Adjust the angle of the seat-
back so that you are sitting

that your arms bend slightly at
the elbow when gripping the
steering wheel. ( P. 156)
Lock the head restraint in place with the center of the head restraint
closest to the top of your ears. ( P. 169)
Wear the seat belt correctly. ( P. 3 2 )

ing the vehicle. ( P. 3 2 )

WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
● Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
● When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to
feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con-
tinue driving and take a break immediately.
