While driving ●
Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.●
Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt and head re straint, increasing the risk of death or
serious injury to the driver or passenger.●

death or serious injury. The adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.■
