After returning the seat to its normal position, raise
all the head restraints to the highest position. Using
the second row seat with the head restraints
retracted could cause a serious head injury or death
in the event of a collision or sudden breaking.
WA R N I N G
!
Never drive with passengers or cargo on the flat
seat. This is extremely dangerous and can cause
severe or fatal injury or death in an accident or if
heavy braking is required.
CAUTION
!
Adjust the seats only when the vehicle is stopped in a
safe place.
Seat should be adjusted only by adults to avoid acci-
dents.
When sliding the seats, be careful not to catch your
hand or leg.
Do not walk around on top of the seats after they
have been laid flat because the footing is uneven. It
is safest to move about on your hands and knees.
To ensure the seats are locked securely, attempt to
move them back and forth.
Do not jump on or drop heavy objects on the seat-
backs.
