CAUTION
■When folding the seatbacks down
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious
injury.
●Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious
injury.
●To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap
belt during a collision, do not recline the

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 dr iving as the seat may unexpectedly move
and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Be careful not to get hands or feet pinched between the rear console box and the
second seat when folding down the rear seatback.

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious
injury.
