Protecting Adults

To reduce the chance of injury, wear

your seat belt properly, sit upright

with your back against the seat, and

move the seat as far back as possible

from the steering wheel while still

maintaining full control of the car.

Also make sure your passenger

moves the seat as far to the rear as
possible.

Most shorter drivers can get far
enough away from the steering

wheel and still reach the pedals.

However, if you are concerned about
sitting too close, we recommend that

you investigate whether some type

of adaptive equipment may help.

Once your seat is adjusted correctly,
rock it back and forth to make sure
the seat is locked in position.

See page

for how to adjust the

seats.

3. Adjust the Seat-Backs

Adjust the driver's seat-back to a

comfortable, upright position,

leaving ample space between your

chest and the airbag cover in the

center of the steering wheel. If you

sit too close to the steering wheel,

you could be injured if the airbag

inflates.

A passenger should also adjust the

seat-back to an upright position, but

as far from the dashboard as
possible. A passenger who sits too
close to the dashboard could be

injured if the airbag inflates.

Driver and Passenger Safety

Sitting too close to an airbag

can result in serious injury or
death if the airbags inflate.

Always sit as far back from the
airbags as possible.
