In order to avoid unnecessaryand perhaps severe air bag
injuries, always sit as far back
as possible from the steeringwheel while maintaining com-
fortable control of the vehicle.
We recommend that your chest
be at least 250 mm (10 inches)
away from the steering wheel.WARNING - Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is mov-
ing. This could result in loss
of control, and an accident
causing death, serious injury,
or property damage.
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 seatbackcould result in serious or fatal
injury in a sudden stop or col-lision.
Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap
portion of the seat belt snug
and low across the hips. This
is the best position to protect
you in case of an accident.
