Seat adjustment
E00400300271
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
l Do
not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without us-
ing the adjusting mechanism.
l Do not let children or adults ride in areas
of the vehicle that are not equipped with
seats or seat belts. Also, make sure that
all occupants are sitting in their seats and
wearing their seat belts, and that children
are sitting in child restraints.
l To minimize the risk of personal injury
in the event of a collision or sudden brak-
ing, the seatbacks should always be in the
almost upright position while the vehicle
is in motion. The protection provided by
the seat belts may be reduced significant-
ly when the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in-
jury, when the seatback is reclined. CAUTION
l
Make
sure the seat is adjusted by an
adult or with adult supervision for cor-
rect and safe operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like be-
tween your back and the seatback while
driving. The effectiveness of the head re-
straints will be reduced in the event of an
accident.
l When sliding the seat rearward, be care-
ful not to catch your hand or foot. Front seat

Installation
To
install the head restraints, first confirm that they
are facing the correct direction, and then insert
them into the seatback while pressing the height ad-
justing knob (A) in the direction indicated by the ar-
row. CAUTION
l
Confirm
that the height adjusting knob
(A) is correctly adjusted as shown in the
illustration, and also lift the head re-
straints to ensure that they do not come
out of the seatback. CAUTION
l
The
head restraints for the seats differ in
shape and size. When installing head re-
straints, make sure the head restraints
are fitted in their respective seats and do
not install the head restraints in the
wrong direction. Making a luggage compartment
E00403400231 WARNING
l When
making a luggage compartment,
never arrange the seats while the vehicle
is being driven or is on an incline. The
seats could move unexpectedly or more
than required and cause a serious accident.
l If required, always operate the seating be-
fore the vehicle is in motion.
l Do not allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage compartment while the vehicle is in
motion. People who are not properly seat-
ed and restrained can be seriously in-
jured or killed in an accident.
l The luggage compartment in the rear of
the vehicle should never be used as a play
area by children.
Children should be seated with seat belts
fastened when the vehicle is in motion.
l Confirm that the seatback locks securely
when it is returned. CAUTION
l
Do
not stack luggage in the vehicle higher
than the seatback height. Also, firmly se-
cure the luggage.
Serious accidents could result due to un-
restrained objects entering the passenger
compartment during sudden braking.
l Make sure that the seat is operated by an
adult. If it is operated by a child, an unex-
pected accident might occur. Seat and seat belts

Front passenger’s airbag ONWARNING
l A
REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag has not been deactivated.
The force of an inflating airbag could kill
or cause serious injuries to the child. A
rearward facing child restraint should be
used in the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if used in the front
seat, turn off the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch. Infants and small children
E00406600609
When

transporting infants and small children in
your vehicle, follow the instruction given below. Instruction:
l For

small infants, an infant carrier should be
used. For small children whose height when
seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in con-
tact with the face or the throat, a child seat
should be used.
l The child restraint system should be appropri-
ate for the child’s weight and height and prop-
erly fit in the vehicle. For a higher degree of
safety: THE CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR
SEAT. NOTE
l Before

purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the rear seat to make sure
there is a good fit. Because of the location of
the seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat
cushion, it may be difficult to securely install
some manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled for-
ward or to either side easily on the seat cush-
ion after the seat belt has been tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system. WARNING
l When
installing a child restraint system,
refer to the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the restraint system. Fail-
ure to do so can result in severe or fatal
injury to the child.
l After installation, push and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is properly secured.
If the child restraint system is not instal-
led securely, it may cause injury to the
child or other occupants in the case of ac-
cident or sudden stops.
l When the child restraint system is not in
use, keep your child restraint system se-
cured with the seat belt or remove it from
the vehicle in order to prevent it from be-
ing thrown around inside the vehicle dur-
ing an accident.
Depending on the seating position in the ve-
hicle

and the child restraint system that you
have, the child restraint can be attached us-
ing one of the following two locations: Seat and seat belts

D- Connector
If your child restraint system requires the use
of a tether strap, fasten the tether strap in ac-
cordance with steps 4 through 5.
4. Remove the head restraint from the location in which you wish to install a child restraint.
5. Latch the tether strap hook (E) of the child seat to the tether anchorage bar (F) and tight-
en the top tether strap hook so it is securely
fastened. NOTE
l If

it is difficult to latch the tether strap hook
(E), turn the hook sideways.
6. Push and pull the child restraint in all direc- tions to be sure it is secure.
To remove
Remove the child restraint in accordance with the
instructions provided by the child restraint sys-
tem’s manufacturer.
Installing a child restraint system to a

locking mechanism) E00408700617
3-point type seat belt location
The
child restraint system can be fitted by using
the 3-point type seat belt at the below illustrated
seating position. Installation:
1. Fasten
the seat belt to secure the child re-
straint system.
Make sure you hear a “click” when you in-
sert the latch plate in the buckle.
2. Use the locking clip to completely eliminate any slackness.
3. Push and pull the child restraint in all direc- tions to be sure it is secure. WARNING
l For
some types of child restraint, the lock-
ing clip (A) should be used to help avoid
personal injury during a collision or sud-
den manoeuvre.
It must be fitted and used in accordance
with the child restraint manufacturer’s in-
structions.
The locking clip must be removed when
the child restraint is removed. Seat and seat belts
