Seats and Restraints

Raising the Seatback

{

WARNING

If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.

{

WARNING

A safety belt that is improperly
routed, not properly attached,
or twisted will not provide the
protection needed in a crash. The
person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. After raising the
rear seatback, always check to be
sure that the safety belts are
properly routed and attached, and
are not twisted.

To raise a seatback:

1. Lift the seatback up and push it

rearward to lock it in place.
Make sure the safety belt is in
the retainer clip (if equipped)
and is not twisted or caught in
the seatback.

A tab near the seatback lever
retracts when the seatback is
locked in place.

2. Push and pull the top of the

seatback to be sure it is locked
into position.

3. Repeat the steps to raise the

other seatback, if necessary.

When the seat is not in use, it
should be kept in the upright, locked
position.

Safety Belts

This section of the manual
describes how to use safety belts
properly. It also describes some
things not to do with safety belts.

{

WARNING

Do not let anyone ride where a
safety belt cannot be worn
properly. In a crash, if you or your
passenger(s) are not wearing
safety belts, injuries can be much
worse than if you are wearing
safety belts. You can be seriously
injured or killed by hitting things
inside the vehicle harder or by
being ejected from the vehicle. In
addition, anyone who is not
buckled up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.
