Adjusting the Seat PositionsAdjust the driver's seat as far back as possible  
while allowing you to maintain full control of  
the vehicle. You should be able to sit upright,  
well back in the seat and be able to 
adequately press the pedals without leaning  
forward, and grip the steering wheel  
comfortably. The passenger's seat should be 
adjusted in a similar manner, so that it is as far  
back from the front airbag in the dashboard  as possible.

Always make seat adjustments before driving.

Sitting too close to a front airbag can result  
in serious injury or death if the front  
airbags inflate. 
Always sit as far back from the front  
airbags as possible while maintaining
