SeatsWhen adjusting your seat, always
observe the following precautions
Never try to adjust your seat while
operating the vehicle. The seat
could respond with an unexpected
movement, and the ensuing loss of
vehicle control could lead to an acci-
dent. Never ride with the backrest
reclined to an extreme angle. This is
especially important for the front pas-
senger to remember. If you do so, there
is a risk that you will slide under the
safety belt in an accident, thus reducing
the protection provided by the safety
belt.<

The left and right rear seats are both
equipped with a LATCH child-restraint
mounting system.
Remove the cover from the outside
anchorage by pulling forward. When
reinstalling ensure that the recess is on
the top.
With through-loading system: tilt the
backrest halfway forward to make the
cover easier to remove, refer to
page 100.
The illustration is an example showing
the anchorages for a LATCH child-
restraint mounting system at the right
rear seat.
Always follow all manufacturer's
instructions and observe all safety
precautions when installing the LATCH
child-restraint system. Leave the rear
safety belts in the holders, if they are
not needed, to avoid unwanted move-
ment from the safety belts at high
speeds.<
