{Warning
Use caution when adjusting the
seat, as failure to do so could
cause injury. You and others
could be seriously injured.
{Warning
Never allow children to adjust
their seats themselves; an adult
should adjust the seat for
occupants who are children. You
and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
Adjust the seat only before you
start driving. Adjusting the seat
while the vehicle is in motion
must be avoided not only
because the unlocked seat will
move back and forth unstably,
preventing you from taking the
correct position, but might also
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle, possibly resulting in an
accident. You and others could be
seriously injured.
{Warning
Try to move the seat without
unlatching it after making
adjustments to check that it is
completely locked. A loosely
locked seat may move
unexpectedly and your position
might then become unstable; this
could lead to an accident. Take

Warning (Continued)
the vehicle to your dealer for
service if you find that your seat
adjusters do not latch. In addition,
the seat belt will not operate
properly if the seatback is not
completely locked. You and
others could be seriously injured.
{Warning
Driving with the seat excessively
reclined could be very dangerous
in the event of a collision or
sudden stop. Raise the seatback,
and apply the seat belt correctly
while sitting straight in the seat.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
Do not place a cushion or similar
object between your back and the
seatback. Doing so not only
affects the stability of your driving
position but also prevents the
seat belt from working effectively
in the event of a collision. You
and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
Do not place any objects under
the seat. If there are any objects
under the seat, the seat could be
locked in an improper position.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
Before making adjustments,
check that the seat rails are free
of anything that could obstruct the
locking of the seat. Be careful that
your hand or foot does not
become trapped in the seat or
rails when adjusting the seat. You
and others could be seriously
injured.
{Warning
When adjusting the seat, be
careful that the seat does not hit
passengers or objects. Doing so
could cause injury to passengers,
or damage objects. You and
others could be seriously injured.

40 Seats and Restraints
{Warning
Make sure not to hit passengers
or luggage when adjusting your
seat. You and others could be
seriously injured.
{Warning
When adjusting the seat, or when
getting up from the seat, do not
put your hand or other objects
under the seat or near moving
parts. Doing so could cause injury
or damage to objects.
Driver’s Seat
The driver's seat must be adjusted
so that when you sit well back in the
seat, you can fully press the pedals
without moving your back from the
seatback, and you can operate the
steering wheel easily and freely.
After making adjustments, check
that the seat is completely locked. Adjusting the seat for a correct
driving posture is a fundamental
part of safe driving.
Forward/backward Adjustment
While raising the unlock lever, move
the seat forward or backward.
Release the lever when the seat is
in the desired position. After making
adjustments, try to move the seat
back and forth to check that it is
fully locked.
Reclining Adjustment
{Warning
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, an
occupied reclining seat should not
be reclined any more than
needed for comfort. The seatback
and seat belts provide best
restraint only when the rider is
sitting well back and straight up in
the seat. (The lap belt is designed
to spread the force of a collision
over the hipbone. If you are
reclined, the lap belt may slide
past your hips and apply restraint
forces directly to the abdomen.
Therefore, in the event of a
collision, the risk of personal
injury will increase with increasing
recline of the seatback). You and
others could be seriously injured.
