Headrest
The driver's and front passenger's seats are
equipped with a headrest for the occupant's
safety and comfort. The headrest not only
provides comfort for the driver and front
passenger, but also helps to protect the
head and neck in the event of a collision.
Adjusting the height up and down
To raise the headrest, pull it up to the
desired position (1). To lower the head-
rest, push and hold the release button (2)
on the headrest support and lower the
headrest to the desired position (3).
WARNING
• For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should
be adjusted so the middle of the
headrest is at the same height of the
center of gravity of an occupant's
head. Generally, the center of gravi-
ty of most people's head is similar
with the height of the top of their
eyes. Also, adjust the headrest as
close to your head as possible. For
this reason, the use of a cushion
that holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommended.
• Do not operate the vehicle with the
headrests removed as severe injury
to the occupants may occur in the
event of an accident. Headrests may
provide protection against neck
injuries when properly adjusted.
• Do not adjust the headrest position
of the driver's seat whilst the vehicle
is in motion.

CAUTION
If you recline the seatback towards
the front with the head restraint and
seat cushion raised, the head
restraint may come in contact with
the sunvisor or other parts of the
vehicle.

and return it slowly. If the seatback
is returned without holding it, the
back of the seat could spring for-
ward resulting in injury caused by
being struck by the seatback.

ly protect the occupants.
CAUTION- Rear seat belts

3rd row) seatbacks to the upright
position, remember to return the
rear shoulder belts to their proper
position. Routing the seat belt web-
bing through the rear seat belt
guides will help keep the belts from
being trapped behind or under the
seats.
CAUTION - Damaging rear
seat belt buckles
When you fold the rear (2nd and/or
3rd row) seatback, insert the buckle
in the pocket between the rear seat-
back and cushion. Doing so can

Folding the rear seat
(4th row seat, if equipped)
The rear seat cushion may be folded to
facilitate carrying long items or to
increase the luggage capacity of the
vehicle.To fold the rear seat:
1. Stow the rear seat belt in the pocket
to prevent the seat belt from being
damaged.
2. Set the 3rd row seatback to the upright
position and if necessary, slide the 3rd
row seat forward.
3. Pull on the seat cushion folding lever,
then fold the seat toward the rear of
the vehicle.
4. Increase the luggauge compartment
space by moving the rear seat using
the sliding lever.
WARNING
The purpose of the fold rear seat is
to allow you to carry longer objects
that could not be accommodated in
the cargo area.
Never allow passengers to sit on a
improper position (ex : top of the
folded seat, floor etc.) whilst the car
is moving as this is not a proper
seating position and no seat belts
are available for use. This could
result in serious injury or death in
case of an accident or sudden stop.
Objects carried on the cargo area
should not extend higher than the
top of the front seatbacks. Doing
this could allow cargo to slide for-
ward and cause injury or damage
during sudden stops.OTQ037016

WARNING
When you return the rear seat
cushion to its locking position after
being folded:
Be careful not to damage the seat
belt webbing or buckle. Do not
allow the seat belt webbing or
buckle to get caught or pinched in
the rear seat. Ensure that the seat
is completely locked into its proper
position by pushing the seat cush-
ion and seatback.
Otherwise, in an accident or sud-
den stop, the seat could fold, which
could result in serious injury or
death.
OUN026140
WARNING
The headrest on the seat (especial-
ly the last row seat) should be
adjusted so the middle of the head-
rest is at the same height as the top
of the occupant's eyes.
If the tailgate is pushed down to
close when a passenger's head is
not against a properly adjusted
headrest or a tall person is seated,
the tailgate may hit the occupant's
head, which could cause injury.
WARNING- Cargo
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about
the vehicle in a collision and caus-
ing injury to the vehicle occupants.
Do not place objects in the rear
seats, since they cannot be proper-
ly secured and may hit the front
seat occupants in a collision.
WARNING - Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
automatic transmission is in P
(Park) or the manual transmission
is in R (Reverse) or 1st, and the
parking brake is securely applied
whenever loading or unloading
cargo. Failure to take these steps
may allow the vehicle to move if the
shift lever is inadvertently moved to
another position.

Seat belt restraint system
The use of seat belts reduces the risk of
accident injury by avoiding collision with
the interior of the car and by preventing
the occupants from being thrown out of
the car. This makes them the most impor-
tant safety feature available for you and
your passengers. Adequate protection is
afforded only when the belt is worn cor-
rectly. You should always fasten and
adjust your seatbelts before the car is put
in motion and encourage your passen-
gers to do the same.
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
• For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the car
is moving.
• Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the
upright position.
• Children age 12 and younger
must always be properly
restrained in the rear seat. Never
allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat.
(Continued)
WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear upon
the bony structure of the body, and
should be worn low across the front
of the pelvis, or the pelvis, chest and
shoulders, as applicable; wearing the
lap section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection for
which they have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid con-
tamination of the webbing with pol-
ishes, oils and chemicals and partic-
ularly battery acid. Cleaning may
safely be carried out using mild soap
and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged. It is
essential to replace the entire assem-
bly after it has been worn in a severe
impact even if damage to the assem-
bly is not obvious. Belts should not
be worn with straps twisted. Each
seat belt assembly must only be
used by one occupant; it is danger-
ous to put a belt around a child being
carried on the occupant's lap.
(Continued)
If a child over 12 must be seated
in the front seat, he/she must be
properly belted and the seat
should be moved as far back as
possible.
• Never wear a seat belt over frag-
ile objects. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the seat belt can
damage it.
• Never wear the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your
back. An improperly positioned
shoulder belt can cause serious
injuries in a crash. The shoulder
belt should be positioned midway
over your shoulder across your
collarbone.
• Avoid wearing twisted seat belts.
A twisted belt can't do its job as
well. In a collision, it could even
cut into you. Be sure the belt
webbing is straight and not twist-
ed.
• Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. If the belt
webbing or hardware is dam-
aged, replace it.
