WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION REMINDERS!
Follow these important driving rules to help ensure a safe and comfortable trip for you and your passengers!
NEVER drive under the influence of al­cohol or drugs.
ALWAYS observe posted speed limits and never drive too fast for conditions.
ALWAYS give your full attention to driving
and avoid using vehicle features or taking other actions that could distract you.
ALWAYS use your seat belts and appro­priate child restraint systems. Pre-teen children should be seated in the rear seat.
ALWAYS provide information about the proper use of vehicle safety features to all occupants of the vehicle.
ALWAYS review this Owner’s Manual for important safety information.
WHEN READING THE MANUAL
For descriptions specified for all-wheel drive models, an AWD mark is placed at the beginning of the applicable sections/items.
As with other vehicles with features for off-road use, failure to operate all-wheel drive models correctly may result in loss of control or an accident. Be sure to read “Driving safety precautions” in the “Start­ing and driving” section of this manual.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIV­ING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger car because it has a higher center of gravity for off-road use. As with other vehicles with features of this type, fail­ure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or an accident.
For additional information, refer to “On­pavement and off-road driving precautions”, “Avoiding collision and rollover” and “Driving safety precau­tions” in the “Starting and driving” sec­tion of this manual.

SEATS
WARNING
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.
ARS1152
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 properly. For additional information, refer to “Pre­cautions on seat belt usage” in this section.
After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
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 vehicle on a warm day can quickly become high enough to cause a significant risk of injury or death to people and pets.
Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be given to vehicle operation. The seat may move suddenly and could cause loss of con­trol of the vehicle.
The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed 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.
1-2 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure not to contact any moving parts to avoid possible injuries and/or damage.

FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area or on the rear seats when they are in the fold-down position. In a collision, people riding in these areas without proper restraints are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.
Do not fold down the rear seats when occupants are in the rear seat area or any luggage is on the rear seats.
– Make sure that the seat path is clear
before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or feet
to get caught or pinched in the seat.
Head restraints/headrests should be adjusted properly as they may provide significant protection against injury in an accident. Always replace and adjust them properly if they have been re­moved for any reason.
If the head restraints/headrests are re­moved for any reason, they should be securely stored to prevent them from causing injury to passengers or damage to the vehicle in case of sudden braking or an accident.
When returning the seatbacks to the upright position, be certain they are completely secured in the latched posi­tion. If they are not completely secured, passengers may be injured in an acci­dent or sudden stop.
Properly secure all cargo to help pre­vent it from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo could cause personal injury.
LRS2752
Accessing the 3rd row seats (if so equipped)
The 3rd row can be accessed from outside the vehicle by using the seatback release lever lo­cated on the 2nd row seatback. To access the 3rd row from outside the vehicle:
1. Lower or remove the 2nd row head restraints/headrests and store them prop­erly so they are not loose in the vehicle. For additional information about head restraint/headrest removal and adjustment, refer to “Head restraints/headrests” in this section.
