that you are sitting straight up and
so that you do not have to lean for-

Adjust the seat so that you can
depress the pedals fully and so that
your arms bend slightly at the
elbow when gripping the steering
wheel. (  P.119)
Lock the head restraint in place
with the center of the head restraint
closest to the top of your ears.
(  P.135)
Wear the seat belt correctly.
(  P.24) Make sure that all occupants are wear-
ing their seat belts before driving the

ate for the child until the child becomes

WARNING
■
For safe driving
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury. A
B
C
D ●
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 pos-
ture 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 accident
and the adjustment mechanism may
also be damaged. ●
Always observe the legal speed limit
when driving on public roads. ●
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 immedi-
ately.
