- Be carefu l when adjusting the seat height .
Check to see that no one is in the way, or se

m Jur y.
- To red uce the r isk of injury in the case of

the airbag system on ly offer maximum pro

safety belts are properly positioned on the
body. The more the backrest is reclined, the
greater the risk of personal injury from an
incorrect seating position and improper ly
