06 SIENNA_U (L/O 0603) -Adjusting third seats (manual seat) D Make sure the seat belts are not twisted or caught under the seat and are arranged in their proper position and are ready to use. Lean forward and pull the strap forward. Then lean back to the desired angle and release the strap. CAUTION D Install each seat in the same position from which it was removed. Failure to do so will prevent the occupants from using seat belts properly. D Align both seatbacks at the same angle when a person sits in the third seat center position. Otherwise, the person cannot wear the seat belt properly and this may cause serious injuries in a collision. D Do not reinstall the seat with its back facing forward. D Make sure the seat is securely locked in the proper position. D Avoid reclining the seatback any more than needed. The seat belts provide maximum protection in a frontal or rear collision when the passengers 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 or your neck may contact the shoulder belt. In the event of a frontal collision, the more the seat is reclined, the greater the risk of death or personal injury. NOTICE Do not carry the removed seat by holding the seat position adjusting lever. 90 2006 SIENNA from March '06 Prod. (OM45443U)
