these areas are more likely to be seriously injured  
or killed.  
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your  
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat  
belts. In a collision, people riding in these areas  
are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.

Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is  
dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat  
could cause you to lose control. The seat belt  
might not be adjusted properly and you could be  
injured. Adjust the seat only while the vehicle is  
parked.  
Do not adjust the steering column while driving.  
Adjusting the steering column while driving or driving  
with the steering column unlocked, could cause the  
driver to lose control of the vehicle. Failure to follow  
this warning may result in serious injury or death.  
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that  
the shoulder belt is no longer resting against your  
chest. In a collision you could slide under the seat  
belt and be seriously or even fatally injured. Use  
the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.
