WARNING
Improper folding and improper latching of the rear seat backrest can cause serious personal
injury.
ꢀ Always make sure there are no people or animals in the area around the rear seat backrest
when folding it forward.
ꢀ
ꢀ
Never fold the rear seat backrest forward or back while the vehicle is moving.
When folding the rear seat backrest back up, make sure that the safety belt does not get
caught or damaged.
Keep hands, fingers, feet and other body parts out of the way when folding the rear seat
backrest forward or back.
Each rear seat backrest must be securely latched in the upright position so that the safety
ꢀ
ꢀ
belts on the rear seats can provide protection. This is particularly the case for the middle seat
on the rear seat bench.
ꢀ
If a seat is used with an unsecured backrest, the passenger will move forward together
with the rear seat backrest during sudden braking, driving maneuvers, or in a collision.
If the red marking on the button (2) is visible, this indicates that the backrest is not latched
ꢀ
into place. Always check to make sure that the red marking is not visible whenever the rear
seat backrest is in the upright position.
ꢀ No one, including children, may ride on the rear seats if the rear seat backrest is folded
down or not correctly latched.
NOTICE
Before folding the rear seat backrest forward, adjust the front seats so that the rear seat's head
restraint or backrest cushion will not touch the front seats.
