signed for people to ride in it. Do not let
passengers ride in or let children play in
the luggage compartment. Riding or play- ing in the luggage compartment could re-
sult in a serious accident.

open, since carbon monoxide (CO) gas
contained in engine exhaust gases can en- ter the cabin.
You cannot see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death.
In addition, if the tailgate opens when
driving, luggage could fall onto the road and cause an accident.

make sure that there are no people near-
by and that there is sufficient space be-
hind and above the vehicle. In addition, be careful not to hit your head or pinch
your hands, neck, etc.WARNINGl When there is a build up of snow or ice, it
should be removed before opening the tailgate. If you open the tailgate without

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.

place can cause you and your passengers
serious injury or death in an accident. To reduce the risk of injury in an accident, always make sure the head restraints are
installed and properly positioned when the seat is occupied.WARNINGl Never place a cushion or similar device on
the seatback. This can adversely affect head restraint performance by increasing
the distance between your head and the restraint.
To adjust height

centre of the head restraint is as close as pos-
sible to eye level to reduce the chances of in-
jury in the event of collision. Any person too tall for the head restraint to reach their seatedeye level, should adjust the restraint as highas possible.
To raise the head restraint, move it upward. To lower the restraint, move it downward
while pushing the height adjusting knob (A) in the direction of the arrow. After adjust-
ment, push the head restraint downward and make sure that it is locked.
