Before driving, make sure everyone

with an adjustable head restraint has

properly positioned the head

restraint. The restraint should be

positioned so the back of the

occupant’s head rests against the

center of the restraint. A taller

person should adjust the restraint as

high as possible.

See page for how to adjust seat-

backs.

A front passenger should also adjust

the seat-back to an upright position,

but as far from the dashboard as

possible. A passenger who sits too

close to the dashboard could be

injured if the airbag inflates.

Reclining a seat-back so that the

shoulder part of the belt no longer

rests against the occupant’s chest

reduces the protective capability of

the belt. It also increases the chance

of sliding under the belt in a crash

and being seriously injured. The

farther a seat-back is reclined, the

greater the risk of injury.

Reclining the seat-back too far

can result in serious injury or

death in a crash.

Adjust the seat-back to an

upright position and sit well

back in the seat.
