CAUTION
■Seat adjustment
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injuries.
●To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Be careful not to get your hands or feet pinched in the seat.
● Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving as the seat may unex-
pectedly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Be careful that the seat does not hit a passenger or luggage.
● Do not put objects under the seats.
Otherwise, the objects may interfere with the seat-lock mechanism or
unexpectedly push up the seat position adjustment lever and the seat may
suddenly move, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Adjust both seat cushions to the same position and align all seatbacks at
the same angle when a person sits in the rear center position.
Otherwise, the person cannot wear the seat belt properly and this may
cause death or serious injuries in a collision.
■ After adjusting a seat
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Make sure the seat position and seatback are securely locked by pushing
the seat and seatback forward and rearward.
● Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught in the seatback.
