SEATS AND RESTRAINTS Raise the seat all the way up so that the seat will tilt back and completely clear objects behind you. Safety Restraint Belts 1 Safety belts have proven to be the single most effective means available for reducing the potential for either injury or death in motor vehicle accidents. Therefore, read the following instructions and always observe user warnings pertaining to safety belts. WARNING! Do not drive or ride with your seat back in the reclined position. You could be injured by sliding under the seat belts in a collision. Failure to comply may result in personal injury or death. Unbelted Person in Crash WARNING!
Your vehicle may be equipped with a seat belt indicator in the warning light display above the speedometer/tachometer (“Seat Belt, Fasten” “Seat Belt, Fasten” on page 3-45). It will turn on if the seat belt is not fastened and the ignition key is turned on. Do not drive vehicle without your seat belt and your riders belts fas- tened. Unbelted riders could be thrown into the windshield or other parts of the cab or could be thrown out of the cab. Injuries can be much worse when riders are unbelted. Al- ways fasten your seat belt and be sure anyone riding with you does the same. Failure to comply may result in personal injury or death. (02/14) Y53-1203-1D1 1-21
