juries can occur in the event of emergency braking or a collision.! Adjust the driver's seat so that the foot
pedals, steering wheel and instrument

as they may interfere with the seat-
lock mechanism or unexpectedly
push up the seat position adjusting
lever; the seat may suddenly move,
causing the driver to lose control of
the vehicle.!
