!WARNING:
To minimize risk of severe injury in the event of a collision or a sudden stop, both the driver and passen- ger seatbacks should always be inan upright position while the ve- hicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts andairbags in a frontal collision may be reduced significantly when the seatbacks are reclined. There isgreater risk that the driver and pas- senger will slide under the seat belt which may result in serious injury ifa crash occurs when the seatbacks are reclined. The seat belt cannot provide full protection to an occu-pant if the seat back is reclined.
To recline the seatback, lean forward totake your weight off it, then pull up on the recliner control lever at the outside edge of the seat. HFC2025

WARNING:
o When you return the folded down seat back to its upright position, make sure the seat belts are inposition to be accessible and to function properly.
o The purpose of the fold down rear seat back and the fold forward rearseat cushion is to increase cargo space. Do not allow passengers tosit in the cargo area while the car is moving. This is not a proper seating position and no seat beltsare available for use when the seat back is folded down. Passengers who are not properly seated andwearing seat belts could sustain serious injuries or death in case of an accident or a sudden stop.

B140A01B-GAT For the safety of all passengers, lug- gage or other cargo should not be piled higher than the top of the seatback. REAR SEAT WARNING
B150A02A-AAT SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS All occupants of the vehicle should wear their seat belts at all times. In- deed, your province's laws may re- quire that some or all occupants of thevehicle use seat belts. The possibility of injury or the severity of injury in an accident will be de-creased if this elementary safety pre- caution is observed. In addition, follow the other instructions provided in thissection.
SEAT BELTS
B150C03A-AAT Larger Children Children who are too large for child restraint systems should always oc-cupy the rear seat and use the avail- able lap/shoulder belts. The lap por- tion should be fastened snug on thehips and as low as possible. Check belt fit periodically. A child's squirming could put the belt out of position. Chil-dren are afforded the most safety in the event of an accident when they are restrained by a proper restraint sys-tem in the rear seat. If a larger child (over age 13) must be seated in the front seat, the child should be securelyrestrained by the available lap/shoul- der belt and the seat should be placed in the rearmost position. Children un-der the age of 13 should be restrained securely in the rear seat. Never place a child under the age of 13 in the frontseat. NEVER place a rear facing child seat in the front seat of a vehicle.
B150B01Y-GAT Infant or Small Child Some countries require the use of child restraint systems for infants and small children. Whether this is requiredby law or not, it is strongly recom- mended that a child restraint seat or infant restraint system be used forinfants or small children weighing less than 18 kilograms (40 pounds). NOTE: Small children are best protected in an accident when properly restrainedby a child restraint system.

B150F01A-AAT One Person Per Belt Two people (including children) should never attempt to use a single seat belt.This could increase the severity of injuries in case of an accident. B150G01A-AAT Do Not Lie Down To reduce the chance of injuries in the event of an accident, and to achievemaximum effectiveness of the restraint system, all passengers should be sit- ting up and the front seats should be inan upright position when the car is moving. A seat belt cannot provide proper protection if the person is lyingdown in the rear seat or if the front seat is in a reclined position.
!WARNING:
Sitting in a reclined position or ly- ing down when your vehicle is inmotion can be dangerous. Even if you buckle up, your seat belts can't do their job when you're reclined.The shoulder belt can't do its job because it won't be against your body. Instead, it will be in front ofyou. In a crash you could go into it with great force, receiving serious neck or other injuries.The lap belt can't do its job either. In a crash the belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt forceswould be applied there, not at your strong pelvic bones. This could cause serious internalinjuries. For proper protection when the ve- hicle is in motion, have the seatbackupright. Then sit back in the seat and wear your seat belt properly. See page 1-24.
B150D01S-AAT Pregnant Women The use of a seat belt is recommended for pregnant women to lessen thechance of injury in an accident. When a seat belt is used, it should be placed as low and snugly as possible on thehips, not across the abdomen. For specific recommendations, consult a physician. B150E01A-AAT Injured Person A seat belt should be used when an injured person is being transported. When this is necessary, you should consult a physician for recommenda-tions.

B160B01A-AAT Periodic Inspection It is recommended that all seat belts be inspected periodically for wear ordamage of any kind. Parts of the sys- tem that are damaged should be re- placed as soon as possible.
B160A01A-AAT CARE OF SEAT BELTS Seat belt systems should never be disassembled or modified. In addition,care should be taken to assure that seat belts and belt hardware are not damaged by seat hinges, doors orother abuse.
!WARNING:
When you return the rear seatback to its upright position after the rear seatback was folded down, be care- ful not to damage the seat belt web- bing or buckle. Be sure that the webbing or buckle does not getcaught or pinched in the rear seat. You can adjust the height of the shoul-der belt anchor to one of 4 positions for maximum comfort and safety. If the height of the adjusting seat belt istoo near your neck, you will not be getting the most effective protection. The shoulder portion should be ad-justed so that it lies across your chest and midway over your shoulder near- est the door and not your neck.B170A01E
