When a person is sitting in the second seat, raise the head restraints to height at which it lock in position. Refer to “Head restraints”.

To adjust forward or backward
Pull the seat adjustment lever and lightly push the seat forward or backward to the desired position. Release the adjustment lever. The seat will lock in place.

WARNING:
● To reduce the risk of serious or life-threatening injuries in an accident or sudden stop, make sure that not only the driver’s seat seatback but also all the other seatbacks are in an upright position while driving.
● When a person is sitting in the middle seating position of the second seat, the two sides of the second seat must have the same forward/backward position and the same seatback angle. Otherwise, the seat belt for the middle seating position may not be adequately effective in the event of hard braking or a collision.
CAUTION:
● A spring is loaded in the reclining mechanism of the seatback, so when operating the lock lever sit in a position close to the seatback or support the seatback with your hand.
