Riding in a vehicle with a front seat‐
back reclined could lead to serious or
fatal injury in an accident. If a front
seat is reclined during an accident,
the occupant’s hips may slide under
the lap portion of the seat belt ap‐
plying great force to the unprotec‐
ted abdomen. Serious or fatal inter‐
nal injuries could result.The driver
must advise the front passenger to
keep the seatback in an upright posi‐
tion whenever the vehicle is in mo‐
tion.
WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that re‐
duces 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
n Driver’s seat
• Never attempt to adjust seat while
the vehicle is moving. This could
result in loss of control, and an ac‐
cident causing death, serious in‐
jury, 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 in‐
terfering with proper locking of a
seatback could result in serious or
fatal injury in a sudden stop or col‐
lision.

(Continued)
• Always drive and ride with your
seatback upright and the lap por‐
tion of the seat belt snug and low
across the hips. This is the best
position to protect you in case of
an accident.
• In order to avoid unnecessary and
perhaps severe air bag injuries, al‐
ways sit as far back as possible
from the steering wheel while
maintaining comfortable control of
the vehicle. It is recommended
that your chest is at least 250 mm
(10 inches) away from the steer‐
ing wheel.
WARNING
n Rear seatbacks
• The rear seatback must be secure‐
ly latched. If not, passengers and
objects could be thrown forward
resulting in serious injury or death
in the event of a sudden stop or
collision.
