switches between the personal lights.
The moon roof works when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.

this function may work even if nothing is
caught.

From rear1. SEAT POSITION ADJUSTING LEVER
From front—
Hold the center of the lever and pull it
up. Then slide the seat to the desired
position with slight body pressure and
release the lever.
From rear—
Pull the lever up. Then slide the seat
to the desired position and release the
lever.
When a person sits in the third seat
center position, adjust both seat cush-
ions to the same position.
Do not place anything under the seats. It
might interfere with the seat lock mecha-
nism.
2. SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING LEVER
From front—
Lean forward and pull the lever toward
you. Then lean back to the desired
angle and release the lever.
From rear—
Push down the lever. Push the seatback
forward or pull it backward to the de-
sired angle and release the lever. When a person sits in the third seat
center position, align both seatbacks at
the same angle.
CAUTION
Adjust both seat cushions to the
same position and align both seat-
backs at the same angle when a
person sits in the third seat center
position. Otherwise, the person can-
not wear the seat belt properly and
this may cause serious injuries in
a collision.
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 straight
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.
