CAUTION
■While driving
●Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt, increasing th e risk of death or serious injury to the
driver or passenger.
●Do not place anything under the seats.
Objects placed under the se ats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop
the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident, resulting in death or
serious injury. The adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
■Adjusting the seat position
Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
