3-3. Adjusting the seats

WARNING

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

serious injury.

■ When folding the rear seatbacks down

● Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.

● Stop the vehicle on level ground, set the parking brake and shift the shift

lever to P (Multidrive) or N (manual transmission).

● Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the luggage compart-

ment while driving.

● Do not allow children to enter the luggage compartment.

● Do not allow anyone to sit on the rear center seat if the rear right seat is

folded down, as the seat belt buckle for the rear center seat belt is then

concealed under the folded seat and cannot be used.

● Be careful not to get your hand caught when folding the rear seatbacks.

● Adjust the position of the front seats before folding down the rear

seatbacks so that the front seats do not interfere with the rear seatbacks

when folding down the rear seatbacks.

■ After returning the rear seatback to the upright position

● Make sure that the seatback is securely

locked in position by lightly pushing it

back and forth.

If the seatback is not securely locked,

the red marking will be visible on the

seatback lock release lever. Make sure

that the red marking is not visible.

● Check that the seat belts are not twisted

or caught in the seatback.

If the seat belt gets caught between the

seatback's securing hook and latch, it

may damage the seat belt.
