Warning! G
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seating positions than in the front seat-
ing position. Thus, we strongly recommend
that children be placed in the rear seats
whenever possible. Regardless of seating
position, children 12 years old and under
must be seated and properly secured in an
appropriately sized infant restraint, toddler
restraint, or booster seat recommended for
the size and weight of the child. For addi-
tional information, see “Children in the vehi-
cle” (
୴ page 89).
A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries is
significantly increased if the child restraints
are not properly secured in the vehicle
and/or the child is not properly secured in
the child restraint.
!
When moving the seats, make sure there are
no items in the footwell or behind the seats;
otherwise you could damage the seats.
!
When the rear seats are folded forward, e.g.
for cargo compartment expansion (
୴ page 269),
the front seats may not be moved to the rear-
most position. Otherwise you could damage the
front and rear seats.
!
When adjusting the seat backrest tilt and
head restraint height, make sure the sun visor is
folded up (
୴ page 201). If the head restraint is in
the uppermost position, it could hit and damage
the sun visor.
