For relaxed and fatigue-free driving you

should select a sitting position that

reflects your personal requirements.

Correct sitting position combined with

safety belts and airbags enhances

occupant safety in the event of an acci-

dent. To ensure that the vehicle's safety

systems provide you with optimal

protection, we request that you direct

your careful attention to the following

section.

For additional information on trans-

porting children, refer to page 52.

Sitting correctly with airbags

Maintain a distance to the airbags.

Always hold the steering wheel by

the rim to keep any chance of injury to

hands or arms to an absolute minimum,

should the airbag be deployed. No one

and nothing is to come between the

airbags and the seat occupant.

Never use the front airbag's cover as a

storage tray or support for objects of

any kind. Never allow front passengers

to rest their feet or legs on the airbag

cover.<

For airbag locations and additional

information on airbags, refer to

page 49.

Safe with safety belts

Never allow more than one person

to wear a single safety belt. Never

allow infants or small children to ride in

a passenger's lap. Avoid twisting the

belt while routing it firmly across the

hips and shoulder, wear it as snugly

against your body as possible. Do not

allow the belt to rest against hard or

fragile objects. Do not route the belt

across your neck, or run it across sharp

edges. Be sure that the belt does not

become caught or jammed. Avoid

wearing bulky clothing and pull on the

lap belt periodically to retension it over

your shoulders. In the event of a frontal

impact, a loose lap belt could slide over

the hips, leading to abdominal injury. In

addition, the safety belt's restraint

effectiveness is reduced if the belt is

worn loosely. Expectant mothers

should always wear their safety belts,

taking care to position the lap belt

against the lower hips, where it will not

exert pressure against the abdominal

area.<

For information on using the safety

belts, refer to page 45.

When adjusting your seat, always

observe the following precautions

Never try to adjust your seat while

driving the vehicle. The seat could

respond with unexpected movement,

and the ensuing loss of vehicle control

could lead to an accident. Never ride

with the backrest reclined to an

extreme angle (especially important for

the front passenger to remember). If

you do so, there is a risk that you will

slide under the safety belt in an acci-

dent, thus reducing the protection

provided by the safety belt.<
