2022 Honda Insight Seats and Seat Belt
Introduction
With intelligently crafted seats and cutting-edge seat belt technology, the 2022 Honda Insight guarantees every travel will be secure and comfortable. Even lengthy drives are enjoyable thanks to the seats, which have been painstakingly designed to offer outstanding support and comfort for both the driver and passengers. The seats’ superior materials and ergonomic forms produce a pleasant atmosphere that enhances the interior design as a whole.
The 2022 Insight has state-of-the-art seat belt features for added safety. In order to reduce the danger of injuries after rapid braking or collisions, seat belts are made to securely fasten passengers while driving. The seat belt reminder system aggressively urges all passengers to fasten their seatbelts, improving everyone’s safety overall.
Seats and Seat Belt
Front Seats
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while allowing you to maintain full control of the vehicle. You should be able to sit upright, well back in the seat and be able to adequately press the pedals without leaning forward, and grip the steering wheel comfortably. The passenger’s seat should be adjusted in a similar manner, so that it is as far back from the front airbag in the dashboard as possible.

WARNING
- Sitting too close to a front airbag can result in serious injury or death if the front airbags inflate.
- Always sit as far back from the front airbags as possible while maintaining control of the vehicle.
- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recommends that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the steering wheel and the chest.
- Always make seat adjustments before driving.
Adjusting the Front Manual Seats
Adjusting The Front Manual Seats
Once a seat is adjusted correctly, rock it back and forth to make sure it is locked in position.
Adjusting the Seat
Backs
- Adjust the driver’s seat-back to a comfortable, upright position, leaving ample space between your chest and the airbag cover in the center of the steering wheel.
- The front seat passenger should also adjust their seat-back to a comfortable, upright position.
- 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.
WARNING
- 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.
- Do not put a cushion, or other object, between the seat-back and your back.
- Doing so may interfere with proper seat belt or airbag operation.
- If you cannot get far enough away from the steering wheel and still reach the controls, we recommend that you investigate whether some type of adaptive equipment may help. Rear
Seats
Folding Down the Rear Seats
- Remove the center shoulder belt from the guide.
- Pull the release lever in the trunk to release the lock.
- Fold the seat-back down.
Folding Down the Rear Seats
- The rear seat-backs can be folded down to accommodate bulkier items in the trunk.
- Never drive with the seat-back folded down and the trunk lid open.
Exhaust Gas Hazard
- To lock a seat-back upright, push it backwards until it locks.
- When returning the seat-back to its original position, push it firmly back. Also, make sure all rear shoulder belts are positioned in front of the seat-back, and the center shoulder belt is re-positioned in the guide.
- Make sure that the folded seat-back does not press against the front passenger seat, as this can cause the weight sensors in the front passenger seat to work improperly.
Passenger Airbag Off Indicator
- Make sure all items in the trunk or items extending through the opening into the rear seat are properly secured. Loose items can fly forward if you have to brake hard.
- The front seat(s) must be far enough forward so they do not interfere with the rear seats as they fold down.
Maintain a Proper Sitting Position
After all occupants have adjusted their seats and head restraints, and put on their seat belts, it is very important that they continue to sit upright, well back in their seats, with their feet on the floor, until the vehicle is safely parked and the power system is off.
Sitting improperly can increase the chance of injury during a crash. For example, if an occupant slouches, lies down, turns sideways, sits forward, leans forward or sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the chance of injury during a crash is greatly increased.
In addition, an occupant who is out of position in the front seat can be seriously or fatally injured in a crash by striking interior parts of the vehicle or being struck by an inflating front airbag.
WARNING
- Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious injury or death in a crash.
- Always sit upright, well back in the seat, with your feet on the floor.
