When driving, remember to sit
upright and adjust the seat as far
back as possible while allowing full
control of the vehicle. When riding
as a front passenger, adjust the seat
as far back as possible.

This will reduce the risk of injuries
to both you and your unborn child
that can be caused by a crash or an
inflating front airbag.

Each time you have a checkup, ask
your doctor if it’s okay for you to
drive.

If they do, they

could be very seriously injured in a
crash.

Carrying hard or sharp

objects on your lap, or driving with
a pipe or other sharp object in
your mouth, can result in injuries
if your front airbag inflates.

If your

hands or arms are close to an
airbag cover, they could be injured
if the airbag inflates.

Objects on

the covers marked ‘‘SRS AIRBAG’’
could interfere with the proper
operation of the airbags or be
propelled inside the vehicle and
hurt someone if the airbags inflate.

If a side airbag or a

side curtain airbag inflates, a cup
holder or other hard object
attached on or near the door could
be propelled inside the vehicle and
hurt someone.

Devices intended to improve

occupant comfort or reposition the
shoulder part of a seat belt can
reduce the protective capability of
the seat belt and increase the
chance of serious injury in a crash.

Protecting Adults and Teens

Two people should never use the
same seat belt.

Do not place hard or sharp objects
between yourself and a f ront
airbag.

Keep your hands and arms away
f rom the airbag covers.

Do not attach or place objects on
the f ront airbag covers.

Do not attach hard objects on or
near a door.

Do not put any accessories on seat
belts.
