SITTING IN THE CORRECT

POSITION

WARNINGS

Do not recline the seatback too far

as this can cause the occupant to

slide under the safety belt, resulting

in serious injury in the event of a collision.

Sitting improperly, out of position or

with the seatback reclined too far,

can result in serious injury or death

in the event of a collision. Always sit

upright against your seatback, with your

feet on the floor.

Do not place objects higher than the

seatback to reduce the risk of serious

injury in the event of a collision or

during heavy braking.

E68595

When you use them properly, the seat,

head restraint, safety belt and air bags will

provide optimum protection in the event

of a collision.

We recommend that you follow these

guidelines:

•

Sit in an upright position with the base

of your spine as far back as possible.

•

Do not recline the seatback more than

30 degrees.

•

Adjust the head restraint so that the

top of it is level with the top of your

head and as far forward as possible.

Make sure that you remain

comfortable.

•

Keep sufficient distance between

yourself and the steering wheel. We

recommend a minimum of 10 inches

(25 centimeters) between your

breastbone and the air bag cover.

•

Hold the steering wheel with your arms

slightly bent.

•

Bend your legs slightly so that you can

press the pedals fully.

•

Position the shoulder strap of the

safety belt over the center of your

shoulder and position the lap strap

tightly across your hips.

Make sure that your driving position is

comfortable and that you can maintain full

control of your vehicle.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

WARNINGS

Fully adjust the head restraint before

you sit in or operate your vehicle. This

will help minimize the risk of neck

injury in the event of a crash. Do not adjust

the head restraint when your vehicle is

moving.

The head restraint is a safety device.

Whenever possible it should be

installed and properly adjusted when

the seat is occupied. An improperly

adjusted head restraint may not

adequately protect an occupant during an

impact from the rear.

Install the head restraint properly to

help minimize the risk of neck injury

in the event of a crash.
