Safety Precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting in a safe and comfortable position plays an important role in the safety of the driver and passengers as much as seat belts and airbags when in an accident.

WARNING
Do not use a cushion that reduces friction between the seat and the passenger. The passenger’s hips may slide under the lap portion of the seat belt during an accident or a sudden stop.

Serious or fatal internal injuries could result because the seat belt cannot operate properly.

Airbags
You can take steps to reduce the risk of being injured by an inflating airbag. Sitting too close to an airbag greatly increases the risk of injury in the event the airbag inflates. Move your seat as far back as possible from the front airbags while still maintaining control of the vehicle.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from an inflating airbag, take the following precautions:

• Adjust the driver’s seat as far to the rear as possible while maintaining the ability to control the vehicle.
• Adjust the front passenger seat as far to the rear as possible.
• Hold the steering wheel by the rim with your hands at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions to minimize the risk of injuries to your hands and arms.
• NEVER place anything or anyone between you and the airbag.
• Do not allow the front passenger to place feet or legs on the dashboard to minimize the risk of leg injuries.

Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before starting any trip. At all times, passengers should sit upright and be properly restrained. Infants and small children must be restrained in appropriate Child Restraint Systems. Children who have outgrown a booster seat and adults must be restrained using the seat belts.

WARNING
Take the following precautions when adjusting your seat belt:

• NEVER use one seat belt for more than one occupant.
• Always position the seatback upright with the lap portion of the seat belt snug and low across the hips.
• NEVER allow children or small infants, or pets to ride on a passenger’s lap.
• Do not route the seat belt across your neck, across sharp edges, or reroute the shoulder strap away from your body.
• Do not allow the seat belt to become caught or jammed.

Front Seats

WARNING
Take the following precautions when adjusting your seat:

• NEVER attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving. The seat could respond with unexpected movement and may cause loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident.
• Do not place anything under the front seats. Loose objects in the driver’s foot area could interfere with the operation of the foot pedals, causing an accident.
• Do not allow anything to interfere with the normal position and proper locking of the seatback.
• Do not place a cigarette lighter on the floor or seat. When you operate the seat, gas may exit out of the lighter causing a fire.
• Use extreme caution when picking up small objects trapped under the seats or between the seat and the center console. Your hands might be cut or injured by the sharp edges of the seat mechanism.
• If there are occupants in the rear seats, be careful while adjusting the front seat position.
• Make sure that the seat is locked in place after the adjustment. If not, the seat might move unexpectedly resulting in an accident.

CAUTION
To prevent injury:

• Do not adjust your seat while wearing your seat belt. Moving the seat cushion forward may cause strong pressure on your abdomen.
• Do not allow your hands or fingers to get caught in the seat mechanisms while the seat is moving.

WARNING
NEVER allow children in the vehicle unattended. The power seats are operable when the vehicle is turned off.

NOTICE
To prevent damage to the seats:

• Always stop adjusting the seats when the seat has been adjusted as far forward or rearward as possible.
• Do not adjust the seats longer than necessary when the vehicle is turned off. This may result in unnecessary battery drain.
• Do not operate two or more seats at the same time. This may result in an electrical malfunction.

Manual adjustment
The front seat can be adjusted by using the levers located underneath the seat cushion. Before driving, adjust the seat to the proper position so that you can easily control the steering wheel, foot pedals and controls on the instrument panel.

Forward and rearward adjustment

To move the seat forward or rearward:

1. Pull up the seat slide adjustment lever and hold it.
2. Slide the seat to the position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seat is locked in place. Move forward and rearward without using the lever. If the seat moves, it is not locked properly.

Seatback angle

1. Lean forward slightly and lift up the seatback lever.
2. Carefully lean back on the seat and adjust the seatback to the position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seatback is locked in place. (The lever MUST return to its original position for the seatback to lock.)

Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. Even when buckled up, the protection of your restraint system (seat belts and/or airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seatback.

WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seatback when the vehicle is moving.

Riding with a reclined seatback increases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop.

Drivers and passengers should ALWAYS sit well back in their seats, properly belted, and with the seatbacks upright.

Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly.

When the seatback is reclined, the shoulder belt cannot do its job because it will not be snug against your chest. Instead, it will be in front of you. During an accident, you could be thrown into the seat belt, causing neck or other injuries.

The more the seatback is reclined, the greater chance the passenger’s hips will slide under the lap belt or the passenger’s neck will strike the shoulder belt.

Seat height
To change the height of the seat cushion:

• Push down the lever several times, to lower the seat cushion.
• Pull up the lever several times, to raise the seat cushion.

Power adjustment
The front seat can be adjusted by using the control switches located on the outside of the seat cushion. Before driving, adjust the seat to the proper position so that you can easily control the steering wheel, foot pedals and controls on the instrument panel.

Forward and rearward adjustment To move the seat forward or rearward:

1. Push the control switch forward or rearward.
2. Release the switch once the seat reaches the desired position.

Seat cushion tilt/height adjustment

• Seat cushion tilt (1)

To change the angle of the front part of the seat cushion:

Push the front portion of the control switch up to raise or down to lower the front part of the seat cushion.

Release the switch once the seat reaches the desired position.

• Seat height (2)
  To change the height of the seat cushion:

Push the rear portion of the control switch up to raise or down to lower the height of the seat cushion.

Release the switch once the seat reaches the desired position.

Seatback angle adjustment

To recline the seatback:

1. Push the control switch forward or rearward.
2. Release the switch once the seatback reaches the desired position.

Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. Even when buckled up, the protection of your restraint system (seat belts and airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining your seatback.

WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seatback when the vehicle is moving.

Riding with a reclined seatback increases your chance of serious or fatal injuries in the event of a collision or sudden stop.

Driver and passengers should ALWAYS sit well back in their seats, properly belted, and with the seatbacks upright.

Seat belts must be snug against your hips and chest to work properly.

When the seatback is reclined, the shoulder belt cannot do its job because it will not be snug against your chest. Instead, it will be in front of you. During an accident, you could be thrown into the seat belt, causing neck or other injuries.

The more the seatback is reclined, the greater the chance the passenger’s hips will slide under the lap belt or the passenger’s neck will strike the shoulder belt.

Lumbar support

To adjust the lumbar support:

• Press the front portion of the switch (1) to increase support or the rear portion of the switch (2) to decrease support.

NOTICE
Do not continue to operate the lumbar support when the lumbar support provides its maximum support. Damage to the lumbar support motor could occur.

Seatback pocket

The seatback pocket is provided on the back of the front seatbacks.

CAUTION
Do not put heavy or sharp objects in the seatback pockets. In an accident, they could come loose from the pocket and injure occupants.

Rear Seats

WARNING
Take the following precautions:

• Folding the seats
  • Do not fold the seatback when the seat is occupied (for example, passenger, pets or luggage). It may injure the passenger or pet, or damage the luggage.
  • Never allow passengers to sit on top of the folded-down seatback while the vehicle is moving. This is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are available for use. This could result in serious injury or death in case of an accident or sudden stop.
     
  • Objects carried on the folded-down seatback should not extend higher than the top of the front seatback. This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or damage during sudden stops.
  • When returning the rear seatback from a folded to an upright position, hold the seatback and return it slowly. Ensure that the seatback is completely locked into its upright position by pushing on the top of the seatback. In an accident or sudden stop, the unlocked seatback could allow cargo to move forward with great force and enter the passenger compartment, which could result in serious injury or death.
  • When folding the seatback, slightly push the seatback or head restraint against the folding direction to control the folding speed. Without the push, the seatback may abruptly fold down and cause injuries when the lever is pulled.

CAUTION
Do not allow your hands or fingers to get caught in the seat mechanisms while adjusting the seats.

NOTICE
To prevent damage to the vehicle:

• Rear seat belts
  Before folding the seatback, insert the seat belt buckle in the holder between the seatback and cushion. Insert the seat belt webbing in the guide to prevent the seat belt from being damaged.
• Cargo
  Be careful when loading cargo through the rear passenger seats to prevent damage to the vehicle interior.

Folding the rear seats
The rear seatbacks can be folded to facilitate carrying long items or to increase the luggage capacity of the vehicle.

To fold down the rear seatback:

1. Set the front seatback to the upright position and if necessary, slide the front seat forward.
2. Lower the rear head restraints to the lowest position.
3. Route the seat belt webbing to the outward of the rear seat to prevent the belts from being trapped behind or under the seats.
4. Fold the seatback toward the front of the vehicle.
5. To use the rear seat, lift and pull the seat back rearward. Pull the seatback firmly until it clicks into place. Make sure the seatback is locked in place.

Armrest

The armrest is located in the centre of the rear seat. Pull the armrest down from the seatback to use it.

CAUTION
The armrest handle may be pressed when folding the rear seatback, but it will be restored after a certain period.
