– CONTINUED –

NOTE

While adjusting the seatback, you can not at the same time adjust

the seat position or the seat cushion angle and height.

B Head restraint adjustment

HB1016BA

To raise the head restraint, pull it up. To lower it, push the head

restraint down while pressing the release button on the top of the

seatback.

The head restraint should be adjusted so that the center of the head

restraint is closest to the top of the occupant’s ears.

NOTE

If the seatback is reclined rearward to the same level as the rear

seat cushion with the head restraint removed, a wide flat bed is

made available.

WARNING

D Never drive your car with the seats converted in a flat bed

position. If you do so, occupants will have a greater chance of

being injured even during simple deceleration, acceleration and

cornering since no firm restraint will be available for them.

D Before you lie on the flat bed to take a rest, read the descrip-

tion “Parking your vehicle” in Chapter 7 carefully and follow the

instructions.
