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.
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-7

1. Lift the front of the seat cushion up.
2. Fold the bottom of the seat cushion toward the back of the vehicle until it locks in place.
1-8 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
3. Repeat this process to raise and secure the seat cushion on the other side of the vehicle for maximum storage capacity.
To return the rear bench seat to a seating posi­tion, pull the latch on the bottom of the seat cushions to release the seat from the locked position. Make sure to properly push the
seat cushion down into place.
WARNING
When the vehicle is being used to carry cargo, 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.
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. Never ride in the rear seat unless the seat bottom cushions are in place.
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.
