Knowing your vehicle
(Continued)
• Always drive and ride with
your seatback upright and the
lap portion of the seat belt, or
lap belt, snug and low across
the hips. This position puts
your seat belts in the best
position to protect you in case
of an accident.
• In order to avoid unnecessary
air bag injuries including the
possibility of severe injury or
death, always sit as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel so that your chest is
away at least 250 mm (10 inch-
es) away from the steering
wheel.
WARNING
• Loose objects in the driver’s
foot area could interfere with
the operation of the foot ped-
als, possibly causing an acci-
dent. Loose objects might
interfere with the seat slide
mechanism. Do not place any-
thing under the front seats.
• Children should never be left
unattended in the car.
WARNING
- Driver’s seat
• Never attempt to adjust seat
whilst the vehicle is moving.
This could result in loss of
control, and an accident caus-
ing death, serious injury, or
property damage.
• Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position
of the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any
other way interfering with
proper locking of a seatback
could result in serious or fatal
injury in a sudden stop or col-
lision.
