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.

dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.

WARNING
■When adjusting the seat position
● Take  care  when  adjusting  the  seat  position  to  ensure  that  other  passen-
gers are not injured by the moving seat.
● Do  not  put  your  hands  under  the  seat  or  near  the  moving  parts  to  avoid
injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
● Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not  get stuck.
■ Seat adjustment
● Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
● 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  hips  and  apply
restraint  forces  directly  to  the  abdomen,  or  your  neck  may  contact  the
shoulder belt, increasing  the risk of death  or  serious  injury i n 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  only:  After  adjusting  the  seat,  make  sure  that  the  seat  is
locked in position.
