Seat adjustmentE00400300271
Adjust  the  driver’s  seat  so  that  you  are  com- fortable  and  that  you  can  reach  the  pedals,
steering  wheel,  switches  etc.  while  retaining a clear field of vision.WARNINGl Do  not  attempt  to  adjust  the  seat  while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol  and  result  in  an  accident.  After  ad-
justments  are  made,  ensure  the  seating  is locked  in  position  by  attempting  to  move
the  seat  forward  and  rearward  without
using the adjusting mechanism.
l Do  not  let  children  or  adults  ride  in  areas
of  the  vehicle  that  are  not  equipped  with seats or seat belts. Also, make sure that all
occupants  are  sitting  in  their  seats  and wearing their seat belts, and that children
are sitting in child restraints.
l To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,the  seatbacks  should  always  be  in  the  al-
most  upright  position  while  the  vehicle  is in motion. The protection provided by theseat  belts  may  be  reduced  significantly
when  the  seatback  is  reclined.  There  is greater  risk  that  the  passenger  will  slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in- jury, when the seatback is reclined.CAUTIONl Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with  adult  supervision  for  correct  and  safe operation.
l Do  not  place  a  cushion  or  the  like  between
your  back  and  the  seatback  while  driving.The  effectiveness  of  the  head  restraints  will
be reduced in the event of an accident.
l When  sliding  the  seat  rearward,  be  careful
not to catch your hand or foot.Front seat

warm).CAUTIONl Switch off seat heaters when not in use.
l Operate  in  the  high  position  for  quick  heat-
ing.  Once  the  seat  is  warm,  set  the  heater  to low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature  may  be  felt  while  using  the heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of  the  heater’s  internal  thermostat  and  does not indicate a malfunction.
l If  the  following  types  of  persons  use  the
heated  seats,  they  might  become  too  hot  or receive  minor  burns  (red  skin,  heat  blisters,
etc.):
• Children, elderly or ill people

stick  pins,  needles,  or  other  pointed  objects into it.
l Do not use a blanket, cushion, or other mate-
rial  with  high  heat  insulation  properties  on the  seat  while  using  the  heater;  this  might
cause the heater element to overheatCAUTIONl Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol, alcohol
or  other  organic  solvents  when  cleaning  the seats.  Doing  so  could  damage  not  only  the seat cover, but also the heater element.
l If  water  or  any  other  liquid  is  spilled  on  the
seat,  allow  it  to  dry  thoroughly  before  at-tempting to use the heater.

than  required  and  cause  a  serious  acci- dent.
l If required, always operate the seating be-
fore the vehicle is in motion.
l Do not allow anyone to ride in the luggage
compartment  while  the  vehicle  is  in  mo-
tion.  People  who  are  not  properly  seated
and restrained can be seriously injured or killed in an accident.

the vehicle should never be used as a play area by children.
Children  should  be  seated  with  seat  belts fastened when the vehicle is in motion.
l Confirm  that  the  seatback  locks  securely
when it is returned.CAUTIONl Do  not  stack  luggage  in  the  vehicle  higher
than the seatback height. Also, firmly securethe luggage.
Serious  accidents  could  result  due  to  unre-
strained  objects  entering  the  passenger  com-
partment during sudden braking.
l Make  sure  that  the  seat  is  operated  by  an
adult.  If  it  is  operated  by  a  child,  an  unex-
pected accident might occur.
l Be  careful  not  to  catch  your  hands  or  feet
when  arranging  the  seat.  Personal  injury could result.Folding the rear seatbacks for-

E00404800636
To  protect  you  and  your  passengers  in  theevent of an accident, it is most important thatthe seat belts be worn correctly while driving.
The  front  seat  belts  have  a  pretensioner  sys- tem.  These  belts  are  used  the  same  way  as  a
conventional seat belt.
Refer  to  “Seat  belt  pretensioner  system  and
force limiter system” on page 4-14.WARNINGl Always  place  the  shoulder  belt  over  your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put it behind you or under your arm.
l One  seat  belt  should  be  used  by  only  one
person.  Doing  otherwise  can  be  danger- ous.
l The  seat  belt  will  provide  its  wearer  with
maximum  protection  if  the  recliner  seat- back  is  placed  in  fully  upright  position.
When  the  seatback  is  reclined,  there  is
greater  risk  that  the  passenger  will  slide under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact  accident,  and  may  be  injured  by  the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or seatbacks.
l Seat belts should always be worn by every
adult  who  drives  or  rides  in  this  vehicle, and by all children who are tall enough towear seat belts properly.
Other  children  should  always  use  proper child restraint systems.
l Remove any twists when using the belt.
l No  modifications  or  additions  should  be
made  by  the  user  which  will  either  pre-
vent  the  seat  belt  adjusting  devices  from operating  to  remove  slack,  or  prevent  the
seat  belt  assembly  from  being  adjusted  to remove slack.
