Air bags

Safety precautions

(Continue)

You can take steps to reduce the risk

of being injured by an inflating air

bag. Sitting too close to an air bag

greatly increases the risk of injury in

the event the air bag inflates. It is rec-

ommended that drivers allow at least

25 cm (10 inches) between the cen-

ter of the steering wheel and their

chest.

Adjusting the seats so that you are sit-

ting in a safe, comfortable position

plays an important role in driver and

passenger safety together with the

seat belts and air bags in an accident.

• Hold the steering wheel by the

rim with hands at the 9 o’clock

and 3 o’clock positions to min-

imize the risk of injuries to

your hands and arms.

• NEVER place anything or any-

one between the air bag.

WARNING

• Do not allow the front passen-

ger to place feet or legs on the

dashboard to minimize the risk

of leg injuries.

Do not use a cushion that

reduces friction between the seat

and the passenger. The passen-

ger's hips may slide under the

lap portion of the seat belt during

an accident or a sudden stop.

Serious or fatal internal injuries

could result because the seat

belt cannot operate normally.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious

injury or death from an inflating

air bag, take the following pre-

cautions:

Seat belts

Always fasten your seat belt before

starting any trip.

• Adjust the driver’s seat as far

to the rear as possible while

maintaining the ability to main-

tain full control of the vehicle.

At all times, passengers should sit

upright and be properly restrained.

Infants and small children must be

restrained in appropriate child restraint

systems. Children who have outgrown

a booster seat and adults must be

restrained using the seat belts.

• Adjust the front passenger

seat as far to the rear as possi-

ble.

Take the following precautions

when adjusting your seat:

• NEVER use one seat belt for

more than one occupant.

• NEVER attempt to adjust the

seat while the vehicle is mov-

ing. The seat could respond

with unexpected movement

and may cause loss of vehicle

control resulting in an acci-

dent.

• Always position the seatback

upright with the lap portion of

the seat belt snug and low

across the hips.

• If there are occupants in the

rear seats, be careful while

adjusting the front seat posi-

tion.

• NEVER allow children or small

infants to ride in a passenger’s

lap.

• Do not place anything under

the front seats. Loose objects

in the driver’s foot area could

interfere with the operation of

the foot pedals, causing an

accident.

• Do not route the seat belt

across your neck, across sharp

edges, or reroute the shoulder

strap away from your body.

WARNING

To prevent injury:

• Do not adjust your seat while

wearing your seat belt.

Moving the seat cushion for-

ward may cause strong pres-

sure on your abdomen.

• Do not allow the seat belt to

become caught or jammed.

• Do not allow anything to inter-

fere with the normal position

and proper locking of the seat-

back.

• Do not allow your hands or

fingers to get caught in the

seat mechanisms while the

seat is moving.

• Do not place a cigarette lighter

on the floor or seat. When you

operate the seat, gas may exit

out of the lighter causing a fire.

Reclining seatback

Manual adjustment

Sitting in a reclined position when

the vehicle is in motion can be dan-

gerous. Even when buckled up, the

protections of your restraint system

(seat belts and/or air bags) is greatly

reduced by reclining your seatback.

WARNING

NEVER ride with a reclined

seatback when the vehicle is

moving.

Riding with a reclined seatback

increases your chance of seri-

ous or fatal injuries in the event

of a collision or sudden stop.

To recline the seatback:

Forward and rearward adjustment

1. Lean forward slightly and lift up the

seatback lever.

To move the seat forward or rearward:

1. Pull up the seat slide adjustment

lever and hold it.

2. Carefully lean back on the seat

and adjust the seatback to the

position you desire.

Driver and passengers should

ALWAYS sit well back in their

seats, properly belted, and with

the seatbacks upright.

2. Slide the seat to the position you

desire.

3. Release the lever and make sure

the seatback is locked in place.

(The lever MUST return to its orig-

inal position for the seatback to

lock.)

the seat is locked in place. Move

forward and rearward without using

the lever. If the seat moves, it is not

locked properly.

2-8

Seat belts must be snug against your

hips and chest to work properly.

When the seatback is reclined, the

shoulder belt cannot do its job

because it will not be snug against

your chest. Instead, it will be in front

of you. During an accident, you could

be thrown into the seat belt, causing

neck or other injuries.

The more the seatback is reclined,

the greater chance the passenger’s

hips will slide under the lap belt or

the passenger’s neck will strike the

shoulder belt.
