Protecting Adults

Reclining a seat-back so that the
shoulder part of the belt no longer
rests against the occupant's chest
reduces the protective capability of
the belt. It also increases the chance
of sliding under the belt in a crash
and being seriously injured. The
farther a seat-back is reclined, the
greater the risk of injury.

See page

for how to adjust seat-

backs.

4.Adjust the Head Restraints

Before driving, make sure everyone

with an adjustable head restraint has

properly positioned the head
restraint. The restraint should be
positioned so the back of the
occupant's head rests against the
center of the restraint. A taller
person should adjust the restraint as
high as possible.

Properly adjusted head restraints

will help protect occupants from
whiplash and other crash injuries.

See page

77

for how to adjust the

head restraints.

Driver and Passenger Safety

Reclining the seat-back too far

can result in serious injury or
death in a crash.

Adjust the seat-back to an

upright position and sit well
back in the seat.

Improperly positioning head
restraints reduces their

effectiveness and you can be
seriously injured in a crash.

Make sure head restraints are
in place and positioned properly
before driving.
