Caution When folding the rear seatbacks down Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

• Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.

Seat adjustment

• To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not recline the seat more than necessary.

If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.

Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpectedly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

Be careful not to get hands or feet pinched between the rear console box and the rear seat when folding down the rear seatback.

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

• Make sure the seatback is securely locked by pushing it forward and rearward on the top.
• Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught in the seatback.

Notice Stowing the seat belts

The seat belts and the buckles must be stowed before you fold down the rear seatbacks.
