Folding Rear Seatbackso To unlock the seatback, pull the

!
WARNING:
The purpose of the folding rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer
objects than could otherwise be accom-
modated. Do not allow passengers to sit
on top of the folded down seatback, while
the car is moving as this is not a proper
seating position and no seat belts are
available for use. This could result in
serious injury or death in case of an
accident or sudden stop. Objects car-
ried on the folded down seatback should
not extend higher than the top of the front
seats. This could allow cargo to slide
forward and cause injury or damage
during sudden stops.
B085D01TG-AATAdjustable HeadrestsHeadrests are designed to help reduce
the risk of neck injuries.
To raise the headrest, pull it up. To lower
the headrest, push it down while pressing
the lock knob. To remove the headrest,
raise it as far as it can go then press the lock
knob while pulling upward. This should
only be done when the seat is not occu-
pied.

oPassengers should not place hard or
sharp objects between themselves
and the airbags. Carrying hard or sharp
objects on your lap or in your mouth can
result in injuries if an airbag inflates.
oKeep occupants away from the airbag
covers. All occupants should sit up-
right, fully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their feet on the floor.
If occupants are too close to the airbag
covers, they could be injured if the
airbags inflate.
oDo not attach or place objects on or
near the airbag covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the front or side
impact airbag covers could interfere
with the proper operation of the airbags.
oDo not modify the front seats. Modifi-
cation of the front seats could interfere
with the operation of the supplemental
restraint system sensing components
or side impact airbags.
oDo not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the operation
of the supplemental restraint system
sensing components and wiring har-
nesses.
!
WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can result in serious injury or death in
a crash.
o Always sit upright with the seatback
in an upright position, centered on the
seat cushion with your seat belt on,
legs comfortably extended and your
feet on the floor. oNever hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seri-
ously injured or killed in the event of a
crash. All infants and children should
be properly restrained in appropriate
child safety seats or seat belts in the rear
seat.
B240D01NF-AATAdditional Safety PrecautionsoNever let passengers ride in the cargo
area (trunk) or on top of a folded-down
back seat. All occupants should sit
upright, fully back in their seats with
their seat belts on and their feet on the
floor.
oPassengers should not move out of or
change seats while the vehicle is mov-
ing. A passenger who is not wearing a
seat belt during a crash or emergency
stop can be thrown against the inside of
the vehicle, against other occupants, or
out of the vehicle.
oEach seat belt is designed to restrain
one occupant. If more than one person
uses the same seat belt, they could be
seriously injured or killed in a collision.
oDo not use any accessories on seat
belts. Devices claiming to improve oc-
cupant comfort or reposition the seat
belt can reduce the protection provided
by the seat belt and increase the chance
of serious injury in a crash.

WARNING:
o Overloading your vehicle can
cause heat buildup in your
vehicle's tires and possible tire
failure that could lead to a crash.
o Overloading your vehicle can
cause increased stopping dis-
tances that could lead to a crash.
o A crash resulting from poor han-
dling vehicle damage, tire failure,
or increased stopping distances
could result in serious injury or
death.NOTE:
o Overloading your vehicle may
cause damage. Repairs would not
be covered by your warranty. Do
not overload your vehicle.
o Using heavier suspension com-
ponents to get added durability
might not change your weight rat-
ings. Ask your dealer to help you
load your vehicle the right way.
The label will help you decide how much
cargo and installed equipment your
vehicle can carry.
If you carry items inside your vehicle –
like suitcases, tools, packages, or any-
thing else – they move as fast as the
vehicle goes. If you have to stop or turn
quickly, or if there is a crash, the items
will keep going and can cause an injury
if they strike the driver or a passenger.
!
WARNING:
Items you carry inside your vehicle
can strike and injure people in a
sudden stop or turn, or in a crash.
o Put things in the cargo area of
your vehicle. Try to spread the
weight evenly.
o Never stack items, like suitcases,
inside the vehicle above the tops
of the seats.
o Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint in your vehicle.
o When you carry something inside
the vehicle, secure it.
o Do not drive with a seat folded
down unless necessary.
