Adjusting the Seats
Front Seats
Adjust the driver's seat as far back as possible 
while allowing you to maintain full control of 
the vehicle. You should be able to sit upright, 
well back in the seat and be able to 
adequately press the pedals without leaning 
forward, and grip the steering wheel 
comfortably. The passenger's seat should be 
adjusted in a similar manner, so that it is as far 
back from the front airbag in the dashboard 
as possible.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 
and Transport Cana da recommend that drivers allow 
at least 10 inches (25 cm)  between the center of the 
steering wheel and the chest.
Always make seat adjustments before driving.

uuAdjusting the Seats uMaintain a Proper Sitting Position
Controls
Maintain a Proper Sitting Position
After all occupants have adjusted their seats and head restraints, and put on their 
seat belts, it is very important that they  continue to sit upright, well back in their 
seats, with their feet on the  floor, until the vehicle is safely parked and the engine is 
off.
Sitting improperly can increase the chance of injury during a crash. For example, if 
an occupant slouches, lies down, turns si deways, sits forward, leans forward or 
sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the chance of injury during a crash is greatly 
increased.
In addition, an occupant who is out of position in the front seat can be seriously or 
fatally injured in a crash by striking interior parts of the vehicle or being struck by an 
inflating front airbag.1 Maintain a Proper Sitting Position
3WARNING
Sitting improperly or  out of position can 
result in serious injury or death in a crash.
Always sit upright, well back in the seat, 
with your feet on the floor.
