Seatback - Chevrolet Sail Diesel Owner's Manual

Seatback

Lift the lever, adjust the seatback to an
appropriate position, then release the
lever.
After the adjustment, lean back against
the backrest to make sure that the
seatback has been locked in an
appropriate position.
Do not lean against the seatback when
making adjustments.
You can lose control of the vehicle if
you try to adjust a driver seat while
the vehicle is moving.
Adjust the driver seat only when the
vehicle is not moving.
HEX0003-1
If either 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 seatbacks to be sure
they are locked.
Things you put on this seatback can
strike and injure people in a sudden
stop or turn, or in a crash. Remove or
secure all items before driving.

Warning
Sitting in a reclined position when
the vehicle is in motion can be
dangerous. Even when buckled up,
the safety belts cannot do their job.
The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. Instead, it will be in front
of you. In a crash, you could go into
it, receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be
there, not at your pelvic bones. This
could cause serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the
vehicle is in motion, have the
seatback upright. Then sit well back
in the seat and wear the safety belt
properly.
