Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
- Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
