WARNING

When folding the rear seatbacks down
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.

Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.

Stop the vehicle on level ground, set the parking brake and shift the shift
lever to P.

Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the luggage compart-
ment while driving.

Do not allow children to enter the luggage compartment.

Be careful not to get any part of your body pinched by a seat.

Seat adjustment

Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.

To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is reclined too far, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

After returning the rear seatbacks or installing seats
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.

Make sure the seatback is securely locked by pushing it forward and rear-
ward on the top.

Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught in the seatback.

Make sure the seat is locked in place by trying to shake the seatback and
lift up the seat cushion.

Removing the second seats

Do not leave a seat in the vehicle if it has been disengaged from the floor.

Do not sit on or place anything on a seat that has been removed from the
vehicle.

WARNING

Stowing the third seats

Make sure that the seat path is clear before moving the seat. Otherwise,
injury may result from contact with, or by being pinched by parts of the
seat.

Manual third seats: Do not sit on the third seat when it is in the stowed
position with the seatback upright.

Power third seats: Do not continue the stowing operation when the indica-
tor above the stowing switch and returning switch comes on or flashes. An
object or a person may be caught in the seat.

Power third seats: During the stowing operation, to prevent the vehicle
from moving, do not shift the shift lever out of P with the engine switch in
the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system) or IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with a smart key system).

When adjusting the seat position or the ottoman (vehicles with Otto-
man seats)
Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so as not to get them
caught.

When using the ottoman (vehicles with Ottoman seats)

Do not sit on the ottoman. Seat belts may not be properly worn which may
result in death or serious injury.

Stow the ottoman when you get in and out of the vehicle or when the otto-
man is not in use to avoid stumbling over it.

Do not use the ottoman feature when the vehicle is in motion. The ottoman
feature should only be used when the vehicle is stationary. If the ottoman
feature is in use during an accident the lap belt may slide past the hips.
This could also result in restraint forces being applied to the abdomen or
your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or
serious injury.

ing reinstallation of the seat.

above the outer trim, when removing from the storage box of the luggage
room.

Stowing the seat belt

Do not place any objects in the second passenger footwell that could pre-
vent the operation of the ottoman.

Do not place heavy luggage on the ottoman.
