seat
When you return the seatback
to its upright position, hold the
seatback and return it slowlyand 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 - 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 applying
great force to the unprotected
abdomen. Serious or fatal inter-
nal injuries could result. The
driver must advise the passen-
ger to keep the seatback in an
upright position whenever the
vehicle is in motion.WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that reduces friction between
the seat and passenger. The
passenger’s hips may slide
under the lap portion of the seatbelt during an accident or a
sudden stop. Serious or fatalinternal injuries could resultbecause the seat belt cannot
operate normally.

WARNING - Driver’s seat
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 prop-
er locking of a seatback could
result in serious or fatal injury
in a sudden stop or collision.
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 protect youin case of an accident.
(Continued)(Continued)
In order to avoid unnecessaryand perhaps severe air bag
injuries, always sit as far back
as possible from the steeringwheel 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
seatbacks
The rear seatback must be securely latched. If not, passen-
gers and objects could be
thrown forward resulting in seri-
ous injury or death in the event
of a sudden stop or collision.
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 seatbacks. Failure to
follow these warnings could
result in serious injury or
death in the event of a sudden
stop, collision or rollover.
