comfortable.

Do not recline the seatback too far

as this can cause the occupant to

slide under the seatbelt, resulting in

serious injury in the event of a collision.

Keep sufficient distance between

yourself and the steering wheel. We

recommend a minimum of 10 in

the airbag cover.

Always sit upright against your

seatback with your feet on the floor.

•

Hold the steering wheel with your arms

slightly bent.

Do not place objects higher than the

top of the seat backrest. Failure to

follow this instruction could result in

personal injury or death in the event of a

sudden stop or crash.

Bend your legs slightly so that you can

press the pedals fully.

Position the shoulder strap of the

safety belt over the center of your

shoulder and position the lap strap

tightly across your hips.

Make sure that your driving position is

comfortable and that you can maintain full

control of your vehicle.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

WARNINGS

To minimize the risk of neck injury in

the event of a crash, the driver and

passenger occupants should not sit

in or operate the vehicle, until the head

restraint is placed in its proper position.

The driver should never adjust the head

restraint while the vehicle is in motion.

E68595

When you use them properly, the seat,

head restraint, safety belt and airbags will

provide optimum protection in the event

of a crash.

The adjustable head restraint is a

safety device. Whenever possible, it

should be installed and properly

adjusted when the seat is occupied. Failure

to adjust the head restraint properly could

reduce its effectiveness during certain

impacts.

We recommend that you follow these

guidelines:

•

Sit in an upright position with the base

of your spine as far back as possible.

Install the head restraint properly to

help minimize the risk of neck injury

in the event of a crash.

•

Do not recline the seat backrest more

than 30°.

HEATED SEATS (If Equipped)

WARNING

People who are unable to feel pain

to their skin because of advanced

age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal

cord injury, medication, alcohol use,

exhaustion or other physical conditions,

must exercise care when using the heated

seat. The heated seat may cause burns

even at low temperatures, especially if

used for long periods of time. Do not place

anything on the seat that insulates against

heat, such as a blanket or cushion. This

may cause the heated seat to overheat.

Do not puncture the seat with pins, needles

or other pointed objects. This may damage

the heating element which may cause the

heated seat to overheat. An overheated

seat may cause serious personal injury.

Do not do the following:

•

Place heavy objects on the seat.

Operate the heated seat if water or any

other liquid is spilled on the seat. Allow

the seat to dry thoroughly.

•

Operate the heated seats unless the

engine is running. Doing so can cause

the battery to lose charge.
