Safety features of your vehicle
WARNING -Loose
objects
Loose objects in the driver’s
foot area could interfere with
the operation of the foot pedals,
possibly causing an accident.
Do not place anything under the
front seats.WARNING -Driver
responsibility for passengers
Riding in a vehicle with the
seatback reclined could lead to
serious or fatal injury in an acci-
dent. If a seat is reclined during
an accident, the occupant’s
hips may slide under the lap
portion of the seat belt, apply-
ing great force to the unprotect-
ed abdomen. Serious or fatal
internal injuries could result.
The driver must advise the pas-
senger to keep the seatback in
an upright position whenever
the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING - Uprighting
seat
When you return the seatback
to its upright position, hold the
seatback and return it slowly
and be sure there are no other
occupants around the seat. If
the seatback is returned with-
out being held and controlled,
the back of the seat could
spring forward resulting in acci-
dental injury to a person struck
by the seatback.
WARNING
Occupants should never sit on
seat cushions. The passenger's
hips may slide under the lap
portion of the seat belt during
an accident or a sudden stop.
Serious or fatal internal injuries
could result because the seat
belt cannot operate normally.
WARNING - Driver’s seat
To avoid serious injury or death:
 Never attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is mov-
ing. This could result in loss
of control, and an accident
causing death, serious injury,
or property damage.
 Do not allow anything to inter- fere with the normal position
of the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any
other way interfering with
proper locking of a seatback
could result in serious or fatal
injury in a sudden stop or col-
lision.
 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 10 inches
(250 mm) away from the steer-
ing wheel.

WARNING - Rear 
seatbacks
 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.
 No passenger should ride in the cargo area or sit or lie on
folded seatbacks while the
vehicle is moving. All passen-
gers must be properly seated
in seats and restrained prop-
erly while riding.
 When resetting the seatback to the upright position, make
sure it is securely latched by
pushing it forward and rear-
wards.
 To avoid the possibility of burns, do not remove the car-
pet in the cargo area. Emission
control devices beneath this
floor generate high tempera-
tures.
(Continued)(Continued)
 Luggage and other cargoshould be laid flat in the cargo
area or on the folded rear
seatback. 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.
WARNING
After adjusting the seat, always
check that it is securely locked
into place by attempting to
move the seat forward or
reverse without using the lock
release lever. Sudden or unex-
pected movement of the dri-
ver's seat could cause you to
lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
WARNING
 Do not adjust the seat whilewearing seat belts. Moving the
seat cushion forward may
cause strong pressure on the
abdomen.
 Use extreme caution so that hands or other objects are not
caught in the seat mechanisms
while the seat is moving.
 Do not place a cigarette lighter on the floor or seat.
When you operate the seat,
gas may exit out of the lighter
and cause a fire.
 Use extreme caution when picking small objects trapped
under the seats or between
the seat and the center con-
sole. Your hands might be cut
or injured by the sharp edges
of the seats mechanism.

4-way lumbar support 
(for driver’s seat, if equipped)

by pressing the switch.
1. Press the front portion (1) of the switch to increase support, or the
rear portion (2) of the switch, to
decrease support.
2. Release the switch once it reach- es the desired position.
3. Press the upper portion (3) of the switch to move the support posi-
tion up, or press the lower portion
(4) of the switch, to move the sup-

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 com-
fort for the driver and front passenger,
but also helps to protect the head and
neck in the event of a collision.ONCESA2008
OHM038048N
WARNING - Headrest
adjustment
 For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the head-
rest should be adjusted so the
middle of the headrest is at the
same height as the center of
gravity of an occupant's head.
Generally, the center of gravity
of most people's head is simi-
lar with the height of the top of
their eyes.
Also adjust the headrest as
close to your head as possi-
ble. 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.
Severe injury to an occupant
may occur in the event of an
accident. Headrests may pro-
vide protection against severe
neck injuries when properly
adjusted.
 Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver's seat
while the vehicle is in motion.

Air ventilation seat (if equipped)
The air ventilation seat is provided to
cool the front seats during hot weath-
er by blowing air through small vent
holes on the surface of the seats.
While the engine is running, press
the cooling portion (blue color) of the
switch to cool the driver's seat or the
front passenger's seat.
When the operation of the seat cool-
er is not  needed, keep the switches
in the OFF position.
WARNING
The seat warmers can cause a
SERIOUS BURN, even at low
temperatures and especially if
used for long periods of time.
Passengers must be able to feel
if the seat is becoming too
warm so they can turn it off, if
needed.
People who cannot detect tem-
perature change or pain to the
skin should use extreme cau-
tion, especially the following
types of passengers:
 Infants, children, elderly or
disabled persons, or hospital
outpatients.
 People with sensitive skin or who burn easily.
 Fatigued individuals.
 Intoxicated individuals.
 People taking medication that can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness.
WARNING
NEVER place anything on the
seat that insulates against heat
when the seat warmer is in
operation, such as a blanket or
seat cushion. This may cause
the seat warmer to overheat,
causing a burn or damage to
the seat.
OANNSA2020CAUTION
