If you sit too close to the steering
wheel or dashboard, you can be
seriously injured by an inflating
airbag, or by striking the steering
wheel or dashboard.
The following pages provide
instructions on how to properly
protect the driver, an adult
passenger or teenage child large
enough and mature enough to drive
or ride in your vehicle. See pages
for important guidelines on
how to properly protect a small or
larger child.
Adjust the driver’s seat as far to the
rear as possible while allowing you to
maintain full control of the vehicle.
Have a passenger adjust his or her
seat as far to the rear as possible.
After everyone has entered the
vehicle, be sure the doors are closed
and locked.
Locking the doors reduces the
chance of someone being thrown out
of the vehicle during a crash, and it
helps prevent a passenger from
accidentally opening a door and
falling out.
Locking the doors also helps prevent
an outsider from unexpectedly
opening a door when you come to a
stop.
Your vehicle has a door monitor
indicator on the instrument panel to
indicate when either door or the
hatch is not tightly closed.
See page
for how to lock the
doors, and page
for how the
monitor indicator works.
