CAUTION
Do not put your hand into the rear
seatback lock opening, or your finger
may get caught and be injured.
CAUTION
After securing the rear seatback,
check that it is locked securely. If it is
not, red will appear in the release
lever.
NOTICE
• When returning the rear seatback
to the normal position, do not allow
any foreign material to enter the
lock opening. This may prevent the
seatback from being locked
securely.
• When returning the rear seatback
to the normal position, handle it
carefully by hand to avoid any dam-
age to the lock itself. Do not push it
by using some material or by
applying excessive force.
• As the lock is designed exclusively
for securing the rear seatback, do
not use it for any other purpose.
Incorrect use of it may cause dam-
age to the inside of the lock and
prevent the seatback from being
locked securely.
WARNING
Wear your seat belts at all times.
WARNING
An airbag supplements or adds to the
frontal collision protection offered by
seat belts. The driver and all passen-
gers must be properly restrained by
wearing seat belts at all times,
whether or not an airbag is mounted
at their seating position, to minimize
the risk of severe injury or death in
the event of a collision.
WARNING
Do not modify, remove, disassemble
seat belts. Doing so may prevent
them from functioning properly and
cause the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a collision.
