the backrest too far toward the rear. Failure to
observe this precaution can prevent the belt

injury, as the passenger could slide under the
belt in an accident.

structed. If you fail to do so, any persons or
objects behind the seat could be injured or
damaged by a rearward movement of the
seat.<

age to the safety belt on page49.

tor will be damaged.<
