Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.●
Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. ●

A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the effec-
tiveness of the seat be lt and head restraint.●

Objects placed under the front seats may be come jammed in the seat tracks and stop
the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident and the adjustment mech-
anism may also be damaged. ●
