Front passenger's seat

rearmost position .
To avoid contact with the airbag while it is de-
ploying, do not sit any closer t o t he instrument
panel than necessary and always wear the three -
point safety belt provided adjusted correctly . We
recommend that you adjust the passenger's seat
in the following manner:
.. Move the front passenger seat into the rear -
most position of the fore and aft adjustment
range

in Why is your seat adjustment so
important? on page 60.
• Bring the backrest up to an (almost) upright
position.
Do not
ride with the seat reclined .
.. Adjust the head restraint so the upper edge is
as even as possible with the top of your head. If
that is not possible, try to adjust the head re-
straint so that it is as close to this position as
possible

WARNING
- Never adjust the driver's or front passeng-
er 's seat while the vehicle is moving. If you
do this while the vehicle is moving, you will
be out of position . Always adjust the driver's
or front passenger's seat when the vehicle is
not moving.
- Be careful when adjusting the seat height.
Check to see that no one is in the way, or se-
rious injury could result!
- Because the seats can be electrically adjust-
ed with the ignition off or with the ignition
key removed, never leave children unattend-
ed in the vehicle . Unsupervised use of the
electric seat adjustments
may cause serious
injury .
- To reduce the risk of injury in the case of
sudden braking or accident, front passen-
gers must never ride in a moving veh icle
with the backrest reclined. Safety belts and
the airbag system only offer maximum pro-
tection when the backrest is upright and the
safety belts are properly positioned on the
body. The more the backrest is reclined, the
greater the risk of personal injury from an
incorrect seating position and improperly
positioned safety belts.
