KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
3-16
CAUTION:
Do not place anything under the front
seats. Loose objects might interfere
with the seat slide mechanism or
possibly roll out from under the seat
and interfere with the operation of the
brake, clutch or accelerator foot
pedals. It could result in serious
accident.
Adjusting the Front Seatback
Recliner
To recline the seatback;
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up on
the seatback recline lever located on
the outside of the seat, toward the
rear.
2. Lean back on the seat and adjust the
back of the seat to the position you
desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the
seatback is located in place. (The
lever MUST return to its orginal
position for the seatback to lock.)
WARNING - PASSENGERS
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap portion of the lap/shoulder
belt, and potentially suffering
serious personal injury or death in
the event of a collision, do not use
the front seatback in a reclined
position while the vehicle is in
motion. If a seat is reclined, the
occupant’s hip could slide under
or out of the lap portion of the
lap/shoulder belt during a
collision. If that occurs, the
occupant may no longer be
properly restrained, and the safety
belt could apply restraint forces to
the unprotected abdomen
resulting in serious personal
injury or death.
Therefore, keep the seatbacks in a
comfortably upright position
whenever the vehicle is in motion.
