CAUTION

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

restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

serious injury.
