Reclining Seatbacks
Platinum Seat Shown
To adjust:
.
Tilt the top of the control
rearward to recline.
.
Tilt the top of the control forward
to raise the seatback. { WarningSitting in a reclined position when
the vehicle is in motion can be
dangerous. Even when buckled
up, the safety belts cannot do
their job.
The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. Instead, it will
be in front of you. In a crash, you
could go into it, receiving neck or
other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over
your abdomen. The belt forces
would be there, not at your pelvic
bones. This could cause serious
internal injuries.
For proper protection when the
vehicle is in motion, have the
seatback upright. Then sit well
back in the seat and wear the
safety belt properly. Do not have a seatback reclined if
the vehicle is moving.
