Safety precautions
Adjust your seat, so that you can sit in
a safe, comfortable position. It plays
an important role in protecting the
driver and passengers, together with
the seat belts and air bags in an acci-
dent.
Air bag
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury, as
the event the air bag inflates. Move
your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, while still main-
taining control of the vehicle.
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting the vehicle.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in an appropriate child
restraint system. Children who out-
grow a booster seat and adults must
fasten their seat belts.
Do not use a cushion that
reduces friction between the
seat and the passenger. The
passenger's hips may slide
under the lap portion of the seat
belt during an accident or a
sudden stop. Serious or fatal
internal injuries may result
because the seat belt cannot
properly operate.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following pre-
cautions:
•
Adjust the driver’s seat in the
rearmost position, while main-
taining the ability to fully con-
trol the vehicle.
•
Hold the steering wheel with
both hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to
minimize the risk of injuries to
your hands and arms.
•
NEVER place anything or any-
one on the air bags.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
to adjust your seat belt:
•
NEVER use one seat belt to
fasten more than one occu-
pant.
•
Always sit in an upright posi-
tion with the lap portion of the
seat belt snug and low across
the hips.
•
NEVER allow children or
small infants to ride on a pas-
senger's laps.
