• Af ter adjustment, gently rock in the
seat to make sure it is securely
locked.
• Do not ride in a moving vehicle when

dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious injuries.
You could also slide under the lap belt
and receive serious internal injuries.
• For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit

ditional information, see “Precau-
tions on seat belt usage” (P. 1-20).

ARMRESTS
The 2nd row bench seat or the 2nd row
captain’s seats come equipped with arm-
rest(s). Pull the armrest down as shown.
FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
• Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seats when
they are in the fold-down position. In
a collision, people riding in these ar-
eas without proper restraints are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed. •
When folding the bench seat seat-
back down for maximum storage,
make sure the seat base is in the
latched position by rocking the seat
base. If the seat base is not properly
secured, cargo stored on top of a
folded seatback may become a pro-
jectile causing personal injury or ve-
hicle damage.
• Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Do not allow more than one person
to use the same seat belt.
• Do not fold down the rear seats when
occupants are in the rear seat area or
any luggage is on the rear seats.
– Make sure that the seat path is
clear before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or
feet to get caught or pinched in
the seat.

•Head restraints/headrests should be
adjusted properly as they may pro-
vide significant protection against
injury in an accident. Always replace
and adjust them properly if they have
been removed for any reason.
• If the head restraints/headrests are
removed for any reason, they should
be securely stored to prevent them
from causing injury to passengers or
damage to the vehicle in case of sud-
den braking or an accident.
• When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched
position. If they are not completely
secured, passengers may be injured
in an accident or sudden stop.

vent it from sliding or shif ting. Do not
place cargo higher than the seat-
backs. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.CAUTION

that the cargo does not contact the
center console of the captain’s seat
(if so equipped) to avoid possible
damage to the console.
