Make sure there is nobody in the rear
seat area before operating (pulling) the
remote handle levers (Vehicles with
remote handle):
Not checking the rear seat area for
persons before folding the seatbacks
with the strap/remote handle levers
is dangerous. The rear seat area is
difficult to see from the rear of the
vehicle. Operating (pulling) the
remote handle levers without
checking could cause injury to a
person when a seatback suddenly
flips forward.CAUTION
ØWhen operating the rear seatback
knob, make sure you support the
seatback with your hand. If the
seatback is not supported with
your hand, it will flip forward
suddenly and could cause injury to
the finger that pushes the rear
seatback knob down.
Ø(Vehicles with remote handle)
Before folding the seatbacks down
with the remote handle levers,
make sure there is no cup in a rear
cup holder. Folding the seatbacks
with the remote handle levers
while a cup is in the cup holder
could soil or damage the seat
bottom and seatback.
Ø(Vehicles with remote handle)
Be careful of the following when
using the remote handle levers:
ØOn a downward slope, the
seatback could flip forward
faster than on a flat surface.
ØOn an upward slope, the
seatback may not fold down.
When the seatbacks cannot be
folded down with levers, pull
the rear seatback forward from
inside the vehicle.
