WARNING

  When returning a seatback to its 
upright position, make sure the 3-point 
seat belt is not caught in the seatback 
and the 3-point seat belt is not twisted.

  If the seat belt is used while it is twisted 
and caught in the seatback, the seat 
belt cannot function at its full capacity, 
which could cause serious injury or 
death.
  

  When returning a seatback to its 
upright position, make sure that it is 
fi rmly locked and the red indication is 
not visible (5–Door).

  If the red indication is visible behind 
the push knob, it means the seatback 
is not locked. If the vehicle is driven 
without the seatback locked, it could 
fold down suddenly and cause an 
accident.
