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.

Caution (Continued)
conditions. Damage may result
from excessive wheel spinning,
including tire, transmission, and/
or rear axle malfunction.
If the vehicle gets stuck and it is
difficult to get out, immediately
stop driving and have the vehicle
towed.
If the vehicle gets stuck in sand,
mud, snow or ice, move the selector
lever from 2 to the R position. Apply
a light pressure to the accelerator
pedal while the transmission is in
gear. Remove your foot from the
accelerator and press the brake
pedal while shifting. Do not race the
engine. For best traction, avoid
spinning the wheels. When you
cannot avoid driving through deep
mud, using tire chains is an effective
way to avoid getting stuck.
When driving in sand or mud, avoid
hard braking, sudden acceleration,
and sharp turns of the steering wheel. Such actions could get the
vehicle stuck and make it difficult to
get out.
After driving through deep mud: any
mud stuck to the vehicle can harm
the steering, brakes and powertrain.
Wash the vehicle and remove all
mud and other debris.
The vehicle speed sensors are fitted
on the wheels. When removing mud
and other debris, take great care not
to damage the components.
Do not use a sharp implement to
remove mud. Sharp edges could
damage rubber parts.

Antilock Brake System
(ABS) 0216 andExterior Care
