WARNING

Improperly using the seat heater can

be hazardous. An occupant can suf-

fer burns even if the heating tempera-

ture is fairly low, if the occupant

wears thin pants, a thin skirt or

shorts and leaves the heater on for

long periods.

Avoid using the seat heater for these

occupants:

• People who have reduced feeling in

their legs, including the elderly or

those with certain disabilities.

• Small children or anyone with sen-

sitive skin.

• People who are asleep or under the

influence of alcohol or other drugs

which make them tired.

NOTICE

To avoid damaging the heater ele-

ment:

• Do not subject the front seats to

heavy impacts, such as children

jumping on them.

• Do not cover the seat with any

insulating materials such as blan-

kets or cushions.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

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.

WARNING

Do not place any object under the

rear seat equipped with the seat posi-

tion adjustment lever. If an object

becomes caught under the rear seat,

the seat will not be latched.

Seatback angle adjustment lever (2)

(if equipped)

Pull the lever up and move the seatback.

After adjustment, move the seat and seat-

back forward and backward to check that it

Head restraints

Head restraints are designed to help

reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case

of an accident.

NOTE:

It may be necessary to fold forward the

seatback to provide enough overhead

clearance to remove the head restraint.

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 passengers,

adjust the head restraint as high as possi-

ble.

Rear

75RM006

To raise the rear head restraint, pull

upward the head restraint until it clicks. To

lower the head restraint, push down the

head restraint while holding in the lock

lever. If a head restraint must be removed

(for cleaning, replacement, etc.), push in

the lock lever and pull the head restraint all

the way out.

When installing a child restraint system,

adjust the height of the head restraint or

remove it for fitting the child restraint, as

necessary.

Folding rear seats

The rear seats of your vehicle can be

folded forward to provide additional cargo

To fold the rear seats forward:

1) Lower the head restraint fully.

shoulder belts and the latch plates in

the belt hangers.

Type A

3) Pull the release lever on the top of seat,

and fold the seatback forward.

To return the seat to the normal position,

follow the procedure below.

EXAMPLE

NOTICE

After folding the rear seatback for-

ward, do not allow any foreign mate-

rial to enter the lock opening. This

may cause damage to the inside of

the lock and prevent the seatback

from being locked securely.

WARNING

If you need to carry cargo in the pas-

senger compartment with the rear

seatback folded forward, secure the

cargo or it may be thrown about,

causing injury. Never pile cargo

higher than the seatbacks.

CAUTION

When returning the rear seatback to

the normal position, be careful that

your finger is not caught between the

lock and the striker.

Type A

Type B

75RM104

Raise the seatback until it locks into place.

After returning the seat, move the seat-

back forward and backward to check that it

is securely latched.

NOTICE

• When returning the rear seatback to

the normal position, check that there

is nothing around the striker. Any

foreign materials prevent the seat-

back from being locked securely.

• When you move a seatback, make

sure the belt webbing is hooked in

the seat belt hangers so the seat

belts are not caught by the seat-

back, seat hinge, or seat latch. This

helps prevent damage to the belt

system.

• Make sure the belt webbing is not

twisted.

CAUTION

Do not put your hand into the rear

may get caught and be injured.

CAUTION

After securing the rear seatback,

check that it is locked securely. For

type A seat, if it is not, red will appear

in the release lever.

EXAMPLE

NOTICE

• When returning the rear seatback

to the normal position, do not allow

any foreign material to enter the

lock opening. This may prevent the

seatback from being locked

securely.

• When returning the rear seatback

to the normal position, handle it

carefully by hand to avoid any dam-

age to the lock itself. Do not push it

by using some material or by

applying excessive force.

• As the lock is designed exclusively

for securing the rear seatback, do

not use it for any other purpose.

Incorrect use of it may cause dam-

age to the inside of the lock and

prevent the seatback from being

locked securely.
