proper position so as to easily con-
trol the steering wheel, pedals and
switches on the instrument panel.WARNING- Seat adjustment

seat forward will cause strong
pressure on the abdomen.

while adjusting the seat. Your
hand could get caught in the
seat mechanism.

the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unatteded in the vehicle.
WARNING- Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is mov-
ing. This could result in loss
of control of your vehicle.
Do not allow anything to inter- fere with the normal position
of the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any
other way interfering with
proper locking of a seatback
could result in a serious or
fatal injury in a sudden stop
or collision.
Sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel while
still maintaining comfortable
control of your vehicle. A dis-
tance of at least 10" from your
chest to the steering wheel is
recommended. Failure to do
so could result in air bag infla-
tion injuries to the driver.
