To reduce the chance of injury,
wear your seat belt properly, sit
upright with your back against the
seat, and move the seat as far back
as possible from the steering
wheel while still maintaining full
control of the vehicle. Also make
sure your front seat passenger
moves the seat as far to the rear as
possible.
Most shorter drivers can get far
enough away from the steering
wheel and still reach the pedals.
However, if you are concerned
about sitting too close, we
recommend that you investigate
whether some type of adaptive
equipment may help.
Once your seat is adjusted
correctly, rock it back and forth to
make sure the seat is locked in
position.
See pages 91 and 92 for how to
adjust the front seats.
3. Adjust the Seat-Backs
Adjust the driver's seat-back to
a comfortable, upright position,
leaving ample space between your
chest and the airbag cover in the
center of the steering wheel. If
you sit too close to the steering
wheel, you could be injured if the
airbag inflates.
A front passenger should also
adjust the seat-back to an upright
position, but as far from the
Driver and Passenger Safety
Sitting too close to the airbag
can result in serious injury or
death if the airbags inflate.
Always sit as far back from the
airbags as possible.
