COMFORT ADJUSTMENT Adjusting seatback angle Adjusting seat cushion height SS16005 SS16007 Lean forward and pull the lever up. Then lean back to the desired angle and release the lever. Turn the knob either way. CAUTION To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, avoid reclining the seatback any more than needed. The seat belts provide maximum protection in a frontal or rear collision when the driver and the passenger are sitting up straight and well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap belt may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen. In the event of a frontal collision, the more the seat is reclined, the greater the risk of personal injury. 98 2003 IS300 from Aug. '02 Prod. (OM53439U)
