WARNING
Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver’s foot
area could interfere with the
operation of the foot pedals,
possibly causing an accident. Do
not place anything under the front
seats.
WARNING
Uprighting seat
When you return the seatback to its
upright position, hold the seatback
and return it slowly and be sure
there are no other occupants around
the seat. If the seatback is returned
without being held and controlled,
the back of the seat could spring
forward resulting in accidental injury
to a person struck by the seatback.
WARNING
Driver responsibility for passengers
Riding in a vehicle with the seatback
reclined could lead to serious or
fatal injury in an accident. If a seat
is reclined during an accident, the
occupant’s hips may slide under the
lap portion of the seat belt, applying
great force to the unprotected
abdomen. Serious or fatal internal
injuries could result. The driver
must advise the passenger to keep
the seatback in an upright position
whenever the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that
reduces friction between the seat
and passenger. The passenger’s hips
may slide under the lap portion of
the seat belt during an accident or a
sudden stop. Serious or fatal internal
injuries could result because the seat
belt can’t operate normally.
WARNING
Driver’s seat
• Never attempt to adjust the seat
while the vehicle is moving. This
could result in loss of control, and
an accident causing death, serious
injury, or property damage.
• Do not allow anything to interfere
with the normal position of the
seatback. Storing items against
a seatback or in any other way
interfering with proper locking of
a seatback could result in serious
