inflating airbag might force that
object toward a person. This
could cause severe injury or even
death. Secure objects away from
the area in which an airbag would
inflate. For more information, see
Where Are the Airbags? 078 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0181.
{Warning
Things you put on this seatback
can strike and injure people in a
sudden stop or turn, or in a crash.

before driving.
To fold the seatback: 1. Lower the head restraint all the way. See Head Restraints
0 56.
2. Move the seat as far back as possible. See Seat Adjustment
0 58.
