To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt and thereby suffering Personal injury in the event of acol- lision, do not recline the seat back more than necessary for comfort. The seat belts are designed to pro- vide optimum protection when the front passenger and driver are sit- ting well back and upright in their seats. During a collision, especially a front-end collision, the risk of per- sonal injury may increase with the increasing recline angle of the seat back because the front passenger and driver may slide under the lap belt and have restraint forces ap- plied directly to thoir abdominal areas. Therefore, try to keep the seat back in a fairly upright position whenever possible. 241SEATS Stop catch foloase HEADREST With stop-catch release To 1aise the headrest, pull t up. ‘© To lower tne headrest, press the siop- catch release and press the headrest 212 Without stop-catch release ‘© To raise the headrest, pul up. ‘+ To lower the neadrest, press it down, WARNING! * To reduce the riek of head and neck Injuries, do not operate the vehicle with the headrest removed. * Adjust the top of the headrest so that itis closest to the top of your ears (and never behind your neck) to reduce the chance of injury in the event of a collision.
