Your vehicle is equipped with many
features that work together to
protect you and your passengers
during a crash.

Some features do not require any
action on your part. These include a
strong steel framework that forms a
safety cage around the passenger
compartment; front and rear crush
zones; a collapsible steering column;
and tensioners that tighten the front
seat belts in a crash.

However, you and your passengers
can’t take full advantage of these
features unless you remain sitting in
a proper position and

. In fact, some safety

features can contribute to injuries if
they are not used properly.

The following pages explain how you
can take an active role in protecting
yourself and your passengers.
