WARNING
Unlocked Seatback:
The seatback plays an important role
in your protection in a vehicle.
Leaving the seatback unlocked is
dangerous as it can allow passengers
to be ejected or thrown around and
baggage to strike occupants in a
sudden stop or collision, resulting in
severe injury. After adjusting the
seatback at any time, even when there
are no other passengers, rock the
seatback to make sure it is locked in
place.
Passenger on the Folded Seatback:
Driving with a passenger on the folded
seatback is dangerous. Allowing a
child to sit on the folded seatback
while the vehicle is moving is
particularly dangerous. During
sudden braking or even a minor
collision, a child not restrained in a
proper seat or child-restraint system
and seat belt could be thrown forward,
back or even out of the car resulting in
serious injuries or death. The child in
the cargo area could be thrown into
other occupants and cause serious
injury. Neve r allow a passenger to sit
or stand on the folded seatback while
the vehicle is moving.

original position, also replace the seat
belt to its normal position. Verify that
the seat belt pulls out and retracts.

attempting to push it forward and
backward.
qSide-Sliding Seat (right side)
The second-row seats can be put together
and used as a bench seat. Raise the side
seat-slide lever and slide the seat
sideways.
