The door windows can be opened or closed
for 30 seconds after the ignition switch is turned from the “ON” position to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. If the driver’s door is
opened during this period, the door window
can be opened or closed for another 30 sec- onds.

the windows cannot be operated.
Safety mechanism
E00302500218
If a hand or head is trapped in the closing window, it will lower automatically.
Nonetheless, make sure that nobody puts
their head or hand out of the window when
closing a window.
The lowered window will become operation-
al after a few seconds.
WARNINGl If the safety mechanism is activated three
or more times successively, the safety
mechanism will be temporarily cancelled.
If a hand or head got trapped, a serious injury could result.CAUTIONl The safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the window is fully closed. This allows the window to close completely. Therefore be especially careful that no fingers are trap-
ped in the window.NOTEl The safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstancescause the door windows to be subjected to a
physical shock similar to that caused by a trapped hand or head.NOTEl If the safety mechanism is activated three or
more times in a row, the safety mechanism
will be cancelled and the door window will not close correctly.
In such a case, the following procedure
should be implemented to rectify this situa- tion. If the window is open, repeatedly raise
the appropriate window switch until that window has been fully closed. Following
this, release the switch, raise the switch once again and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should now be
able to operate all windows in the normal fashion.Rear side/quarter window

Seat adjustmentE00400301988
Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are com- fortable and that you can reach the pedals,
steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision.WARNINGl Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.
l Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equip- ped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehi- cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child restraint.
l To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,the seatbacks should always be in the al-
most upright position while the vehicle is in motion. The protection provided by theseat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in- jury, when the seatback is reclined.WARNINGl Do not place objects under the seats. This
could prevent the seat from locking se-curely, and it could lead to an accident. It
may also cause damage to the seat or oth-
er parts.CAUTIONl Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving.The effectiveness of the head restraints will
be reduced in the event of an accident.

l Operate in the high position for quick heat-
ing. Once the seat is warm, set the heater to low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature may be felt while using the heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of the heater’s internal thermostat and does not indicate a malfunction.
l If the following types of persons use the
heated seats, they might become too hot or receive minor burns (red skin, heat blisters,
etc.):
• Children, elderly or ill people
• People with sensitive skin
• Excessively tired people

sleep inducing medication (cold medicine, etc.)
l Do not place heavy objects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or other pointed objects into it.

rial with high heat insulation properties on the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat.
l When cleaning the seat, do not use benzene,
kerosene, petrol, alcohol, or other organicsolvents; these might damage the surface of the seat and also the heater element.CAUTIONl If water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before at-tempting to use the heater.
