WARNINGlIf the auxiliary battery terminals are dis-
connected or the fuse for electric window
is replaced, the safety mechanism will be
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.

the switch is pulled up. Therefore be espe-
cially careful that fingers are not trapped in the door window opening.NOTEl The safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstancescause the driver’s door window to be subjec- ted to a physical shock similar to that caused
by a trapped hand or head.NOTEl If the auxiliary battery terminals are discon-

Seat arrangement
5-02OGGE18E1Seats and seat belts5

WARNINGlDo 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.
l 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 The reclining mechanism of the front seat’s
seatback is spring loaded, causing it to return
to the vertical position when the lock lever is
operated. When using the lever, sit close to the seatback or hold it with your hand to
control its return motion.
l When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.
l When adjusting the front seat while the rear
seat is folded, be careful not to apply strong force to the flipped rear seat cushion.
Doing so could cause damage to the cover of
the front seat and the fitting of the rear seat cushion.Front seats

Heated seats*
E00401102371
The heated seats can be operated with the op-
eration mode of the power switch in ON. Op-
erate the switch as indicated by arrows.
The indication lamp (A) will illuminate while
the heater is on.1 (HI)-Heater high (for quick heating).2 (neu-
tral po- sition)-Heater off.3 (LO)-Heater low (to keep the seat warm).CAUTIONl 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.CAUTIONl 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
• People under the influence of alcohol or
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.
l Do not use a blanket, cushion, or other mate-
rial with high heat insulation properties on the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat.
l Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol, alcohol
or other organic solvents when cleaning the seats. Doing so could damage not only the seat cover, but also the heater element.
l If water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before at-tempting to use the heater. Turn the heater
off immediately if it appears to be malfunc-
tioning during use.
