Safety Warnings and Symbols

There are a number of safety cautions in this

book. A box with the word CAUTION is used to

tell about things that could hurt you or others if you

were to ignore the warning.

{CAUTION:

These mean there is something that could

hurt you or other people.

We tell you what the hazard is and what to do to

help avoid or reduce the hazard. Please read

these cautions. If you do not, you or others could

be hurt.

A circle with a slash

through it is a safety

symbol which means

“Do Not,” “Do Not

do this” or “Do Not let

this happen.”

Vehicle Damage Warnings

You will also ﬁnd notices in this manual.

Notice: These mean there is something that

could damage your vehicle.

A notice tells about something that can damage

the vehicle. Many times, this damage would not be

covered by your vehicle’s warranty, and it could

be costly. The notice tells what to do to help avoid

the damage.

When you read other manuals, you might see

CAUTION and NOTICE warnings in different colors

or in different words.

There are also warning labels on the vehicle

which use the same words, CAUTION or NOTICE.

Reclining Seatbacks

Manual Reclining Seatbacks

{CAUTION:

You can lose control of the vehicle if you

try to adjust a manual driver’s seat while

the vehicle is moving. The sudden

movement could startle and confuse you,

or make you push a pedal when you do

not want to. Adjust the driver’s seat only

when the vehicle is not moving.

{CAUTION:

If the seatback is not locked, it could

move forward in a sudden stop or crash.

That could cause injury to the person

sitting there. Always push and pull on the

seatback to be sure it is locked.

In vehicles with seats that have manual reclining

seatbacks, the lever used to operate them is

located on the outboard side of the seat.

To recline the seatback, do the following:

1. Lift the recline lever.

2. Move the seatback to the desired position,

then release the lever to lock the seatback

in place.

3. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it

is locked.

To return the seatback to an upright position, do

the following:

1. Lift the lever fully without applying pressure to

the seatback and the seatback will return to

the upright position.

2. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it

is locked.

15

Power Reclining Seatbacks

In vehicles with seats that have power reclining

seatbacks, the control used to recline them

is located on the outboard side of the seat behind

the power seat control. See Power Seats on

page 10 for more information.

• To recline the seatback, tilt the top of the

control rearward.

• To bring the seatback forward, tilt the top of

the control forward.

{CAUTION:

Sitting in a reclined position when your

vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.

Even if you buckle up, your safety belts

cannot do their job when you are reclined

like this.

The shoulder belt cannot do its job

because it will not be against your body.

Instead, it will be in front of you. In a crash,

you could go into it, receiving neck or other

injuries.

The lap belt cannot do its job either. In a

crash, the belt could go up over your

abdomen. The belt forces would be there,

not at your pelvic bones. This could cause

serious internal injuries.

For proper protection when the vehicle is

in motion, have the seatback upright. Then

sit well back in the seat and wear your

safety belt properly.

16

Do not have a seatback reclined if your vehicle is

moving.

Head Restraints

Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the

restraint is at the same height as the top of

the occupant’s head. This position reduces the

chance of a neck injury in a crash.

Pull the head restraint

up to raise it. To lower

the head restraint,

press the release

button, located on the

headrest post on the top

of the seatback, while

you push the head

restraint down.

stop or crash. Be sure to return the seat

to the passenger seating position. Push

and pull on the seat to make sure it is

locked into place.

Notice: Folding a rear seat with the safety

belts still fastened may cause damage to the

seat or the safety belts. Always unbuckle

the safety belts and return them to their normal

18

cushion will automatically fold, and the entire

seat will slide forward.

Returning the Seat to the Seating

the seat.

2. Make sure the armrest is in the upright

position, and the safety belt is unfastened.

3. Pull forward on the reclining seatback

strap (B) and push down on the seatback.

4. If the headrest hits the front seat, slide the

second row seat rearward.

To return the seatback to the seating position, lift

the upper corner of the seatback and push it

rearward until it locks into place. Push and pull on

the seatback to make sure it is locked.
