REAR SEATS
Second row seats
Your vehicle’s second row outboard seating positions are equipped with
head restraints which are vertically adjustable. The purpose of these
head restraints is to help limit head motion in the event of a rear
collision. To properly adjust your head restraints, lift the head restraint
so that it is located directly behind your head or as close to that position
as possible.
The head restraints can be raised by
lifting. To lower the head restraint,
press the release button.
If the head restraint becomes detached, replace the notched bar into the
bezel while holding the release button.
Second row folding seat system
Ensure that no objects such as books, purses or briefcases are on the
floor in front of the second row seats or on the seat cushion before
folding them down. Ensure that the head restraints are lowered.
Move the front passenger seat forward so that the second row seat
headrest clears the front seat.
For assistance, refer to the label located on the side of the seat cushion.

Continued operation will increase the engine temperature:
•The engine will completely shut down.
•Steering and braking effort will increase.
Once the engine temperature cools, the engine can be re-started. Take
your vehicle to a service facility as soon as possible to minimize engine
damage.
When fail-safe mode is activated
You have limited engine power when in the fail-safe mode, so drive the
vehicle with caution. The vehicle will not be able to maintain high speed
operation and the engine will run rough. Remember that the engine is
capable of completely shutting down automatically to prevent engine
damage, therefore:
1. Pull off the road as soon as safely possible and turn off the engine.
2. Arrange for the vehicle to be taken to a service facility.
3. If this is not possible, wait a short period for the engine to cool.
4. Check the coolant level and replenish if low.
Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is
running or hot.
5. Restart the engine and take your vehicle to a service facility.
Driving the vehicle without repairing the engine problem
increases the chance of engine damage. Take your vehicle to a
service facility as soon as possible.
