Toyota RAV4: Correct driving posture
1 Sit upright and well back in
the seat.
2 Adjust the position of the
seat forward or backward to
ensure the pedals can be
reached and easily
depressed to the extent
required.
3 Adjust the seatback so that
the controls are easily operable.
4 Adjust the tilt and telescopic
positions of the steering
wheel downward so the airbag
is facing your chest.
5 Lock the head restraint in
place with the center of the
head restraint closest to the
top of your ears.
6 Wear the seat belt correctly.
CAUTION
■While driving
●Do not adjust the position of the driver's seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury to the driver or passenger.
●Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident.
The adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
■Adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers
are not injured by the moving seat.
●Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid
injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
