WARNING
Do not drive with the seatback
unlocked:
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.
Never lower a front seatback while an
occupant is seated in the seat, even if
the vehicle is stopped:
Lowering a front seatback while an
occupant is seated in the seat is
dangerous because the seatback
folds down suddenly when operated
which could cause an injury.
Never lower a front seatback while the
vehicle is moving:
Lowering a front seatback while the
vehicle is moving is dangerous
because the seatback folds down
suddenly when operated which could
result in an accident or injury.
CAUTION
Ø When operating the seatback,
support the seatback firmly with
one hand while it folds down.
When lowering the seatback, be
careful not to pinch or injure your
hand or fingers.
Ø Do not step on the lever as it could
damage it.
Because your vehicle has free-style doors
(page 3-30), the rear door cannot be
opened while the front door is closed. To
exit the rear seating area, fold the front
seatback forward using the following
procedure and open the front door first.
NOTE
The seatback folding feature is not equipped
on the manually operated driver's seat. The
feature is only available on the power seat.
