WARNING - Loose objects

WARNING - Driver respon-

sibility for front seat pas-

senger

WARNING - Driver’s seat

• Never attempt to adjust seat

while the vehicle is moving. This

could result in loss of control,

and an accident causing death,

serious injury, or property dam-

age.

Loose objects in the driver’s foot

area could interfere with the opera-

tion of the foot pedals, possibly

causing an accident. Do not place

anything under the front seats.

Riding in a vehicle with a front seat-

back reclined could lead to serious

or fatal injury in an accident. If a

front seat is reclined during an

accident, the occupant’s hips may

slide under the lap portion of the

seat belt applying great force to the

unprotected abdomen. Serious or

fatal internal injuries could result.

The driver must advise the front

passenger to keep the seatback in

an upright position whenever the

vehicle is in motion.

• 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.

WARNING - Uprighting

seat

When you return the seatback to its

upright position, hold the seatback

and return it slowly and be sure

there are no other occupants

around the seat. If the seatback is

returned without being held and

controlled, the back of the seat

could spring forward resulting in

accidental injury to a person struck

by the seatback.

• Always drive and ride with your

seatback upright and the lap por-

tion of the seat belt snug and low

across the hips. This is the best

position to protect you in case of

an accident.

• 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. It is recom-

mended that your chest is at least

250 mm (10 inches) away from

the steering wheel.

Headrest

WARNING

The driver's and front passenger's seats

are equipped with a headrest for the

occupant's safety and comfort.

• For maximum effectiveness in

case of an accident, the headrest

should be adjusted so the middle

of the headrest is at the same

height of the center of gravity of

an occupant's head. Generally,

the center of gravity of most peo-

ple's head is similar with the

height of the top of their eyes.

Also, adjust the headrest as close

to your head as possible. For this

reason, the use of a cushion that

holds the body away from the

seatback is not recommended.

The headrest not only provides comfort

for the driver and front passenger, but

also helps to protect the head and neck

in the event of a collision.

OFD030004

C010103AUN

Seat cushion height (for driver’s seat)

(if equipped)

• Do not operate the vehicle with

the headrests removed as severe

injury to the occupants may

occur in the event of an accident.

Headrests may provide protec-

tion against neck injuries when

properly adjusted.

To change the height of the seat cushion,

push the lever that is located on the out-

side of the seat cushion upwards or

downwards.

• To lower the seat cushion, push down

the lever several times.

• To raise the seat cushion, pull up the

lever several times.

• Do not adjust the headrest posi-

tion of the driver's seat while the

vehicle is in motion.

desired position (1). To lower the head-

rest, push and hold the release button (2)

on the headrest support and lower the

headrest to the desired position (3).

rest forward to the desired detent. To

adjust the headrest to it’s furthest back-

wards position, pull it fully forward to the

farthest position and release it. Adjust the

headrest so that it properly supports the

head and neck.

WARNING

A gap between the seat and the

headrest release button may

appear when seating on the seat or

when you push or pull the seat. Be

careful not to get your finger, etc.

caught in the gap.

CAUTION

Folding the rear seat

• Make sure the engine is off, the

transaxle is in P and the parking

brake is applied whenever load-

ing or unloading cargo. Vehicle

may move if shift lever is inadver-

tently moved to another position.

The rear seatbacks (or cushions) may be

folded to facilitate carrying long items or

to increase the luggage capacity of the

vehicle.

WARNING

• Be careful when loading cargo

through the rear passenger seats

to prevent damage to the vehicle

interior.

The purpose of the fold-down rear

seatbacks (or cushions) is to allow

you to carry longer objects than

could otherwise be accommodated.

OFD037007

• When cargo is loaded through the

rear passenger seats, ensure the

cargo is properly secured to pre-

vent it from moving while driving.

Unsecured cargo in the passen-

ger compartment can cause dam-

age to the vehicle or injury to it’s

occupants.

Never allow passengers to sit on

top of the folded down seatback

while the car is moving as this is

not a proper seating position and

no seat belts are available for use.

This could result in serious injury

or death in case of an accident or

sudden stop. Objects carried on the

folded down seatback should not

extend higher than the top of the

front seats. This could allow cargo

to slide forward and cause injury or

damage during sudden stops.

Armrest (if equipped)

To use the armrest, pull it forward from

the seatback.

WARNING

WARNING - Cargo

When you return the rear seatback

to its upright position after being

folded down:

Cargo should always be secured to

prevent it from being thrown about

the vehicle in a collision and caus-

ing injury to the vehicle occupants.

Special care should be taken of

objects placed in the rear seats,

since those may hit the front seat

occupants in a frontal collision.

Be careful not to damage the seat

belt webbing or buckle. Do not

allow the seat belt webbing or

buckle to get caught or pinched in

the rear seat. Ensure that the seat-

back is completely locked into its

upright position by pushing on the

top of the seatback. Otherwise, in

an accident or sudden stop, the

seat could fold down and allow

cargo to enter the passenger com-

partment, which could result in

serious injury or death.
