• Keep sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel.

We recommend a minimum of 10 inches (250 millimeters) between
your breastbone and the airbag cover.

• Hold the steering wheel with your arms slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the safety belt over the center of your

shoulder and position the lap strap tightly across your hips.

Make sure that your driving position is comfortable and that you can
maintain full control of your vehicle.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

WARNING: To minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a
collision, you and the passenger occupants should not sit in and/or

operate the vehicle, until the head restraint is placed in its proper position.
Never adjust the head restraint while the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING: The adjustable head restraint is a safety device.
Whenever possible it should be installed and properly adjusted

when the seat is occupied.

WARNING: Install the head restraint properly to minimize the
risk of neck injury in the event of a collision.

Note: Adjust the seat back to an upright driving position before
adjusting any head restraint. Properly adjust the head restraint so that
the top of the head restraint is even with the top of your head and
positioned as close as possible to the back of your head. For occupants
of extremely tall stature, adjust the head restraint to its full up position.
