abdomen or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
●After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
■After returning the seatback to the upright position
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Make sure that the seatback is securely locked in position by lightly rock-
ing it back and forth.

seat.
●Arrange the seat belts in the proper positions for ready use.
