NOTE●The sunroof stops just before reaching the fully open posi-
tion.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in this position,
wind throbs is lower than with the sunroof fully open.
●When leaving the vehicle unattended, make sure you
close the sunroof and remove the ignition key.
●Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is frozen closed
(after snow fall or during extreme cold).
●Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the sunroof or roof
opening edge.●Release the switch as soon as the sunroof reaches the fully
open or fully closed position.
●If the sunroof does not operate when the sunroof switch is
operated, release the switch and check whether something
is trapped by the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunroof checked.
●Depending on the models of ski carriers or roof carriers,
the sunroof may contact with the carrier when the sunroof
is tilted up. Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such
a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
●Be sure to close the sunroof completely when washing the
vehicle or when leaving the vehicle.
●Be careful, not to put any wax on the weatherstrip (black
rubber) around the sunroof opening. If stained with wax,
the weatherstrip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal with
the sunroof.
●After washing the vehicle or after it has rained, wipe off
any water that is on the sunroof before operating it.
●Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the engine station-
ary will run down the battery. Operate the sunroof while
the engine is running.

sunroof opening while driving the vehicle.●Never leave a child (or other person who might not
be capable of safe operation of the sunroof switch) in
the vehicle alone.●Before operating the sunroof, make sure that noth-
ing is capable of being trapped (head, hand, finger,
etc.).
CAUTION
!●The safety mechanism is cancelled just before the
sunroof is fully closed. This allows the sunroof to
close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fingers are
trapped in the sunroof.

2 Seat adjustment
E00400300402
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
!●Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This
can cause loss of vehicle control and result in an
accident. After adjustments are made, ensure the
seating is locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without using the
adjusting mechanism.●It is extremely dangerous to ride in the luggage area
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 unrestrained 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.
●To minimize the risk of personal injury in the event
of a collision or sudden braking, the seatbacks
should always be in the almost upright position
while the vehicle is in motion. The protection pro-
vided by the seat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is greater risk
that the passenger will slide under the seat belt,
resulting in serious injury, when the seatback is
reclined.
CAUTION
!●Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or with
adult supervision for correct and safe operation.●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.●When sliding the seats, be careful not to catch your
hand or foot.●When sliding or reclining the seat rearward, pay
careful attention to the rear seat passengers.
