Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting
in a safe, comfortable position
plays an important role in driver and
passenger safety together with the
seat belts and air bags in an accident.
WARNING
Do not use a cushion that reduces friction between the seat
and the passenger. The passenger's
hips may slide under the
lap portion of the seat belt during
an accident or a sudden stop.
Serious or fatal internal injuries
could result because the seat
belt cannot operate properly.
Air bags
You can take steps to reduce the risk
of being injured by an inflating air
bag. Sitting too close to an air bag
greatly increases the risk of injury in
the event the air bag inflates.
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) recommends
that drivers allow at least 10 inches
(25 cm) between the center of the
steering wheel and their chest.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death from an inflating
air bag, take the following precautions:
- Adjust the driver’s seat as far to
the rear as possible while maintaining
the ability to maintain
full control of the vehicle.
- Adjust the front passenger seat
as far to the rear as possible.
- Hold the steering wheel by the
rim with hands at the 9 o’clock
and 3 o’clock positions to minimize
the risk of injuries to your
hands and arms.
- NEVER place anything or anyone
between the steering wheel
and the air bag.
- Do not allow the front passenger
to place feet or legs on the
dashboard to minimize the risk
of leg injuries.
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before
starting any trip.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in appropriate child restraint
systems. Children who have outgrown
a booster seat and adults must be restrained using the seat belts.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat belt:
- NEVER use one seat belt for
more than one occupant.
- Always position the seatback
upright with the lap portion of
the seat belt snug and low
across the hips.
- NEVER allow children or small
infants to ride in a passenger’s
lap.
- Do not route the seat belt
across your neck, across sharp
edges, or reroute the shoulder
strap away from your body.
- Do not allow the seat belt to
become caught or jammed.
