1-1. Front Seats

WARNING

Never adjust the seat while driv-

ing, as personal injury or loss of
vehicle control may occur.

Before adjusting the seat, ensure

nothing is blocking the adjusting
mechanism.

After adjusting the seat, move it

back and forth to ensure the seat
is securely locked. If it is not, it
may move suddenly or the seat-
belt may not operate properly.

Do not put objects under the front

seats. They may interfere with
front seat locking mechanism
and cause an accident.

Seatbelts provide maximum re-

straint when the occupant sits
back and upright in the seat. To
reduce the risk of sliding under
the seatbelt in a collision, the
front seatbacks should always
be used in the upright position
while the vehicle is running. If the
front seatbacks are not in the
upright position and a collision
occurs, 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.

The SRS airbags deploy with

considerable speed and force.
Occupants who are not seated
in the proper upright position
when the SRS airbag deploys
could suffer very serious injury.
Because the SRS airbag needs
enough space for deployment,
the driver should always sit up-
right and well back in the seat as
far from the steering wheel as
practical while still maintaining
full vehicle control, and the front
passenger should move the seat
as far back as possible and sit
upright and well back in the seat.

WARNING

Seat children in the rear seat prop-
erly restrained at all times. The SRS
airbag deploys with considerable
speed and force and can injure or
even kill children, especially if they
are not restrained or improperly
restrained. Because children are
lighter and weaker than adults, their
risk of being injured from deploy-
ment is greater. For that reason, we
strongly recommend that ALL chil-
dren (including those in child re-
straint systems) sit in the REAR seat
properly restrained at all times in a
child restraint system or in a seat-
belt, whichever is appropriate for the
child’s age, height and weight. Se-

Front Seats

(31,1)

cure ALL types of child systems in
the REAR seats at all times.

NEVER INSTALL A CHILD RE-
STRAINT SYSTEM IN THE FRONT
PASSENGER’S SEAT. DOING SO
RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
TO THE CHILD BY PLACING THE
CHILD’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO THE
SRS AIRBAG.

According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating posi-
tions than in the front seating posi-
tions. For instructions and precau-
tions concerning child restraint sys-
tems, refer to “Child Restraint Sys-
tems”

�

P59.

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 injury or death.

WARNING

Do not let rear passengers rest their
feet between the front seatback and
seat cushion. Doing so may interfere
with the proper operation of the
following systems and could result
in serious injury.

WARNING

Do not press your feet onto the
instrument panel. Doing so may
prevent the occupant detection
function of the SRS airbag system
from functioning correctly, and may
result in serious injury or death in
the event of an accident.

WARNING

Seatbelts provide maximum re-
straint when the occupant sits well
back and upright in the seat. Do not
put cushions or any other materials
between occupants and seatbacks
or seat cushions. 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.

WARNING

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

Head Restraint Adjustment

WARNING

Never drive the vehicle with the

head restraints removed because
they are designed to reduce the
risk of serious neck injury in the
event that the vehicle is struck
from the rear. Also, never install
the head restraints backwards.
Doing so will prevent the head
restraints from functioning as
intended. Therefore, when the

– CONTINUED –

Front Seats

Seat,

and

(40,1)

head restraints are removed, all
head restraints must be rein-
stalled properly to protect vehicle
occupants.

The vehicle should not be oper-

ated until the head restraints are
installed in their proper posi-
tions.

The front seat head restraints are

designed to be installed into the
front seats only. The rear seat
head restraints are designed to
be installed into the rear seats
only. Do not attempt to install the
front seat head restraints into the
rear seats, or the rear seat head
restraints into the front seats.

Both the driver’s seat and front passen-
ger’s seat are equipped with head re-
straints. Both head restraints are adjusta-
ble in the following ways.

Head restraint height adjustment
