2 This indicator light turns on to remind you that the front passenger’s front/side
airbags and seat belt pretensioner will not deploy during a collision. The reason
for this is that the sensor has determined that an adult is not sitting in the front passenger seat.
NOTE: If a smaller adult sits on the front passenger seat, the sensors might detect the adult as being a child depending on the person’s physique and may deactivate the front passenger’s front/side
airbags and seat belt pretensioner. Always wear your seat belt and secure children in the rear seats in
appropriate child restraints. See the Owner’s Manual for important information on this safety feature.

the gap between your head and the headrest (to prevent whiplash).
REAR SEATS
Push the button to fold down the seatback.

adjust the front seats all the way back, the headrests
on the rear seats need to be removed when folding
the rear seatbacks down. If not removed, the rear
headrest will push into the front seatback. In order
to remove the headrest from the rear seat, the
seatback needs to be tilted slightly forward.
