WARNING . Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the lap belt and receive serious internal injuries. For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt properly. See "PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE" later in this section. After adjustment, check to be sure the seat is securely locked. HEAD RESTRAINTS WARNING Head restraints should be adjusted properly as they may provide significant protection against injury in an accident. Do not remove them. Check the adjustment after someone else uses the seat. . SSS0227A Reclining A Pull the reclining strap * and position the seatback at the desired angle. Release the reclining strap after positioning the seat at the desired angle. The reclining feature allows adjustment of the seatback for occupants of different sizes to help obtain proper seat belt fit. (See "PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE" later in this section.) The seatback may also be reclined to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is parked. . 1-8 Safety - Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
