or pulsation noise. This noise is a nor-
mal occurrence and can be reduced or
eliminated by taking the following ac-
tions. If the noise occurs with one or
both of the rear windows down,
partially lower both front windows ap-
proximately one inch. If you experience
the noise with the sunroof open, slightly
reduce the size of the sunroof opening.

B080C02A-AATAdjusting Seatback AngleTo recline the seatback, lean forward to
take your weight off it, then pull up on the
recliner control lever at the outside edge
of the seat. Now lean back until the de-
sired seatback angle is achieved. To lock
the seatback into position, release the
recliner control lever.
!
WARNING:
Riding with a reclined seatback in-
creases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or
sudden stop. The protection of your
restraint system (seat belts and airbags)
is greatly reduced by reclining your seat.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. The
more the seatback is reclined, the greater
the chance that an occupant's hips will
slide under the lap belt or the occupant's
neck will strike the shoulder belt. Driv-
ers and passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, properly belted,
and with the seatbacks upright.
OMC029027
C010104AMCHeadrestThe driver's and front passenger's seats
are equipped with a headrest for the
occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort
for the driver and front passenger, but
also helps to protect the head and neck
in the event of a collision.

WARNING:
Make sure the headrest locks in position
after adjusting it to properly protects the
occupants.
!
WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should
be adjusted so the middle of the
headrest is at the same height as the
center of gravity of an occupant's
head. Generally, the center of grav-
ity of most people's head is similar
with the height of the top of their
eyes. Also, adjust the headrest as
close to your head as possible. For
this reason, the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommended.
o Do not operate the vehicle with the
headrests removed as severe injury
to the occupants may occur in the
event of an accident. Headrests may
provide protection against neck inju-
ries when properly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the headrest position
of the driver's seat while the vehicle
is in motion.

B110A02MC-AATFolding Rear SeatbacksThe rear seatbacks may be folded to
facilitate carrying long items or to increase
the luggage capacity of the vehicle.
WARNING:
The purpose of the fold-down rear
seatbacks is to allow you to carry longer
objects than could otherwise be accom-
modated.
Never allow passengers to sit on top of
the folded down seatback or cargo area
while the car is moving as this is not a
proper seating position and no seat belts
are available for use. This could result in
serious injury or death in case of an
accident or sudden stop. Objects car-
ried on the folded down seatback should
not extend higher than the top of the front
seats. This could allow cargo to slide
forward and cause injury or damage
during sudden stops.
