Kia Optima: Front Seat
WARNING - Driver’s Seat
- Adjusting the driver’s seat with the vehicle in motion could cause loss
of control and a serious accident.
- Do not allow anything to interfere with the normal position of the seatback.
Storing items against a seatback or in any other way interfering with proper
locking of a seatback could result in serious or fatal injury in a sudden stop
or collision.
- Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap portion of
the safety belt, or lap belt, snug and low across the hips. This position puts
your safety belts in the best position to protect you in case of an accident.
- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends that
the driver sit at least 10 inches (250 mm) away from the steering wheel to avoid
the risk of serious injury or death due to the deployment of the driver’s airbag.
