8 3Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when
the vehicle is in motion can be dan-
gerous. Even when buckled up, the
protection of your restraint system
(seat belts and air bags) is greatly
reduced by reclining your seatback.Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt cannot do its job
because it will not be snug against
your chest. Instead, it will be in front
of you. During an accident, you could
be thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined,
the greater chance the passenger’s
hips will slide under the lap belt or
the passenger’s neck will strike the
shoulder belt.Seat cushion height
(for driver’s seat)
To change the height of the seat
cushion:
Push down on the lever several
times, to lower the seat cushion.
Pull up on the lever several times,
to raise the seat cushion.

WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined
seatback when the vehicle is
moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries in the event
of a collision or sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should
ALWAYS sit well back in their
seats, properly belted, and with
the seatbacks upright.

Headrest
The vehicle’s front and rear seats
have adjustable headrests. The head-
rests provide comfort for passengers,
but more importantly they are
designed to help protect passengers
from whiplash and other neck and
spinal injuries during an accident,
especially in a rear impact collision.CAUTION
Make sure the engine is off,
the transaxle is in P and the
parking brake is applied
whenever loading or unload-
ing cargo. Vehicle may move if
shift lever is inadvertently
moved to another position.
Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger
seats to prevent damage to
the vehicle interior.
When cargo is loaded through
the rear passenger seats,
ensure the cargo is properly
secured to prevent it from
moving while driving.
Unsecured cargo in the pas-
senger compartment can
cause damage to the vehicle
or injury to it’s occupants.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death in an accident,
take the following precautions
when adjusting your headrests:
Always properly adjust the
headrests for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.
NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the headrest removed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Adjust the headrests so the
middle of the headrests is at
the same height as the height
of the top of the eyes.

position of the driver’s seat
when the vehicle is in motion.
Adjust the headrest as close
to the passenger’s head as
possible. Do not use a seat
cushion that holds the body
away from the seatback.
Make sure the headrest locks
into position after adjusting it.
