Seatback angle
To recline the seatback:
1. Push the control switch forward orrearward.
2. Release the switch once the seat- back reaches the desired position.
Information
The seatback angle adjustment may
be restricted, when the seatback is
reclined to some point. At this time,
release the seatback angle switch and
then re-push the switch rearward. The
front seat will slide forward and the
seatback angle will recline even more. Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be danger-
ous. Even when buckled up, the pro-
tections of your restraint system
(seat belts and air bags) is greatly
reduced by reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt cannot do its job
because it will not be snug against
your chest. Instead, it will be in front
of you. During an accident, you could
be thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined,
the greater chance the passenger’s
hips will slide under the lap belt or
the passenger’s neck will strike the
shoulder belt.
i
OHI036004
NEVER ride with a reclined
seatback when the vehicle is
moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries in the event
of a collision or sudden stop.
Driver and passengers should
ALWAYS sit well back in their
seats, properly belted, and with
the seatbacks upright.
