NOTE
Use the seat warmer when the engine is
running, and do not continue to use it for a
long period.
The temperature of the seat warmer cannot be
adjusted because the temperature of the seat is
controlled by the thermostat.
q
Armrest
The armrest can be used or placed upright.
WARNING
Never position the shoulder portion of
a front seat belt over the armrest:
Positioning the shoulder portion of a
front seat belt over the armrest is
dangerous as it cannot provide
adequate protection in a collision
and could result in serious injuries.
Second-Row Seats
WARNING
Do not stack cargo higher than the
seatback:
Stacking luggage or other cargo
higher than the seatback is
dangerous. During a sudden stop or
collision, objects can fly around and
become projectiles that could hit and
injure passengers.
Make sure luggage and cargo is
secured before driving:
Not securing cargo while driving is
dangerous as it could move or be
crushed during sudden braking or a
collision and cause injury.
Make sure the adjustable components
of a seat are locked in place by
attempting to slide the seat forward
and backward and rocking the
seatback:
Adjustable seats that are not securely
latched are dangerous. In a sudden
stop or collision, the seat or seatback
could move, causing injury.
Adjust the seat only when the vehicle is
stopped:
Adjusting the seat while the vehicle is
moving is dangerous. Sudden
braking or a collision could cause
serious injury.
