Black plate (15,1)
Do not place objects under the seat:
The object could get stuck and cause the seat to not be fixed securely, and result in
an accident.
Do not stack cargo higher than the seatbacks:
Stacking luggage or other cargo higher than the seatbacks is dangerous. During
sudden braking or a collision, objects can fly around and become projectiles that
may hit and injure passengers.
Make sure luggage and cargo is secured before driving:
Not securing cargo while driving is dangerous as it could move or be crushed during
sudden braking or a collision and cause injury.
Never allow a passenger to sit or stand on the folded seatback while the vehicle is
moving:
Driving with a passenger on the folded seatback is dangerous. Allowing a child to sit
up on the folded seatback while the vehicle is moving is particularly dangerous. In a
sudden stop or even a minor collision, a child not in a proper seat or child-restraint
system and seat belt could be thrown forward, back or even out of the vehicle
resulting in serious injuries or death. The child in the baggage area could be thrown
into other occupants and cause serious injury.
CAUTION
ØWhen operating a seat, be careful not to put your hands or fingers near the
moving parts of the seat or on the side trim to prevent injury.
Ø(Manual Seat)
When returning a rear-reclined seatback to its upright position, make sure you
hold onto the seatback with your other hand while operating the lever. If the
seatback is not supported, it will flip forward suddenly and could cause injury.
Ø(Power Seat)
The seat-bottom power adjustment is operated by motors. Avoid extended
operation because excessive use can damage the motors.
ØTo prevent the battery from running down, avoid using the power adjustment
when the engine is stopped. The adjuster uses a large amount of electrical
power.
ØDo not use the switch to make more than one adjustment at a time.
NOTE
When returning a rear seat to its original position, also replace the seat belt to its normal position.
Verify that the seat belt pulls out and retracts.

NOTElIf the ignition is switched off while the seat
warmer is operating (High, Mid or Low)
and then switched ON again, the seat
warmer will automatically operate at the
temperature set before switching off the
ignition.
lUse the seat warmer when the engine is
running. Leaving the seat warmer on for
long periods with the engine not running
could cause the battery power to be
depleted.
lThe temperature of the seat warmer cannot
be adjusted beyond High, Mid and Low
because the seat warmer is controlled by a
thermostat.
Rear Seat
qSplit Folding
The seatbacks can be folded down to
provide more space in the luggage
compartment.
WARNING
Tightly secure cargo in the luggage
compartment when it is transported
with the seatbacks folded down:
Driving without tightly securing
cargo and luggage is dangerous as it
could move and become an
obstruction to driving during
emergency braking or a collision
resulting in an unexpected accident.
Always remove the child-restraint
system from the rear seat before
operating the remote handle levers for
the rear seat:
Operating the remote handle levers
while a rear-facing child-restraint
system is in the rear seat is
dangerous. It could cause injury to a
child seated in the child-restraint
system when the seatback suddenly
flips forward.
