CAUTION
When operating a seat, be careful
not to put your hands or fingers near
the moving parts of the seat or on
the side trim to prevent injury.
 When moving the seats, make sure
there is no cargo in the surrounding
area. If the cargo gets caught it could
damage the cargo.
 (Manual Seat)
When moving the seats forward and
rearward or returning a rear-reclined
seatback to its upright position,
make sure you hold onto the
seatback with your hand while
operating. If the seatback is not held,
the seat will move suddenly and
could cause injury.
 When inserting your hand under the
seat to clean the cabin or pick up
something you dropped under the
seat, be careful not to hurt yourself.
If you contact the moving parts and
surrounding parts around the seat
rail, seat frame, and the bottom of
the seat, it could result in injury.
NOTE
When returning a rear seat to its
original position, place the seat belt
in its normal position. Verify that the
seat belt pulls out and retracts.
(Power Seat)
The seat-base power adjustment is
operated by motors. Avoid extended
operation because excessive use can
damage the motors.
To prevent the battery from
running down, avoid using the
power adjustment when the
engine is stopped. The adjuster
uses a large amount of electrical
power.
Do not use the switch to make
more than one adjustment at a
time.
