the front passenger seat is being used.
Holding the steering wheel the wrong way can cause serious
injuries to the hands, arms, and head if the driver's airbag
inflates.
Always hold the steering wheel with both hands on the outside
of the steering wheel rim at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock
positions to help reduce the risk of personal injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position or with
your hands anywhere inside the steering wheel or on the
steering wheel hub. Holding the steering wheel the wrong way
increases the risk of severe injury to the arms, hands, and
head if the driver airbag deploys.
