FOR SAFE DRIVING
A WARNING
Improperly using the seat heater can be hazardous. An occupant can suffer burns even if the heating temperature is fairly low, if the occupant is wearing thin pants, a thin skirt or shorts and leaves the heater on for long periods. Avoid using the seat heater for these occupants: People who have reduced feeling in their legs, including the elderly or those with certain disabilities. • Small children, or anyone with sensitive skin. • People who are asleep or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs which make them tired.

NOTICE
To avoid damaging the heater element: • Do not subject the front seats to heavy impacts, such as children jumping on them. Do not cover the seat with any insulating materials such as blankets or cushions.
Rear seats
Head restraints (if equipped)
Head restraints are designed to help reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case of an accident.
A WARNING
Never drive the vehicle with the head restraints removed. Do not attempt to adjust the head restraint while driving.
NOTE: It may be necessary to fold forward the seatback to provide enough overhead clearance to remove the head restraint.
Adjust the head restraint to the position which places the center of the head restraint closest to the top of your ears. If this is not possible for very tall passengers, adjust the head restraint as high as possible.

To raise the rear head restraint, pull upward the head restraint until it clicks. To lower the head restraint, push down the head restraint while holding in the lock lever. If a head restraint must be removed (for cleaning, replacement, etc.), push in the lock lever and pull the head restraint all the way out.
When installing a child restraint system, adjust the height of the head restraint or remove it for fitting the child restraint, as necessary.
Folding rear seats
A CAUTION
Remove objects from the rear seats before folding the rear seats. There may be a case that the rear seat belt reminder (if equipped) will not be activated, if objects are remained on the rear seats.
The rear seats of your vehicle can be folded forward to provide additional cargo space.
To fold the rear seats forward:
1) Lower the head restraint (if equipped) fully.
2) Hook the webbing of the outboard lapshoulder belts in the belt hangers.
FOR SAFE DRIVING
NOTICE
Make sure the belt webbing is not twisted. • When you move a seatback, make sure the belt webbing is hooked in the seat belt hangers so the seat belts are not caught by the seatback, seat hinge, or seat latch. This helps prevent damage to the belt system.

3) For the split seat, pull the release strap on the top of each split seat, and fold the seatbacks forward. For the bench seat, pull the both release straps on the fop of the bench seat together, and fold the seatback forward.
