●Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the trunk while driving.
●Do not allow children to enter the trunk.
●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 catch your hand when folding the rear seatbacks.
●Adjust the position of the front seat before folding down the rear seatbacks so that the front seat does not interfere with the rear seatbacks when folding down the rear seatbacks.

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Make sure that the seatback is securely locked in position by lightly rocking it back and forth.
If the seatback is not securely locked, the red marking will be visible on the seatback lock release knob. Make sure that the red marking is not visible.

●Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught under the seat.
