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.

Objects  placed  under  the  front  seats  may  become  jammed  in  the  s eat
tracks  and  stop  the  seat  from  locking  in  place.  This  may  lead  t o  an  acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
● Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.

■ Seat adjustment
● To  reduce  the  risk  of  sliding  under  the  lap  belt  during  a  collision,  do  not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If  the  seat  is  too  reclined,  the  lap  belt  may  slide  past  the  hi ps  and  apply
restraint  forces  directly  to  the  abdomen,  or  your  neck  may  cont act  the
shoulder belt, increasing  the risk  of death  or  serious  injury in the  event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may un expect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Manual seat type only: After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is
locked in position.
■ When adjusting the seat positions
Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not  get stuck.
