¢ Fore and aft adjustment

Pull the lever upward and slide the seat to

the desired position. Then release the le-

ver and move the seat back and forth to

make sure that it is securely locked into

place.

¢ Reclining the seatback

Pull the reclining lever up and adjust the

seatback to the desired position. Then re-

lease the lever and make sure the seat-

back is securely locked into place.

The seatback placed in a reclined position

can spring back upward with force when

released. When operating the reclining le-

ver to return the seatback, hold it lightly so

that it may be raised back gradually.

According to accident statistics,

children are safer when properly re-

strained in the rear seating posi-

tions than in the front seating posi-

tions. For instructions and precau-

tions concerning child restraint sys-

tems, see the “Child restraint sys-

tems” section in this chapter.

To prevent the passenger from slid-

ing under the seatbelt in the event of

a collision, always put the seatback

in the upright position while the ve-

hicle is in motion. Also, do not place

objects such as cushions between

the passenger and the seatback. If

you do so, the risk of sliding under

the lap belt and of the lap belt sliding

up over the abdomen will increase,

and both can result in serious inter-

nal injury or death.
