Caution

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.

Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.

A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
Do not place anything under the front seats.

Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.

Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to continue driving and take a break immediately.
