If the front center armrest is opened all the way or not completely closed, it can limit the driver’s ability to move his or her arms, which can cause accidents and  
serious injuries.  
Always keep the storage compartments closed while driving.  
Never allow an adult or child to ride on the center armrest. This incorrect seating position can cause serious injuries.  
Rear center armrest

There may be a folding armrest in the backrest of the rear center seat.

WARNING  
To reduce the risk of injuries while driving, the rear center armrest must always be folded up.

seating position that could result in serious injuries.
