SSS0133
WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined.
This can be dangerous. The
shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious inju-
ries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-20).
. After adjustment, gently rock in
the seat to make sure it is se-
curely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could
unknowingly activate switches
or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents. .
To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended opera-
tion of the vehicle and/or its
systems, do not leave children,
people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature in-
side a closed vehicle on a warm
day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk
of injury or death to people and
pets.
. The seatback should not be re-
clined any more than needed for
comfort. Seat belts are most ef-
fective when the passenger sits
well back and straight up in the
seat. If the seatback is reclined,
the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and being injured is in-
creased.

WARNING
.Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seats
when they are in the fold-down
position. In a collision, people
riding in these areas without
proper restraints are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed.
. Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat
belts. Be sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and using a
seat belt properly.
. Do not fold down the rear seats
when occupants are in the rear
seat area or any cargo is on the
rear seats.
. Head restraints should be ad-
justed properly as they may pro-
vide significant protection
against injury in an accident. Al-
ways replace and adjust them
properly if they have been re-
moved for any reason.
. If the head restraints are re-
moved for any reason, they
should be securely stored to pre- vent them from causing injury to
passengers or damage to the
vehicle in case of sudden braking
or an accident.
. When returning the seatbacks to
the upright position, be certain
they are completely secured in
the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
. Properly secure all cargo to help
prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.
. When folding the bench seat
seatback down for maximum sto-
rage, make sure the seat base is
in the latched position by rocking
the seat base. If the seat base is
not properly secured, cargo
stored on top of a folded seat-
back may become a projectile
causing personal injury or vehicle
damage.
