The restraint systemcanreduce therisk of
vehicle occupants comingintocontactwith
parts ofthe vehicle's interiorinthe event ofan
accident. Therestraint systemcanalso reduce

componen ts:
R seat beltsystem
R air bags
The componen tsof the restraint systemwork
in conj unction witheach other. Theycanonly
deploy theirprotect ivefunct ionif,at all times,
all vehicle occupants:

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
