!WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a sudden stop, both the driver and passen-ger seatbacks should always be in an upright position while the ve- hicle is in motion. The protectionprovided by the seat belts and airbags in a frontal collision may be reduced significantly when the seatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk that the driver and pas-senger will slide under the seat belt which may result in serious injury if a crash occurs when the seatbacksare reclined. The seat belt cannot provide full protection to an occu- pant if the seat back is reclined.
To recline the seatback, lean forward to take your weight off it, then pull up on the recliner control lever at theoutside edge of the seat. Now lean back until the desired seatback angle B080C01E

!WARNING:
o The purpose of the fold-down rear seat back and the fold-up rear seat cushion is to allow you tocarry more objects than could be accommodated. Do not allow pas- sengers to sit on the cargo areawhile the car is moving. This is not a proper seating position and no seat belts are available for usewhen the seat back is folded down. This could result in serious in- jury or death in case of an acci-dent or a sudden stop. Objects should not extend higher than the top of the front seatbacks.This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or dam- age during sudden stops.
o WARNING LABEL: When return- ing the seat cushion to the seat-
ing position, place the seat belt
buckles on top of the cushion.
o When you return the folded down
seat back to its upright position,be sure to place the rear seat belt buckles on the seat bight between the seat cushion and seatback.
CAUTION:
After folding the rear seatback and seat cushion, the headrest can be stored in the trunk so that it will notbe thrown forward in the case of a sudden stop or an accident.
