dashboard as possible. A

passenger who sits too close to the

dashboard could be injured if the

airbag inflates.
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 pages

92

and

93

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.

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.
