event of a collision or a sudden stop, both
the driver and passenger seatbacks should
always be in an upright position while the

vided by the seat belts and airbags in a
frontal collision may be reduced signifi-
cantly when the seatbacks are reclined.

which may result in serious injury if a crash
occurs when the seatbacks are reclined.
