The third seats have a maximum
capacity of two belted occupants
who do not exceed 150 cm (59 in.)
in height. Exceeding these limits
can result in increased risk of seri-
ous personal injuries or death.
Folding the seats up will enlarge the lug-
gage compartment. See “—Stowage pre-
cautions” on page 295 in Section 2 for
precautions when loading luggage.

SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING LEVER
Lean forward and pull the lock release
lever. Then lean back to the desired
angle and release the lever.
CAUTION
Avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts pro-
vide maximum protection in a frontal
or rear collision when the passengers
are sitting up straight and well back
in the seats. If you are reclined, the
lap belt may slide past your hips and
apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen or your neck may contact
the shoulder belt. In the event of a
frontal collision, the more the seat is
reclined, the greater the risk of death
or personal injury.
