Front seats
WARNING
D
Never adjust the seat while driving to avoid the possibility of
loss of vehicle control and of personal injury.
D
Never drive the vehicle with the head restraints removed be-
cause they are designed to reduce the risk of serious neck injury
in the event that the vehicle is struck from the rear.
D
Before adjusting the seat, make sure the hands and feet of rear
seat passengers are clear of the adjusting mechanism.

Seatbelts provide maximum restraint when the occupant sits
well back and upright in the seat. To reduce the risk of sliding un-
der the seatbelt in a collision, the front seatbacks should be al-

the front seatbacks are not used in the upright position in a colli-

ing up over the abdomen will increase, and both can result in se-
rious internal injury or death.
D
Do not put cushions or any other materials between occupants
and seatbacks or seat cushions. If you do so, the risk of sliding
under the lap belt and of the lap belt sliding up over the abdomen
will increase, and both can result in serious internal injury or death.
D

Occupants who are out of proper position when the SRS airbag
deploys could suffer very serious injuries.
Because the SRS airbag needs enough space for deployment, the
driver should always sit upright and well back in the seat as far
from the steering wheel as practical while still maintaining full ve-
hicle control and the front passenger should move the seat as far
back as possible and sit upright and well back in the seat.
D
Put children aged 12 and under in the rear seat properly re-
strained at all times. The SRS airbag deploys with considerable
speed and force and can injure or even kill children, especially if
they are 12 years of age and under and are not restrained or im-
properly restrained. Because children are lighter and weaker than
