WARNING

  • Adjust the seat and ensure it locks into position before driving. Use caution when adjusting the seat. Uncontrolled or careless adjustments could lead to injury.
  • Long objects must always be securely tied down to help prevent injury or damage in the event of sudden braking.
  • Always turn off the engine and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading the vehicle.
  • Put the gear selector in P to help prevent the gear selector from being inadvertently moved.

CAUTION

When the backrest is folded down, make sure there are no objects in the rear seat, and the seat belts are not buckled. Otherwise there is a risk of damage to the upholstery.

The rear seats may also need to be moved rearward.

The seats in the second row must be in the upright position before they can be folded down completely. They should not be folded down when they are tilted forward to access the third row of seats.
