• To avoid the possibility of burns, do
not remove the carpet in the cargo
area. Emission control devices
beneath this floor generate high
temperatures.
WARNING
- Rear seatbacks
• The rear seatback must be secure-
ly latched. If not, passengers and
objects could be thrown forward
resulting in serious injury or death
in the event of a sudden stop or col-
lision.
• Luggage and other cargo should
be laid flat in the cargo area. If
objects are large, heavy, or must be
piled, they must be secured. Under
no circumstances should cargo be
piled higher than the seatbacks.
Failure to follow these warnings
could result in serious injury or
death in the event of a sudden stop,
collision or rollover.
• No passenger should ride in the
cargo area or sit or lie on folded
seatbacks whilst the vehicle is
moving. All passengers must be
properly seated in seats and
restrained properly whilst riding.
• When resetting the seatback to the
upright position, make sure it is
securely latched by pushing it for-
ward and backwards.

WARNING
After adjusting the seat, always check
that it is securely locked into place by
attempting to move the seat forward
or backward without using the lock
release lever. Sudden or unexpected
movement of the driver's seat could
cause you to lose control of the vehi-
cle resulting in an accident.
WARNING
• Do not adjust the seat whilst wear-
ing seat belts. Moving the seat
cushion forward may cause strong
pressure on the abdomen.
• Use extreme caution so that hands
or other objects are not caught in
the seat mechanisms whilst the
seat is moving.
• Do not put a cigarette lighter on the
floor or seat. When you operate the
seat, gas may gush out of the
lighter and cause fire.
• Use extreme caution when pick-
ing small objects trapped under
the seats or between the seat and
the centre console. Your hands
might be cut or injured by the
sharp edges of the seat mecha-
nism.
