LEVER
Pull down the lever, then adjust the

lease the lever.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the seat while the
D
vehicle is moving.
Be careful that the seat does not
D
hit a passenger or luggage.
To reduce the risk of sliding under
D
the lap belt during
avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts
provide maximum protection in a
frontal or rear collision when the
passengers 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 great-
er the risk of personal injury.
After adjusting the seatback, push
D
your body back against the seat to
make sure the seat is locked in
position.
