Front and Rear Seats

Correct Driving Position

SEATING AND SAFETY RESTRAINTS

Front and Rear Seats

The seat, head support, seat belt and airbags
work together to maximize your safety. Using
these correctly ensures greater protection.
Position the seat so you can wear the seat belt
correctly, while being as far away from the front
airbag as possible:
1. Sit upright with both feet on the floor and
the seat back reclined no more than 30
degrees.
2. Make sure you can easily reach the pedals
and that your arms are slightly bent when
holding the steering wheel. Your chest
should be at least 25 cm from the center of
the airbag cover.
3. Place the shoulder section of the seat belt
mid-way between your neck and your
shoulder. Fit the lap section of the belt
tightly across your hips, not across your
stomach.
Model S seats include integrated head supports
that cannot be adjusted or removed.

WARNING: Do not adjust seats while

WARNING: Riding in a moving vehicle
with the seat back reclined can result in
serious injuries in a collision, as you could slide
under the lap belt or be propelled into the seat
belt. Ensure your seat back is reclined no more
than 30 degrees when the vehicle is moving.
