Safety system of your vehicle
You can take steps to help reduce
the risk of being injured by an inflat-
ing air bag. The greatest risk is sitting
too close to the air bag. An air bag
needs space to inflate. It is recom-
mended that drivers sit as far as pos-
sible between the center of the steer-
ing wheel and the chest while still
maintaining control of the vehicle.

dren under age 13 in the rear
seats of the vehicle.
•
Adjust the front passenger's

ing you to maintain full con-
trol of the vehicle.
•

hands at the 9 o'clock and 3
