Note:
Prior to operating the vehicle, the driver
should adjust the seat height for proper
vision as well as fore/aft placement and
seat back angle to insure adequate
control, reach, operation, and comfort.
Be certain seat is " locked in" by sliding
front/rear until full enqaqement is as­
sured.
The head restraint should also be adju­
sted for proper height so that when the
cushion is tipped completely forward, it
should form a cradle behind the seat
occupant's head. Both the inside and
outside rear view mirrors should then
be adjusted for adequate rearward vi­
sion. Fasten seat belts. Children under
the age of six or under the weight of
23 kg/50 lb should be seated in the
back seat with an approved restraint
system properly secured.
All seat, head restraint, and rearview
mirror adjustments as well as fastening
of seat belts should be accomplished
before the vehicle is put into motion.
