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.

CAUTION
(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.

Adjustment of the heightAdjust the head restraint height so that the
centre of the restraint is as close as pos-
sible to eye level to reduce the chance of
injury in the event of collision. Any per-
son too tall for the restraint to reach their
seated eye level, should adjust the restraint
as high as possible.
To raise the head restraint, move it upward.

in the direction of the arrow. After adjust-
ment, push the head restraint downward
