CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, avoid
reclining the seatback any more than
needed. The seat belts provide maxi-
mum protection in a frontal or rear
collision when the driver and the pas-
senger are sitting up straight and
well back in the seats. If you are
reclined, the lap belt may slide past
your hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen. In the event
of a frontal collision, the more the
seat is reclined, the greater the risk
of personal injury.
1. Lower the head restraint to the low-
est position and fix the seatback at
the most upright lock position.
2. Pull up either seatback lock release
knob beside the seatback and fold
the seatback down.
CAUTION
Do not sit on or place anything on
the folded seatback to avoid serious
injury while the vehicle is moving.
