G WARNING
Vehicles with electrically adjustable rear
bench seats:
If you adjust the seat after installing a child
restraint system:
R the seat belt could slacken or become too
tight

loose, incorrectly positioned or damaged

be able to provide the intended level of pro-
tection. This poses an increased risk of injury
or even fatal injury.

restraint system.

locked, this will be shown in the multifunction
display in the instrument cluster. A warning
tone also sounds.
