While the vehicle is moving, all passengers must occupy their seats and be fastened with seat belts.

Warning: Do not drive the vehicle until all passengers are seated. Do not allow passengers to sit on the folded rear seat, on the cargo floor, or on luggage. An improperly seated passenger without a seat belt may be seriously injured in the event of sudden braking or an accident.


When the vehicle is moving, do not allow passengers to get up and change places while the vehicle is moving - they may be seriously injured in the event of emergency braking or an accident.


The front seats allow for a wide range of adjustments - you can adjust the longitudinal position of the seat, the height of the cushion, the tilt of the backrest, the height and tilt of the headrests. The adjustment of the driver's seat is especially important. The pedals, steering wheel, and instrument panel should be easily accessible and located in the places where the driver is used to seeing them.

Driver's seat



Adjust the seat as follows:
  • Move the seat forward or backward so that you can easily press any pedal with a slightly bent leg.
  • Adjust the seat back so that you can reach the top of the steering wheel with a slightly bent arm.

Warning: There should be no foreign objects in the driver's footwell. A foreign object could get under the pedal at any time and block it, which would prevent the driver from making the necessary maneuver or braking the car if necessary.




Passenger seat



Adjust the seat as follows:
  • Adjust the seat back to a vertical position.
  • Move the seat forward or backward to provide comfortable legroom for the passenger.
  • Do not move the seat all the way back, otherwise it will be uncomfortable for the rear passenger.

Do not move the seat all the way back, otherwise it will be uncomfortable for the rear passenger.


1. The pull-out drawer 1 under the seats is used to store small items. A CD player can be inserted under the passenger seat instead of the pull-out drawer.

2. To move the seat forward or backward, lift lever 2. Once the seat has been moved, release the lever and move the seat forward and backward until the seat latch engages in the nearest slot.

3. Lever 3 is only available on 2-door models. It is used to fold the front seat back when passengers pass through to the rear seats. To organize passage to the rear seats, lift lever 3 and fold the back forward. After the passengers pass, fold the back back.

4. The angle of the backrest is adjusted with the handwheel 4. Do not tilt the backrest too far from the vertical, as in this position it is easy to slip out from under the seat belt.

5. To adjust the height of the seat cushion, pump lever 5. To raise the cushion, pump the lever up from the base position, and to lower it, pump it down.


Cautions



Do not adjust the seat, especially the driver's seat, while driving. The seat may suddenly move and the driver will lose control of the vehicle.


When adjusting the longitudinal position of the seat, be careful not to hit the rear passenger or luggage with the seat.


After adjustment, try moving the seat forward and backward to make sure it is securely locked in place.


After adjusting the seat back angle, try pushing the seat back backwards. Make sure it is securely locked.


When adjusting the seat, do not place your hands under the seat or keep them away from moving parts. Otherwise, you may injure your hand or fingers.


It is prohibited to remove and install airbags, make any changes to their wiring or to the wiring of the seat heaters.


Seat headrests



The headrests have two guide rods with slots to fix the headrest height. The rods slide in guide bushings. For your safety, adjust the headrests before driving. The headrests are most effective when your head rests on them.

Cautions



Adjust the headrest so that the center of the headrest is level with the top of your ears.


After adjusting the headrest, make sure that it is securely locked in place.


Do not drive without a headrest.


Adjusting the height of the headrests



Adjusting the height of the headrests


To raise or lower the headrest, grasp it with both hands and pull it up or down.

Removal and installation

The rear head restraint can only be removed if the seat back is tilted forward slightly.

To install the headrest, simply push it into the guides.
