WARNING
Driving or riding in a vehicle
with a front seatback reclined
could lead to serious or fatal
injury in an accident. If a front
seat is reclined during an acci-
dent, the occupant’s hips may
slide under the lap portion of
the safety belt applying great
force to the unprotected
abdomen. Serious or fatal inter-
nal injuries could result. The
driver must advise the front pas-
senger to keep the seatbacks in
comfortably upright position
whenever the vehicle is in
motion.
