Check that the mirrors are com-  
pletely unfolded before you start driving.  
WARNING  
CAUTION  
All seatbacks should always be in an  
upright position when driving, or seat  
belt effectiveness may be reduced.  
Seat belts are designed to offer maxi-  
mum protection when seatbacks are  
in the upright position.  
Moving mirrors can pinch and injure  
a hand. Do not allow anyone’s hand  
to get near the mirrors when folding  
and unfolding the mirrors.

Head restraints are designed to help  
reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case  
of an accident. Adjust the head restraint to  
the position which places the center of the  
head restraint closest to the top of your  
ears. If this is not possible for very tall pas-  
sengers, adjust the head restraint as high  
as possible.

must be removed (for cleaning, replace-  
ment, etc.), push in the lock lever and pull  
the head restraint all the way out.  
When the ignition switch is in “ON” position
