Operating the power door lock switch si-
multaneously locks or unlocks the back

driving. This not only keeps the
luggage from being thrown out but
also prevents exhaust gases from
entering the vehicle.

stop and tail lights, rear turn signal
lights or rear retro reflectors while
you are parked, other road users
must be warned of your vehicle by
a warning triangle or other device.

BACK DOOR CHILD- PROTECTOR
Move the lock lever to the ºLOCKº
position as shown on the label.
This feature allows you to lock a back
door so it can be opened from the outside
only, not from inside. We recommend us-
ing this feature whenever small children
are in the vehicle.
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the back
door is closed and locked, especially
when small children are in the ve-
hicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers
from being thrown out from the ve-
hicle during an accident. It also helps
prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.
Hood
To open the hood: 1. Pull the hood lock release lever. The hood will spring up slightly.
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the hood
is closed and securely locked. Other-
wise, the hood may open unexpected-
ly while driving and an accident may
occur.

down gently on the front edge to lock it. Theft deterrent systemÐTo deter the vehicle theft, the system
is designed to give an alarm if any of

and flashes the headlights and tail lights.SETTING THE SYSTEM

Adjust the driver's seat so that the foot
pedals, steering wheel and instrument
panel controls are within easy reach of

not to hit the seat against a pas-
senger or luggage.
After adjusting the seat position,
try sliding it forward and backward

tion.

SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING LEVER
Lean forward and pull the lever toward
you. Then lean back to the desired
angle and release the lever.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision,
avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts
provide maximum protection in a
frontal or rear collision when the
passengers are sitting up staright
and well back in the seats. If you
are reclined, the lap belt may slide
past your hips and apply restraint
forces directly to the abdomen.
Therefore, in the event of a frontal
collision, the risk of personal injury
may increase with increasing recline
of the seatback.
Adjustments should not be made
while the vehicle is moving.
After adjusting the seatback, exert
body pressure to make sure it is
locked in position.
For easy access to the third seat, do
this;
Push the seat back angle adjusting lever
and pull the seat cushion lock release
lever or pull the strap.
After passengers are in, return the seat
until it locks.

second seat.
This prevents the shoulder belt from being
damaged.
