In a collision or sudden stop, the seat belt cannot provide adequate protection. Always make sure the seat belts are fully pulled out from under the seatbacks. Returning Rear Seatbacks to the Upright Position: A rear seatback not fully returned and locked in the upright position is dangerous. Sudden stops or maneuvering could cause a seatback to flip forward suddenly resulting in injury. If the red indicator is visible on the back of the rear seatback knob, the seatback is not locked in the upright position. When returning the seatback to the upright position, make sure there is no red indication. Locked position 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. Height adjustment To raise a head restraint, pull it up to the desired position. To lower the head restraint, press the stopcatch release, then push the head restraint down.
