may move unexpectedly and make you lose control of
the car.

seat upright, lean back into it and make sure the
seat belt fits closely across your chest and hips.

key turned to MAR-ON and for approximately 1 minute after turn-
ing it to STOP. The seat (driver's side or passenger's side) can be
moved after opening the relevant door for about 3 minutes, or as
long as the door is re-closed.

in the opposite direction, it is necessary to cover the areas of the
beam according to the provisions of the Highway Code of the coun-
try you are driving in.
