R have theseat andhead restraint adjusted
properly (Ypage 85)
As the driver, youalso have tomake surethat
the steering wheelisadjusted correctly. Observe
theinformation relatingtothe correct
driver's seatposition (Ypage 85).
You also have tomake surethatanair bag can
inflate properly ifdeploye d(Y page 43).
An airbag supplements acorrect lyworn seat
belt. Asanadditional safetydevice, theairbag
increases thelevel ofprotect ionforvehicle
occupants inthe event ofan accident. For
example, if,inthe event ofan accident, the
protect ionoffered bythe seat beltissufficient,
the airbags arenot deploye d.When anacci-
dent occurs, onlytheairbags thatincrease

are deploye d.However, seatbelts andairbags
generally donot protect againstobjectspene-
tratin gthe vehicle fromtheoutside.
