Seating and Safety Restraints SEATING Notes: Reclining the seatback can cause an occupant to slide under the seat's safety belt, resulting in severe personal injuries in the event of a collision. Do not pile cargo higher than the seatbacks to reduce the risk of injury in a collision or sudden stop. Before returning the seatback to its original position, make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped behind the seatback. After returning the seatback to its original position, pull on the seatback to ensure that it has fully latched. An unlatched seat may become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or collision. Adjustable head restraints (front seats) Head restraints help to limit head motion in the event of a rear collision. The front seats in your vehicle have adjustable head restraints. Adjust your head restraint so that it is located directly or as close as possible behind your head. Raise the head restraint by pulling it upward. 77 2006 Taurus (tau) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
