 Third seat
Lean forward and pull the lock release lever. 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
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. In the event of a frontal collision, the
more the seat is reclined, the greater the risk of personal
injury.
Folding up second seat (for third seat entry)
Vehicles with third seat: For easy access to the third seat,
fold up the second seat in accordance with the following

buckles as shown above.
This prevents the buckles from falling out when you fold up the
second seat.
Vehicles with rear seat audio system or rear seat
entertainment system: Before folding up the second seat,

HEAD RESTRAINTS
Front seat
To raise the head restraint, pull it up. To lower it, press the
lock release button and push the head restraint down. To
move the head restraint forward or rearward, pull or push
the base of the head restraint.
The head restraint is most effective when it is close to your
head. Therefore, using a cushion on the seatback is not
recommended.

Adjust the center of the head restraint so that it is
closest to the top of your ears.
 After adjusting the head restraint, make sure it is
locked in position.
 Do not drive with the head restraints removed.
