WARNING
■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers are not
injured by the moving seat.

To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap be lt during a collision, do not recline the seat
more than necessary.

of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while drivin g as the seat may unexpectedly move and
