WARNING
■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers are not
injured by the moving seat.
●Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
●Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not get stuck.
■Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap be lt during a collision, do not recline the seat
more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the shou lder belt, increasing the risk
of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while drivin g as the seat may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

WARNING
■Limitations of the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system
Do not overly rely on the system, as doing so may lead to an accident.
●The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive carefully, taking care to
observe your surroundings. The Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is designed to
provide support to lessen the severity of collisions. However, it may not operate in
some situations.
●The Intelligent Clearance Sonar system is not designed to stop the vehicle com-
pletely. Additionally, even if the system has stopped the vehicle, it is necessary to
depress the brake pedal immediately as brak e control will be canceled after approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
■To ensure the Intelligent Clearance Sonar system can operate properly
Observe the following precauti ons regarding the sensors (P. 345). Failure to do so
may cause a sensor to not operate pr operly, and may cause an accident.
●Do not modify, disassemble or paint the sensors.
●Do not replace a sensor with a part other than a genuine part.
●Do not subject a sensor or its surrounding area to a strong impact.
●Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean.
Observe the following precaution s regarding the radar sensors (P. 322). Failure to
do so may cause a radar sensor to not op erate properly, and may cause an accident.
●Do not modify, disassemble or paint the sensors.
●Do not replace a radar sensor with a part other than a genuine part.
●Do not subject a radar sensor or its surrounding area to a strong impact.
●Do not damage the radar sensors, and alwa ys keep the radar sensors and their sur-
rounding area on the bumper clean.
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as changes to the height or inclination of the vehicle may
prevent the sensors from detecting objects co rrectly or cause the system to not oper-
ate or operate unnecessarily.
