SEATS
While the vehicle is being driven, all vehicle occupants should
have the seatback upright, sit well back in the seat and properly
wear the seat belts provided.
CAUTION
Do not drive the vehicle unless the occupants are
properly seated. Do not allow passengers to sit in the
luggage compartment or cargo area. Persons not
properly seated and/or properly restrained by seat
belts can be severely injured in the event of
emergency braking or a collision.
During driving, do not allow passengers to stand up
or move around between seats. Otherwise, severe
injuries can occur in the event of emergency braking
or a collision.
Front seat precautions
Driver seat
CAUTION
The driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious injury especially if the driver
is very close to the airbag. The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (”NHTSA”) advises:
Since the risk zone for driver airbag is the first 50–75
mm (2–3 in.) of inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10 in.)
from your driver airbag provides you with a clear margin
of safety. This distance is measured from the center of
the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less
than 250 mm (10 in.) away now, you can change your
driving position in several ways:
Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still
reaching the pedals comfortably.
Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle
designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250 mm
(10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way
forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes
it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm,
non–slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle
has that feature.
