WARNING: Cover sharp edges on the load to help prevent
injury to occupants. Secure the load to help prevent shifting

during sudden stops.

WARNING: Before returning the seatback to its original
position, make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped

behind the seatback. After returning the seatback to its original
position, pull on the seatback to ensure that it has fully latched. An
unlatched seat may become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or
collision.

Adjusting the front power seat (if equipped)

WARNING: Never adjust the driver’s seat or seatback when the
vehicle is moving.

WARNING: Do not pile cargo higher than the seatbacks to
reduce the risk of injury in a collision or sudden stop.

WARNING: Always drive and ride with your seatback upright
and the lap belt snug and low across the hips.

WARNING: Reclining the seatback can cause an occupant to
slide under the seat’s safety belt, resulting in severe personal

injuries in the event of a collision.

WARNING: Sitting improperly out of position or with the seat
back reclined too far can take off weight from the seat cushion

and affect the decision of the front passenger sensing system, resulting
in serious injury or death in a crash. Always sit upright against your
seatback, with your feet on the floor.
