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 maxi-
mum protection in a frontal or rear
collision when the driver and the pas-
senger 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 formal collision, the
risk of personal injury may increase
with increasing recline of the seat-
back.
CAUTION
Any operations should not be made
while the vehicle is moving.
When adjusting the seat, be careful
not to hit the seat against a pas-
senger or luggage.
Third seats only: Adjust both seats
to the same position and seatbacks
to the same angle when a person
sits on the third seat center posi-
tion. Otherwise, the person can not
wear seat belt properly and this
may cause serious injuries in a col-
lision.
After adjusting the seat position,
try sliding it forward and backward
to make sure it is lock in position.
After adjusting the seatback, exert
body pressure to make sure it is
locked in position.
When returning seats to their origi-
nal position:
Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught under the seat
and are arranged in their proper
position and are ready to use.
Make sure the seat is securely
locked by pushing forward and rear-
ward on the top of the seatback
and by trying to pull up the edge
of the bottom cushion. Failure to
do so will prevent seat belt from
operating properly.
Folding the seats up will enlarge the lug-
gage compartment. See “Luggage stowage
precautions” in Section 2 for precautions
in loading luggage.
