concealed under the folded seat and cannot be used.
●

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.

Make sure that the seatback is securely
locked in position by lightly rocking it
back and forth.

seatback lock release knob. Make sure
that the red marking is not visible.
