mountings, preventing the seat from
being locked securely onto the floor.

Making a flat seat
EG05COI
By removing the head restraints and fully
reclining the seatbacks of the seats, one
large flat seat is achieved.
WARNING
Never drive with luggage or passen-
gers on the flat seat. This is highly
dangerous.
In a collision, people or children
riding unrestrained in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
Do not allow people or children to
ride in any area of your vehicle that
is not equipped with seats and seat
belts, and make sure that everyone
travelling in your vehicle is in a seat
and wearing a seat belt, or in the
case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.
In the interest of their safety, chil-
dren should not be allowed to adjust
the seats.
CAUTION
(1) To make a flat seat, stop the
vehicle in a safe place.
(2) Make sure that the seat is
adjusted by an adult.
If it is adjusted by a child, an
unexpected accident might
occur.
(3) When sliding the seat, be sure
not to trap your hand or leg.
(4) Do not walk around on top of the
seats after they have been laid
flat.
(5) To ensure the seats are locked
securely, attempt to move them
back and forth.
(6) Do not jump on, or impact the
seatbacks heavily.
(7) To raise the seatback, sit on the
seat and put a hand on the seat-
back and raise slowly. Never
have a child do this operation, or
an unexpected accident may
result.

Infants and small children
EG20B-Ba
When transporting infants and small chil-
dren in your vehicle, follow the instruction
given below.
Instruction:
(1) For small infants, an infant carrier
should be used. For small children
whose height when seated allows the
shoulder belt to lie in contact with the
face or the throat, a child seat should
be used.
(2) The child restraint system should be
appropriate for your child’s weight and
height and properly fit the vehicle. For
a higher degree of safety: THE CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM SHOULD BE
INSTALLED IN THE REAR SEAT.(3) Before purchasing a child seat or infant
carrier, first try to install it in the rear
seat to ensure it fits well. Due to the
location of the seat belt buckles in the
seat cushion, it may be difficult to
securely install some child restraint sys-
tems.
If the child restraint system can be
pulled forward easily on the seat cush-
ion after the belt has been tightened,
choose another child restraint sys-
tem.
WARNING
(1) When installing a child restraint
system, refer to the instruc-
tions provided by the manufac-
turer of the restraint system.
Failure to do so can result in
severe or fatal injury to your
child.
(2) After installation, push and pull
the child restraint system back
and forth, and side to side, to
see that it is positively secured.
If the child restraint system is
not installed securely, it may
cause injury to the child or other
occupants in case of accident or
sudden stops.
(3) When the child restraint sys-
tem is not in use, keep your
child or infant seat secured with
the seat belt or remove it from
the vehicle in order to prevent
injury to your child.
