getting out of the vehicle, ensure
that the outer armrest (door side)
is fully raised.

take care that it does not interfere
with the handbrake lever.12) Ensure the seat is locked in the
driving position before starting up
the vehicle.

against the vehicle occupants in
the event of sudden braking or
impacts, causing severe injury.

seated in the 3rd row with the
2nd row bench folded over. Do not
place objects of any type on the
