'03 4Runner_U (L/O 0208) Fold-down rear seats 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. 3. SEAT LUMBAR ADJUSTING SWITCH SUPPORT BEFORE FOLDING DOWN REAR SEAT Stow the rear center seat belt buckle as shown in the illustration. This prevents the seat belt buckle from falling out when you fold the seatback. If you are using a trash holder, lower it. Push the control switch on either side. The amount of lumber support will change while the switch is pushed. NOTICE The seat belt buckle must be stowed before you fold the seatback. 44 2003 4RUNNER from Aug. '02 Prod. (OM35795U)
