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

Never let more people ride in the vehicle

than there are seat belts available. Make

sure everyone riding in the vehicle is cor-

rectly restrained with a separate seat belt.

Never use a seat belt for more than one per-

son at a time.

Warning!

G

Read and observe the additional warning no-

tices printed in the “Safety and Security”

section (

page 74) and (

page 77).
