WARNING - Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is mov-
ing. This could result in loss of
control of your vehicle.
Do not allow anything to inter- fere with the normal position
of the seatback and seatback
adjustment.
Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the
lap portion of the seat belt
snug and low across the hips.
This is the best position to pro-
tect you in case of an accident.
In order to avoid unnecessary and perhaps severe air bag
injuries, always sit as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel while maintaining com-
fortable control of the vehicle.
We recommend that your chest
be at least 25 cm (10 inches)
away from the steering wheel.WARNING - Rear seat-
backs
The rear seatback must be securely latched. If not, pas-
sengers and objects could be
thrown forward resulting in
serious injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or col-
lision.
Luggage and other cargo should be laid flat in the cargo
area. If objects are large,
heavy, or must be piled, they
must be secured. Under no
circumstances should cargo
be piled higher than the seat-
backs. Failure to follow these
warnings could result in seri-
ous injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop, colli-
sion or rollover.
(Continued)(Continued)
No passenger should ride inthe cargo area or sit or lie on
folded seatbacks while the
vehicle is moving.
All passengers must be prop-
erly seated in seats and
restrained properly while rid-
ing.
When resetting the seatback to the upright position, make
sure it is securely latched by
pushing it forward and back-
wards.
To avoid the possibility of burns, do not remove the car-
pet in the cargo area.
Emission control devices
beneath this floor generate

Driving with a trailer
Towing a trailer requires a certain
amount of experience. Before setting
out for the open road, you must get
to know your trailer. Acquaint your-
self with the feel of handling and
braking with the added weight of the
trailer. And always keep in mind that
the vehicle you are driving is now a
good deal longer and not nearly so
responsive as your vehicle is by
itself.
Before you start, check the trailer
hitch and platform, safety chains,
electrical connector(s), lights, tires
and mirror adjustment. If the trailer
has electric brakes, start your vehicle
and trailer moving and then apply the
trailer brake controller by hand to be
sure the brakes are working. This lets
you check your electrical connection
at the same time.
During your trip, check occasionally
to be sure that the load is secure,
and that the lights and any trailer
brakes are still working.
Following distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the
vehicle ahead as you would when
driving your vehicle without a trailer.
This can help you avoid situations
that require heavy braking and sud-
den turns.
Passing
You’ll need more passing distance
up ahead when you’re towing a trail-
er. And, because of the increased
vehicle length, you’ll need to go
much farther beyond the passed
vehicle before you can return to your
lane. Due to the added load to the
engine when going uphill the vehicle
may also take longer to pass than it
would on flat ground.
Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering
wheel with one hand. Then, to move
the trailer to the left, just move your
hand to the left. To move the trailer to
the right, move your hand to the
right. Always back up slowly and, if
possible, have someone guide you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer,
make wider turns than normal. Do
this so your trailer won’t strike soft
shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees,
or other objects near the edge of the
road. Avoid jerky or sudden maneu-
vers. Signal well in advance before
turning or lane changes.
