Safety features of your vehicle Seats

Never allow passengers to sit on top
of the folded down seatback while
the car is moving as 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 seats. This
could allow cargo to slide forward
and cause injury or damage during
sudden stops.
The rear seatbacks may be folded
forward to provide additional cargo
space and to provide access to the
cargo area.
• To raise the seatback, lift and
push it firmly until it clicks into
place.
• When you return the seatback to
its upright position, reposition the
rear safety belts so that they can
be used by rear seat passengers.
WARNING
Do not fold the rear seat, if the
driver’s position is not properly set
according to the driver’s physical
figure after folding the rear seat. A
sudden stop or collision may cause
injury.
CAUTION
• When folding or unfolding the rear
seat, make sure to move the front
seat fully forward. If there are
not enough space to fold the rear
seat, never fold it by force. It will
cause damage to the headrest or
the related parts of the seat.
• Before using the seat belt, be sure
to remove it from the holder. If
you pull out the seat belt while it’s
in the holder, it may damage the
seat belt or holder.
• Use the holder only when there is
no passenger in the rear seat or
when you need to fold the rear
seat.
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 headrests to the
lowest position.
