Sitting safely Seats
If the middle safety belt in the rear is
used, the wider seatback must be
locked, refer to page
126 , as otherwise
the safety belt has no restraining action.
Fasten safety belt, refer to page 49 .
Note before adjusting
Never try to adjust your seat while
operating the vehicle. The seat
could respond with unexpected move-
ment, and the ensuing loss of vehicle
control could lead to an accident. On
the front passenger side as well, do not
tilt the backrest too far toward the rear
while driving. Failure to observe this
precaution can prevent the belt from
providing effective protection against
injury, as the passenger could slide
under the belt in an accident.

Also observe the information on the
safety belts on page
