Warning!

G

Never let more people ride in the vehicle

than there are seat belts available. Be sure

everyone riding in the vehicle is correctly

restrained with a separate seat belt. Never

use a seat belt for more than one person at

a time.

Warning!

G

Never ride in a moving vehicle with the seat

backrest in an excessively reclined position

as this can be dangerous. You could slide

under the seat belt in a collision. If you slide

under it, the belt would apply force at the ab-

domen or neck. That could cause serious or

even fatal injuries. The seat backrest and

seat belt provide the best restraint when the

wearer is in a nearly upright position and the

belt is properly positioned on the body.

Warning!

G

Read and observe the additional warning

notices printed in the “Safety and Security”

section (

page 66) and (

page 69).
