To reduce the risk of injuries in an accident,
follow these instructions:
- The driver and front passenger position
their seats so that they can correctly
wear the seat belt while being as far
away from the front airbags as possible.
- Sit upright, place both feet on the
floor, and make sure that the seat back
reclines no more than 30 degrees.
- Easily reach the pedals with your feet
and slightly bend your arms while
holding the steering wheel. The distance
between the driver's chest and the
center of the airbag cover should be at
least 10 inches (254 mm).
-
Grasp the steering wheel on the steering
wheel rim. Hold your hands at the 3
o'clock and 9 o'clock positions to reduce
the risk of injury to your hands or arms if
the airbag deploys.
-
Adjust the D ring position to position the
shoulder section of the seat belt midway
between your neck and your shoulder.
Fit the lap section of the belt tightly as
low and snug as possible around the
hips, not the waist.
WARNING: When the seat is in the
reclined position, the shoulder belt
and lap belt does not provide proper
protection in an accident. You could
slip past the shoulder belt, be thrown
into the shoulder belt and receive
neck or other serious injuries. You
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious internal injuries.
