WARNING Reclining: Sitting in a reclined position while the vehicle is moving is dangerous because you don't get the full protection from seat belts. During sudden braking or a collision, you can slide under the lap belt and suffer serious internal injuries. For maximum protection, sit well back and upright. Reclining the Second-Row Seatback: Reclining the second-row seatback when the third-row seat is occupied is dangerous.Because the clearance in the third-row seat is limited, the occupants in the third-row seat can hurt themselves seriously on the reclined second-row seatback. Don't recline the second-row seatback when the third-row seat is occupied. To change the seatback angle, lean forward slightly while raising the lever. Then lean back to the desired position and release the lever. CAUTION When returning a rear-reclined seatback to its upright position, make sure you hold onto the seatback with your other hand while operating the lever. If the seatback is not supported, it will flip forward suddenly and could cause injury. qHead Restraint WARNING Head Restraints Adjustment: Driving with the head restraints adjusted too low or removed is dangerous. With no support behind your head, your neck could be seriously injured in a collision. Always drive with the head restraints inserted when seats are being used and make sure they are properly adjusted. 2-14 Form No.8U61-EA-05G
