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,

abdomen or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of an accident.

serious injury.
