At what distance should the seat be positioned for the airbag to be effective?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
To ensure the **airbag** is effective and safe, it is important to maintain an appropriate distance between your chest and the steering wheel. The recommended distance is **between 10 and 25 centimeters**. This is because:
- If you are too close to the steering wheel, the airbag can hit you forcefully when it inflates, which could cause injuries. Maintaining at least **25 centimeters** of distance helps reduce the impact.
- Being too far from the steering wheel is also problematic, as it forces you to lean forward to reach the controls, which can be dangerous and cause fatigue.
Therefore, maintaining a distance of **between 10 and 25 centimeters** ensures that the airbag functions correctly and that you can drive comfortably and safely.
