Maintain a Proper Seating Position

After all occupants have adjusted their seats and head restraints, and put on
their seat belts, it is very important that they continue to sit upright, well back
in their seats, with their feet on the floor, until the vehicle is safely parked and
the engine is off.
Sitting improperly can increase the chance of injury during a crash. For
example, if an occupant slouches, lies down, turns sideways, sits forward, leans
forward or sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the chance of injury during a
crash is greatly increased.
In addition, an occupant who is out of position in the front seat can be
seriously or fatally injured in a crash by striking interior parts of the vehicle or
being struck by an inflating front airbag.
Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious injury or death in a
crash.
Always sit upright, well back in the seat, with your feet on the floor.

Glove Box

Press the button to open the glove box.
You can lock the glove box with the built-
in key.
An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash, even
if the passenger is wearing the seat belt.
Always keep the glove box closed while driving.
