CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt
during a collision, avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts provide maximum
protection in a frontal or rear collision when the the
driver and the passenger are sitting up straight and
well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap belt
may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen. Therefore, in the event of
a frontal collision, the risk of personal injury may
increase with increasing recline of the seatback.
