To avoid the possibility of serious injury or death, passengers
must never be allowed to sit on the rear center console while the
vehicle is in motion. The rear seat of this vehicle is designed forno more than two passengers and is equipped with only two seat-belts. Make sure that the rear seatback is securely locked. When it is
securely locked, the red marking on the lock is no longer visible.If it is not locked, the seatback may move forward when the ve-hicle is operated. Secure skis and other lengthy items properly to prevent them
from being thrown around inside the vehicle and causing serious
injury during a sudden stop, a sudden steering or a rapid accel-eration.
