Seats Recline Adjustment WARNINGS When reclining the seat backrest forward and backward, take care not to get your hands caught between the seat backrest and the frame, catches or mechanism. Failure to take care may result in personal injury. Make sure that any cargo or objects are not trapped behind the seat backrest.
