SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seatback reclined too far
can take weight off the seat cushion
and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a crash. Always sit
upright against your seat back, with your
feet on the floor.
Do not place any objects on a folded
seat. Hard objects may become
projectiles in a crash or sudden stop,
which may increase the risk of serious
personal injury.

When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in a crash.

Seats
We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
•
Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag 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
seatbelt 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.
MANUAL SEATS
Do not adjust the driver seat when
your vehicle is moving.
