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.
ØWhen moving the seats, make sure there is no cargo in the surrounding area. If
the cargo gets caught it could damage the cargo.
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.
