restraint system
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the lap belt and receive serious internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back and upright in the seat with
both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt properly. See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-10).
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un­knowingly activate switches or con­trols. Unattended children could become involved in serious accidents.
. To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave children, people who require the assistance of others or pets unat­tended in your vehicle. Additionally, the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly become high enough to cause a sig­nificant risk of injury or death to people and pets.
. The seatback should not be reclined
further than necessary for comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits well back and straight up in the seat. If the seat­back is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.

CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure not to contact any moving parts to avoid possible injuries and/or damages.
FRONT SEATS

Operating tips:
. The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor stops during operation, wait 30 seconds, then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch for
a long period of time when the engine is off. This will discharge the battery.
See “Automatic drive positioner” (P.3-28) for the seat position memory function.
Forward and backward:
Moving the switch will slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position.
Reclining:
Move the recline switch the desired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback forward again, move the switch forward.
The reclining feature allows adjustment of the seatback for occupants of different sizes for added comfort and to help obtain proper seat belt fit. (See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-10).) Also, the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants to rest when the

ARMREST
Rear armrest
Pull the armrest forward until it is horizontal.
SSS0479
Head restraint/headrest supplement the other vehicle safety systems. They may provide additional protection against injury in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable head restraints/headrests must be adjusted properly, as specified in this section. Check the adjustment after someone else uses the seat. Do not attach anything to the head restraint/ headrest stalks or remove the head restraint/headrest. Do not use the seat if the head restraint/headrest has been removed. If the head restraint/headrest was removed, reinstall and properly adjust the head restraint/headrest be­fore an occupant uses the seating posi­tion. Failure to follow these instructions can reduce the effectiveness of the head restraint/headrest. This may increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision.
Trunk pass-through
The rear center seatback can be folded to allow trunk access from inside of the vehicle.
To access the trunk, pull down the rear center armrest and pull out the trunk pass­through lid
To lock the lid, use the mechanical key and turn it to the LOCK position turn the mechanical key to the UNLOCK position see “Keys” (P.3-2).
Make sure that the mechanical key is removed from the trunk pass-through lid key cylinder before opening or closing the lid. Otherwise the lid and the rear armrest may

equipped with a headrest. + Indicates the seating position is not
equipped with a head restraint or headrest. . Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be inte­grated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
. Adjustable head restraints/headrests
have multiple notches along the stalk to lock them in a desired adjustment posi­tion.
