CAUTION
!
● Do not place heavy objects on the seat or stick pins,
needles, or other pointed objects into the seat.
● Do not place a blanket, cushion, or other insulating
material on the seat while using the heater; doing so
can cause the heater element to overheat.
● When cleaning the seat, do not use benzine, kero-
sene, gasoline, alcohol, or other organic solvents;
doing so can cause damage not only to the surface of
the seat, but also to the heater.
● If water or any other liquid is spilled on the seat,
allow it to dry thoroughly before attempting to use
the heater. Turn the heater off immediately if it
appears to be malfunctioning during use.
WARNING
!
● Never adjust the seats to make a cargo area when
the vehicle is in motion or on a slope. The seats could
move more than necessary or move suddenly caus-
ing a serious accident and/or injury.
● After folding down a seat or returning a seat back to
its original position, make sure the seat is firmly
secured. Also check to make sure that the seat belts
are in front of the seatbacks, and not caught behind
the seatbacks. If the seat is not secured, it could
move causing a serious accident and/or injury.
● Do not allow anyone to ride in the cargo area while
the vehicle is in motion. People who are not properly
seated and restrained can be seriously injured or
killed in an accident.
● The cargo area in the rear of the vehicle should
never be used as a play area by children. All chil-
dren should be properly restrained in a restraint
device that offers the maximum protection for their
size and age. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on
page 2-24.
