lDo not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion
to reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt. If the seat is too reclined,
the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces directly to the
abdomen or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
l After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
n After returning the seatback to the upright position
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
l Make sure that the seatback is securely locked in position by lightly rock-
ing it back and forth.
l Check that the seat belts and buckles are not twisted or caught under the
seat.
l Arrange the seat belts in the proper positions for ready use.
