Black plate (22,1)
Never allow a passenger to sit or stand
on the folded seatback while the
vehicle is moving:
Driving with a passenger on the
folded seatback is dangerous.
Allowing a child to sit up on the
folded seatback while the vehicle is
moving is particularly dangerous. In
a su dden stop or even a minor
collision, a child not in a proper seat
or child-restraint system and seat
belt could be thrown forward, back
or even out of the vehicle resulting in
serious injuries or death. The child in
the baggage area could be thrown
into other occupants and cause
serious injury.
NOTE
When returning a rear seat to its original
position, also replace the seat belt to its
normal position. Verify that the seat belt pulls
out and retracts.
qSplit-Folding Rear Seatback
The seatbacks can be folded down to
provide more space in the luggage
compartment.
To fold down the seatbacks
WARNING
Always remove the child-restraint
system from the rear seat before
operating the remote handle levers for
the rear seat:
Operating (pulling) the remote
handle levers while a rear-facing
child-restraint system is in the rear
seat is dangerous. It could cause
injury to a child seated in the child-
restraint system when the seatback
suddenly flips forward.
Make sure there is nobody in the rear
seat area before operating (pulling) the
remote handle levers:
Not checking the rear seat area for
persons before folding the seatbacks
down with the remote handle levers
is dangerous. The rear seat area is
difficult to see from the rear of the
vehicle. Operating (pulling) the
remote handle levers without
checking could cause injury to a
person when a seatback suddenly
flips forward.
CAUTION
Before folding the seatbacks down
with the remote handle levers, make
sure there is no cup in a rear cup
holder. Folding the seatbacks with
the remote handle levers while a cup
is in the cup holder could soil or
damage the seat bottom and
seatback.
