Armrest
The armrest is located in the center
of the rear seat. Pull the armrest
down from the seatback.
Headrest
The rear seat(s) is equipped with
headrests in all the seating positions
for the occupant's safety and com-
fort.
The headrest not only provides com-
fort for passengers, but also helps
protect the head and neck in the
event of a collision.
WARNING - Cargo
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from being
thrown about the vehicle in a
collision and causing injury to
the vehicle occupants. Special
care should be taken of objects
placed in the rear seats, since
those may hit the front seat
occupants in a frontal collision.
CAUTION - Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
transaxle is in P and the parking
brake is applied whenever load-
ing or unloading cargo. Failure
to take these steps may allow
the vehicle to move if shift lever
is inadvertently moved to anoth-
er position.
