1-7. Safety information
CAUTION
When driving:
■
Do not adjust the position of the driver' s seat while driving.
●
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seat back.
●
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved and reduce the
effect of the seat belt and head restraint, increasing the risk of injury to the driver
or passenger.
Do not place anything under the front seats.
●
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and
stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident. The adjustment
mechanism may also be damaged.
Adjusting the seat position:
■
Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion, to
●
reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt.
If the seat is too reclined during an accident, the lap belt may slide past the hips
and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury.
Take care when adjusting the seat position, to ensure that other passengers are
●
not injured by the moving seat.
Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts, to avoid injury to
●
hands or fingers.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
