Additional Safety Information

The seat belts and airbags are obvi-
ously important parts of your occu-
pant protection system.
In addition, you should know that
sitting upright, locking the doors,
and stowing things properly can also
increase your safety and possibly
even save your life.

Driver and Passenger Safety

Table of Contents

Seat-back Position

The seat-backs should be in an
upright position for you and your
passenger to get the most protection
from the seat belts.
If you recline a seat-back, you reduce
the protective capability of your seat
belt. The farther a seat-back is
reclined, the greater the risk that
you will slide under the belt in a
severe crash and be very seriously
injured.
For information on how to adjust the
seat-back, see page 52.

Door Locks

It is not safe to leave your car doors
unlocked. A passenger, especially a
child, could open a door and
accidentally fall out. Also, there is a
greater chance of being thrown out
of the car during a crash when the
doors are not locked.
