WARNING
Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver's foot
area could interfere with the opera-
tion of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident. Do not place
anything under the front seats.
WARNING
Uprighting seat
When you return the seatback to
its upright position, hold the seat-
back and return it slowly and be
sure there are no other occupants
around the seat. If the seatback is
returned without being held and
controlled, the back of the seat
could move forward or backward
resulting in accidental injury to a
person struck by the seatback.
WARNING
Driver responsibility for passen-
gers
Riding in a vehicle with seatback
reclined could lead to serious or
fatal injury in an accident. If a seat
is reclined during an accident, the
occupant's hips may slide under
the lap portion of the seat belt ap-
plying great force to the unprotect-
ed abdomen. The protection of
your restraint system (seat belt
and air bags) is greatly reduced by
reclining your seat. Serious or fa-
tal internal injuries could result.
The driver must advise the pas-
senger to keep the seatback in an
upright position whenever the ve-
hicle is in motion.
WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that
reduces friction between the seat
and passenger. The passenger's
hips may slide under the lap por-
tion of the seat belt during an acci-
dent or a sudden stop. Serious or
fatal internal injuries could result
because the seat belt can't operate
normally.
WARNING
Driver's seat
• Never attempt to adjust seat
while the vehicle is moving. This
could result in loss of control,
and an accident causing death,
serious injury, or property dam-
age.
• Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position of
the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any oth-
er way interfering with proper
locking of a seatback could re-
sult in serious or fatal injury in a
sudden stop or collision.
• Always drive and ride with your
seatback upright and the lap
portion of the seat belt snug and
low across the hips. This is the
best position to protect you in
case of an accident.
• In order to avoid unnecessary
and perhaps severe air bag inju-
ries, always sit as far back as
possible from the steering wheel
while maintaining comfortable
control of the vehicle.
