Seats
Before adjusting, note
Do not reposition the driver's seat while
the car is in motion. The seat could move
unexpectedly, leading to the driver losing con-
trol of the car, so that an accident could be
caused.
Do not recline the driver's or front passenger's
seat back too far, otherwise there will be a risk
of sliding under the seat belt in an accident, so
that the belt loses its protective effect.<

height on page 37, and on damaged seat belts
on page 41.
