SB070C1-E Front Seat Recline Adjustment
HTB026-D
The front seat back recline angle may be adjusted by leaning forward slightly and raising the recline adjustment leverat the side of the seat. When the seatback is at the desired angle, the lever should be released. Ensure thatthe seatback is locked before driving the vehicle.
!WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a sudden stop, both the driver and passenger seatbacks should always be in anupright position while the vehicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts and airbags in afrontal collision may be reduced sig- nificantly when the seatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk thatthe driver and passenger will slide under the seat belt which may result in serious injury if a crash occurswhen the seatbacks are reclined. The seat belt cannot provide full protec- tion to an occupant if the seatback isreclined.

o For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident the head restraint should be adjusted so the middleof the head restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant's eyes. For this reason, the use of acushion that holds the body away from the seatback should not be recommended.
o Do not operate vehicle with the
head restraints removed as injury to the occupants may occur in the event of an accident. Head re- straints may provide protectionagainst neck injuries when prop- erly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the head restraint height whilst the vehicle is inmotion.B083D01NF-EAT Active Head Restraints (If Installed) The active headrest is designed to move forward and upward during a rear impact.

than the top of the front seatbacks.This could allow cargo to slide forward and cause injury or dam- age during sudden stops.
