the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and receive
neck or other serious injuries. You
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious internal injuries.cFor the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the
seat and adjust the seat properly. See
“Precautions on Seat Belt Usage” later
in this section.

driving so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation. The seat may move
suddenly and could cause loss of con-
trol of the vehicle.
cAfter adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.

WARNING
cDo not use a child restraint in the driv-
er’s side jump seat. This seating posi-
tion is not suitable for child restraint
installation. A child restraint can be in-
stalled in the passenger’s side jump
seat when the seat extension is un-
folded from the seat base.
cWhen folding the jump seat, be careful
not to squeeze your finger between the
seat cushion and the body side.

push and hold the lock knob and push the head
restraint down.

able.

erly as they may provide significant pro-
tection against injury in an accident. Do
not remove them. Check the adjustment
after someone else uses the seat.Adjust the head restraint so the center is level
with the center of your ears.
