Second-row seats

WARNING

Seatbelts provide maximum re-

straint when the occupant sits
back and upright in the seat. Do
not place cushions or any other
materials between occupants
and seatbacks or seat cushions.
By doing so, the risk of sliding
under the lap belt and of the lap
belt sliding up over the abdomen
will increase, and both can result
in serious injury or death.

Never adjust the seat while driv-

ing. Doing so is dangerous as the
seat could move rapidly and you
could be injured.

Before adjusting the seat, make

sure the hands and feet of the
third-row seat passengers are
clear of the adjusting mechan-
ism.

After adjusting the seat, move it

back and forth to make sure it is
securely locked. If the seat is not
securely locked, it may move or
the seatbelt may not operate
properly.

Do not put objects under the

second-row seats. They may in-
terfere with the seat locking and
cause an accident.

Seats

(43,1)

WARNING

Never stack luggage or other cargo
higher than the top of the seatback
as it could tumble forward and injure
passengers in the event of a sudden
stop or accident.

Forward and backward adjustment

Captain seat

Bench seat

Pull the lever upward and slide the seat to
the desired position.

Reclining the seatback

WARNING

To prevent the passenger from slid-
ing under the seatbelt in the event of
a collision, always put the seatback
in the upright position while the
vehicle is in motion. Also, do not
place objects such as cushions
between the passenger and the seat-
back. If you do so, the risk of sliding
under the lap belt and of the lap belt
sliding up over the abdomen will
increase, and both can result in
serious internal injury or death.

CAUTION

Never allow the third-row seat

passengers to adjust the seat-
back of the second row. Doing so
is dangerous as the seatback will
tilt rapidly and could injure the
passengers.

If the cargo area cover is
equipped, be careful not to pinch
your hand between the headrest
and the cargo area cover when
you recline the seatback.

Pull the lever up and adjust the seatback to
the desired position.
Then release the lever and make sure the
seatback is securely locked into place.

Folding down the seatback

WARNING

Never allow passengers to ride

on the folded seatback or in the
cargo area. Doing so may result
in serious injury or death.

Secure skis and other long items

properly to prevent them from
being thrown around inside the
vehicle and causing serious in-
jury during a sudden stop, steer-
ing maneuver or acceleration.

If passengers are sitting on the

third-row seat, never drive while
folding the second-row seat. It
can be a serious interference at
the time of braking and impact.

If passengers are sitting on the

third-row seat, never drive while
the center seatback of the sec-
ond-row seat is folded. Doing so
may result in serious injury in the
event of hard braking or an
impact.

When you return the seatback to

its original position, shake it
slightly to confirm that it is se-
curely in place. If it is not securely
fixed in place, it may suddenly

fold down in the event of sudden
braking, or objects may move out
from the cargo area. Both could
cause serious injury or death.

After returning the seatback to its

original position, be sure to place
all of the seatbelts and the tab
attached to the seat cushion
above the seat cushion. Also,
make certain that the shoulder
belts are fully visible.

1. Store the armrest.
2. Store the seatbelt buckle.

tened. The seatbelt may be unable to
fulfill its intended function in the
event of an accident, possibly re-
sulting in serious injury.

Third-row seats

WARNING

Seatbelts provide maximum re-
straint when the occupant sits back
and upright in the seat. Do not place
cushions or any other materials
between occupants and seatbacks
or seat cushions. By doing so, the
risk of sliding under the lap belt and
of the lap belt sliding up over the
abdomen will increase, and both can
result in serious injury or death.

WARNING

Never stack luggage or other cargo
higher than the top of the seatback,
as it could tumble forward and injure
passengers in the event of a sudden
stop or accident.

Third-row seats

Pull the strap up and adjust the seatback to
the desired position. Then release the
strap and make sure the seatback is
securely locked into place.

Access to the third-row seats

There are levers on both window sides of
the second-row seat. Each lever is used to
facilitate access to the third-row seat.

WARNING

In its slid-forward position with the
seatback tipped forward, the sec-
ond-row seat is not locked and is
free to move. Do not drive the
vehicle with the seat in this state or
allow anyone to sit on the seat
unless it is completely locked. Doing

so may result in serious injury or
death.

CAUTION

CAUTION

Do not put hard or heavy objects

or ones with protrusions on the
seat, and do not stab the seat
with sharp objects, such as pins

or before you leave the vehicle,
be sure to turn off the seat heater.

NOTE

Use of the seat heater for a long

period of time while the engine is not
