Safety features of your vehicle
4 3
WARNING -
Rear
seatbacks
• The rear seatback must be
securely latched. If not, passen-
gers and objects could be
thrown forward resulting in seri-
ous injury or death in the event
of a sudden stop or collision.
• 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 passen-
gers must be properly seated
in seats and restrained prop-
erly whilst riding.

• Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position
of the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any
other way interfering with
proper locking of a seatback
could result in serious or fatal
injury in a sudden stop or col-
lision.
• Always drive and ride with
your seatback upright and the
lap portion of the seat belt
snug and low across the hips.
This is the best position to
protect you in case of an acci-
dent.
• In order to avoid unnecessary
and perhaps severe air bag
injuries, always sit as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel whilst maintaining com-
fortable control of the vehicle.
We recommend that your chest
be at least 25 cm (10 inches)
away from the steering wheel.
WARNING
After adjusting the seat, always
check that it is securely locked
into place by attempting to
move the seat forward or back-
ward without using the lock
release lever. Sudden or unex-
pected movement of the dri-
ver's seat could cause you to
lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
(Continued)
• When resetting the seatback to
the upright position, make sure
it is securely latched by push-
ing it forward and backwards.
• To avoid the possibility of
burns, do not remove the car-
pet in the cargo area.
