CAUTION
Avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts pro-
vide maximum protection in a frontal
or rear collision when the passengers
are sitting up straight and well back
in the seats. If you are reclined, the
lap belt may slide past your hips and
apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen or your neck may contact
the shoulder belt. In the event of a
frontal collision, the more the seat is
reclined, the greater the risk of death
or personal injury.
For access to the third seat, perform
the following procedure.
Fold down the seatback while pulling the
seatback angle adjusting lever or strap
and swing up the seat.
After passengers are in, return the seat
until it locks securely, and lift up the seat
back by pulling the lever or strap.
CAUTION
After returning the seat, make sure
the seat is securely locked by push-
ing forward and rearward on the top
of the seatback or by trying to pull
up the edge of the bottom cushion.
Failure to do so will prevent seat belt
from operating properly.

expected accident or severe injury
in the event of emergency braking
or a collision.

the second seat is tumbled in order
to prevent personal injury in a colli-
sion or sudden stop.
