WARNING
∙ Do not ride in a moving vehicle whenthe seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious injuries.
You could also slide under the lap belt
and receive serious internal injuries.
∙ For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat
should be upright. Always sit well
back and upright in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat
properly. For additional information,
refer to “Precautions on seat belt us-
age” in this section.
∙ Af ter adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
∙ Do not leave children unattended in- side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls or
make the vehicle move. Unattended
children could become involved in se-
rious accidents. ∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, do not
leave children, people who require the
assistance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly be-
come high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.
∙ Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be given
to vehicle operation. The seat may
move suddenly and could cause loss
of control of the vehicle.
∙ The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when the
passenger sits well back and straight
up in the seat. If the seatback is re-
clined, the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and being injured is increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries and/or damage.

JUMP SEAT (if so equipped)
WARNING
∙ Do not use a child restraint in the driv-er’s side jump seat. This seating posi-
tion is not suitable for child restraint
installation. A child restraint can be in-
stalled in the passenger’s side jump
seat when the seat extension is un-

bench seat, pull on the tab in the center of
the seat and fold it down as shown.
FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
∙ Never allow anyone to ride in thecargo area or on the rear seats when
they are in the fold-down position. In a
collision, people riding in these areas
without proper restraints are more
likely to be seriously injured or killed. ∙ Do not allow people to ride in any area
of your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seat belts. Be sure ev-
eryone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
∙ Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.
∙ Do not fold down the rear seats when occupants are in the rear seat area or
any luggage is on the rear seats.
– Make sure that the seat path is clear before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or feet to get caught or pinched in the
seat.
∙ Head restraints/headrests should be adjusted properly as they may pro-
vide significant protection against in-
jury in an accident. Always replace
and adjust them properly if they have
been removed for any reason.
∙ If the head restraints/headrests are removed for any reason, they should
be securely stored to prevent them
from causing injury to passengers or
damage to the vehicle in case of sud-
den braking or an accident.
