Essential Safety Equipment

Seats

Make sure there is nobody in the rear

seat area before operating (pulling) the

remote handle levers (Vehicles with

remote handle):

CAUTION

Ø When operating the rear seatback

knob, make sure you support the

seatback with your hand. If the

seatback is not supported with

your hand, it will flip forward

suddenly and could cause injury to

the finger that pushes the rear

seatback knob down.

Ø (Vehicles with remote handle)

Before folding the seatbacks down

with the remote handle levers,

make sure there is no cup in a rear

cup holder. Folding the seatbacks

with the remote handle levers

while a cup is in the cup holder

could soil or damage the seat

bottom and seatback.

Not checking the rear seat area for

persons before folding the seatbacks

with the strap/remote handle levers

is dangerous. The rear seat area is

difficult to see from the rear of the

vehicle. Operating (pulling) the

remote handle levers without

checking could cause injury to a

person when a seatback suddenly

flips forward.

Ø (Vehicles with remote handle)

Be careful of the following when

using the remote handle levers:

Ø

On a downward slope, the

seatback could flip forward

faster than on a flat surface.

On an upward slope, the

seatback may not fold down.

When the seatbacks cannot be

folded down with levers, pull

the rear seatback forward from

inside the vehicle.

Folding both seatbacks down

CAUTION

(Folding the left seatback)

CAUTION

Be careful when operating the remote

handle with the center seat folded

down. If a person sitting in the right

rear seat places a hand on the center

seat, it could be pinched by a

seatback or seat component causing

injury.

Check the position of a front seat

before folding a rear seatback.

Depending on the position of a front

seat, it may not be possible to fold a

rear seatback all the way down

because it may hit the seatback of

the front seat which could scratch or

damage the front seat or its pocket.

Lower or remove the head restraint

on the rear outboard seat if

necessary.

Using remote handle^í

After checking that the rear seats are clear,

open the liftgate and lower the seatback

you want to fold down using the remote

handle.

When folding the left side, operate the

outer part of the remote handle.

Using push knob

Push the rear seatback knob down.

2. After checking that the center seat is

clear, open the liftgate and pull the

inside remote handle levers on the left

side of the liftgate compartment.

WARNING

Always make sure the seat belts are

fully pulled out from under the

seatbacks:

A seat belt caught under a seatback

after the seatback is returned to its

upright position is dangerous. In a

collision or sudden stop, the seat belt

cannot provide adequate protection.

When returning the seatback to the

upright position, make sure there is no

red indication:

A rear seatback not fully returned

and locked in the upright position is

dangerous. Sudden stops or

maneuvering could cause a seatback

to flip forward suddenly resulting in

injury. If the red indicator is visible on

the back of the rear seatback knob,

the seatback is not locked in the

upright position.

Using strap

1. If the center head restraint is in the

position for use, store it.

2. Pull the strap on the back of the

seatback to fold the seatback forward.
