the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,

ceive neck or other serious injuries.
You could also slide under the lap

seat should be upright. Always sit
well back in the seat and adjust the
seat belt properly. See “Precautions
on seat belt usage” later in this sec-

WARNING

Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seat when it
is in the fold-down position. Use of
these areas by passengers without
proper restraints could result in seri-
ous injury in an accident or sudden
stop.

It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area inside of a vehicle. In a
collision, people riding in these areasare more likely to be seriously in-
jured or killed.

Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a seat belt properly.

Do not fold down the rear seats when
occupants are in the rear seat area or
any luggage is on the rear seats.

Head restraints should be adjusted
properly as they may provide signifi-
cant protection against injury in an
accident. Always replace and adjust
them properly if they have been re-
moved for any reason.

If the head restraints are removed for
any reason, they should be securely
stored to prevent them from causing
injury to passengers or damage to
the vehicle in case of sudden braking
or an accident.

Properly secure all cargo to help pre-
vent it from sliding or shifting. Do notplace cargo higher than the seat-
backs. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.

When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched po-
sition. If they are not completely se-
cured, passengers may be injured in
an accident or sudden stop.

When returning the seatbacks, be
sure to attach the rear center seat
belt connector.

Do not unfasten the rear center seat
belt connector except when folding
down the rear seat.

Do not remove the head restraints
except when folding down the rear
seat or using certain child restraints.

When attaching the rear center seat
belt connector, be certain that the
seatbacks are completely secured in
the latched position and the rear cen-
ter seat belt connector is completely
secured.1-6
