To minimize risk of personal injury in the event of a collision or a suddenstop, both the driver and passenger seatbacks should always be in an upright position while the vehicle isin motion. The protection provided by the seat belts and airbags may be reduced significantly when theseatbacks are reclined. There is greater risk that the driver and pas- senger will slide under the belt re- sulting in serious injury if a crash occurs when the seatbacks are re-clined. The seat belt cannot provide full protection to an occupant if the seat back is reclined. B260A01P-GAT Lumbar Support Control (Driver's Seat Only) (If installed)
