Loose objects in the driver’s foot
area could interfere with the opera-
tion of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident. Do not place
anything under the front seats.

WARNING
- Driver’s seat
Never adjust the driver’s seat
while the vehicle is moving. Any
sudden or unexpected movement
of the seat could cause you to
lose control of the vehicle result-
ing in an accident. Only adjust the
driver’s seat when the vehicle is
stationary.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not allow anything to interfere
with the normal position of the
seatback. Storing items against a
seatback or in any other way
interfering with proper locking of
a seatback could result in serious
or fatal injury in a sudden stop or
collision.
Always drive and ride with your
seatback upright and the lap por-
tion of the seat belt snug and low
across the hips. This is the best
position to protect you in case of
an accident.
Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the air bag. Position the
seat so that you can sit as far
back as possible from the air bag
and still comfortably reach all
controls. The U.S. goverment rec-
ommends that your chest be at
least 10 inches (250 mm) away
from the steering wheel.
After adjusting the seat, always
check that it is securely locked
into place by attempting to move
the seat forward or reverse with-
out using the lock release lever.
Sudden or unexpected movement
of the driver's seat could cause
you to lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
WARNING -
Uprighting
seat
When you return the seatback to its
upright position, hold the seatback
and return it slowly and be sure
there are no other occupants
around the seat. If the seatback is
returned without being held and
controlled, the back of the seat
could spring forward resulting in
accidental injury to a person struck
by the seatback.
WARNING
- Rear Seatback
The rear seatback must be
securely latched. If not, passen-
gers and objects could be thrown
forward resulting in serious
injury or death in the event of a
sudden stop or collision.
Luggage and other cargo should
be laid flat in the cargo area. If
objects are large, heavy, or must
be piled, they must be secured.
Under no circumstances should
cargo be piled higher than the
seatbacks. Failure to follow these
warnings could result in serious
injury or death in the event of a
sudden stop, collision or rollover.
No passenger should ride in the
cargo area or sit or lie on folded
seatbacks while the vehicle is
moving. All passengers must be
in seats and restrained properly
while riding.
When resetting the seatback to
the upright position, make sure it
is securely latched by pushing it
forward and backwards.
To avoid the possibility of burns,
do not remove the carpet in the
cargo area. Emission controls
beneath this floor generate high
exhaust temperatures.

WARNING
- Driver respon-
sibility for front seat pas-
senger
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious or
fatal injuries in the event of a colli-
sion or sudden stop. The protection
of your restraint system (seat belts
and air bags) is greatly reduced by
reclining your seat. Seat belts must
be snug against your hips and
chest to work properly. The more
the seatback is reclined, the greater
the chance that an occupant's hips
will slide under the lap belt causing
serious internal injuries or the
occupant's neck could strike the
shoulder belt. Drivers and passen-
gers should always sit well back in
their seats, properly belted, and
with the seatbacks upright.

ing wheel, pedals and switches on the
instrument panel.

WARNING
The power seats are operable with
the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never be
left unattended in the car.
CAUTION
Power seats are driven by an
electric motor. Stop operating
once the adjustment is complet-
ed. Excessive operation may
damage the electrical equipment.
When in operation, the power
seats consume large amounts of
electrical power. To prevent unnec-
essary charging system drain,
don’t adjust the power seats
longer than necessary while the
engine is not running.
Do not operate two or more power
seat control buttons at the same
time. Doing so may result in
power seat motor or electrical
component malfunction.
