passenger
Riding in a vehicle with a front
seatback reclined could lead to
serious or fatal injury in an acci-
dent. If a front seat is reclined
during an accident, the occu-
pant’s hips may slide under the
lap portion of the seat belt
applying great force to the
unprotected abdomen. Serious or fatal internal injuries
could result. The driver must
advise the front passenger to
keep the seatback in an upright
position whenever the vehicle isin motion.

WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that reduces friction between the
seat and passenger. The passen-
ger's hips may slide under the
lap portion of the seat belt dur-
ing an accident or a sudden
stop. Serious or fatal internalinjuries could result because the
seat belt can't operate normally.
WARNING - Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust seat whilst the vehicle is moving. This could result in loss of
control, and an accident caus-
ing death, serious injury, or
property damage.
Do not allow anything to inter- fere with the normal position of
the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any
other way interfering with prop-
er locking of a seatback could
result in serious or fatal injury
in a sudden stop or collision.

In order to avoid unnecessary and perhaps severe air bag
injuries, always sit as far back
as possible from the steeringwheel whilst maintaining
comfortable control of the
vehicle. It is recommended
that your chest is at least 250

heavy, or must be piled, they
must be secured. Under no
