as possible and wash thor-
oughly after any contact.

Driving and alcohol
EB25A-Aa
Driving under the influence of alcohol is one
of the most frequent causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can even be seriously
impaired with blood alcohol levels below
the legal maximum. If you are drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated
non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or
use public transportation.
WARNING
Driving after drinking can lead to an
accident. Your perceptions are less
sharp, your reflexes are slower, and
your judgement is impaired when
you have been drinking.
NEVER DRINK AND THEN DRIVE.
Safe driving techniques
EB26A-I
Driving safety and protection against injury
cannot be fully ensured. However, we rec-
ommend that you pay extra attention to the
following:
(1) Before starting the vehicle, make sure
that you and your passengers have
fastened your seat belts.
(2) Never leave your vehicle unattended
with the key in the ignition and chil-
dren inside the vehicle. Children may
play with the driving controls and this
could lead to an accident.
(3) Make sure that infants and small chil-
dren are properly restrained in accor-
dance with the laws and regulations,
and for maximum protection in case of
an accident.

(4) Switch off the engine if you stop for a
short sleep. If the engine is left run-
ning while you sleep, unexpected
vehicle operation or other accidents
may be caused by unconsciously mov-
ing the shift lever (selector lever on
automatic transmission vehicles) or
pressing the accelerator pedal. If you
inadvertently keep the accelerator
pedal pressed, the engine may over-
heat or the engine, exhaust pipe, etc.
may be abnormally overheated, result-
ing in an accidental fire. If poorly ven-
tilated, there is a risk of poisoning by
exhaust gases.
(5) Prevent children from playing in the lug-
gage compartment. It is illegal to allow
them to play there while the vehicle is
moving.
(6) When loading luggage, be careful not
to load above the height of seats. This
is dangerous not only because rear-
ward vision will be obstructed, but also
the luggage may projected into the
passenger compartment under hard
braking.

Seat adjustment
EG21A-Ud
Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are
comfortable and that you can reach the
pedals, steering wheel, switches etc. while
retaining a clear field of vision.
WARNING
(1) If required, always adjust the
seating before the vehicle is in
motion. After adjustments are
made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempt-
ing to move the seat and seat-
back forward and rearward
without using the adjusting
mechanism.
WARNING
(2) It is extremely dangerous to ride
in the luggage area (inside or
outside) of a vehicle. Also, the
luggage area and rear seats
should never be used as a play
area by children. In a collision,
people or children riding unre-
strained 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,
children should not be allowed
to adjust the seats.
WARNING
(3) To minimize the risk of per-
sonal injury in the event of a col-
lision or sudden braking, the
seatbacks should always be in
the almost upright position while
the vehicle is in motion. The pro-
tection provided by the seat
belts may be reduced signifi-
cantly when the seatback is
reclined. There is greater risk
that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in
serious injury, when the seat-
back is reclined.

(1) Make sure that the seat is
adjusted by an adult.
If it is adjusted by a child, an
unexpected accident might
occur.
(2) Do not place a cushion or the
like between your back and the
seatback while driving. The
effectiveness of the head
restraints will be reduced in the
event of an accident.
(3) When sliding or reclining the
seat rearward, pay careful atten-
tion to the rear seat passen-
gers.

CAUTION
(1) Use a foot to operate the pedal
(2).
(2) The reclining mechanism of the
seatback is spring loaded, caus-
ing it to return to the vertical
position when the lock lever is
operated. When using the lever,
sit close to the seatback or hold
it with your hand.
WARNING
The front seatbacks also serve the
purpose of protecting passengers in
the rear seat from being thrown for-
wards in case of an accident. Thus,
in order to prevent serious injury, the
vehicle should not be driven with a
seatback tilted forward.
G16A030A
Heated seats*
EG16A-J
The heated seats can be operated with the
ignition switch in the“ON”position.
1- Heater high (for quick heating).
2- Heater off.
3- Heater low (to keep the seat warm).
The indication lamp (A) will illuminate while
the heater is on.
CAUTION
(1) Switch off seat heaters when not
in use.
(2) Operate in the high position for
quick heating. Once the seat is
warm, set the heater to low to
keep it warm. Slight variations in
seat temperature may be felt
while using the heated seats.
This is caused by the opera-
tion of the heater’s internal ther-
mostat and does not indicate a
malfunction.
(3) If the following types of per-
sons use the heated seats, they
might become too hot or receive
minor burns (red skin, heat blis-
ters, etc.):
·Children, elderly or ill people
·People with sensitive skin
·Excessively tired people
·People under the influence of
alcohol or sleep inducing medi-
cation (cold medicine, etc.)
(4) Do not use a blanket, cushion, or
other material with high heat
insulation properties on the seat
while using the heater; this
might cause the heater ele-
ment to overheat.
