CAUTION
Do not place anything under the
front seats. Loose objects might
interfere with the seat slide
mechanism or possibly roll out
from under the seat and interfere
with the operation of the brake,
clutch or accelerator foot pedals.
WARNING - Passengers
To reduce the risk of sliding
under the lap portion of the
lap/shoulder belt, and potentially
suffering serious personal injury
or death in the event of a
collision, do not use the front
seatback in a reclined position
while the vehicle is in motion. If a
seat is reclined, the occupant’s
hip could slide under or out of
the lap portion of the
lap/shoulder belt during a
collision. If that occurs, the
occupant may no longer be
properly restrained, and the
safety belt could apply restraint
forces to the unprotected
abdomen resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
Therefore, keep the seatbacks in
a comfortably upright position
whenever the vehicle is in
motion.
