Seatback Latches
To fold the seatback
forward, push the lever on
the side of the seatback
rearward and pull the
seatback forward.
To return the seatback to the upright position, push it all
the way back until the latch catches. If the seatback
was reclined before being folded forward, it will return to
the reclined position.
{
CAUTION:
If the seatback is not locked, it could move
forward in a sudden stop or crash. That
could cause injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the seatback to be
sure it is locked.
Safety Belts
Safety Belts: They Are for Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety
belts properly. It also tells you some things you should
not do with safety belts.
{
CAUTION:
Do not let anyone ride where he or she can not
wear a safety belt properly. If you are in a
crash and you are not wearing a safety belt,
your injuries can be much worse. You can hit
things inside the vehicle or be ejected from it.
You can be seriously injured or killed. In the
same crash, you might not be if you are
buckled up. Always fasten your safety belt,
and check that your passenger’s belt is
fastened properly too.
