CAUTION
■When adjusting a rear seat
●Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
● Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion
to reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt. 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.
● Do not depress the second seat release pedal from the third seat while t\
he
second seat is occupied.
● Be careful not to get your hands or feet caught in the seat.
■ Before folding down a rear seat
Do not fold down a rear seat when there are passengers sitting in the rear
seats or when there is luggage placed on/under the rear seats.
■ After adjusting a seat
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Make sure that the seat and seatback are securely locked in position by
lightly rocking them back and forth.
● Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught under the seat.

Linking driving position memory with door unlock operation
Memorized driving positions can be recalled when you unlock the
driver’s door using the wireless remote control and open the driver’s
door.

being made
The operation will stop. To reactivate the system, push the button (“1” or “2”)
again.
