2 Seats and restraint systems
N00401600153
Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help protect
you and your passengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn
properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or
death in various types of crashes. For added protection during a
severe frontal collision, your vehicle has a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door locks also are safety
equipment, which must be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:

That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their
seat belt.

That infants and small children are properly secured in
appropriate child restraint systems in the rear seat.

That all doors are fully closed and locked.

That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly
adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor
vehicle accidents. You can help reduce the risk of injury or
death, however, by following the instructions in this manual.
Front seats
N00401800331
Position the driver’s seat as far back as possible while main-
taining a position that still enables you to fully apply the ped-
als, easily control the steering wheel and safely operate the
vehicle.
