WARNING
12)All adjustments must be made with the
vehicle stationary.
13)Once you have released the
adjustment lever, always check that the
seat is locked on the guides by trying
to move it back and forth. If it is not locked,
the seat may move unexpectedly and
make you lose control of the vehicle.
14)When the passenger seat is folded
away, the space created cannot be used
for loading. When the vehicle is in motion,
you are therefore advised to remove or
secure any objects that might interfere with
the driver. If there is no partition between
the cab and the load compartment, tall
objects or packages may take up part of
the passenger area. Make sure that these
items are well secured by using the
available hooks and that they cannot
interfere with the driver.15)If there is no partition between the cab
