Seat Belt: Description and Operation
Lap/Shoulder - Front and Rear
Front and Rear Lap/Shoulder Safety Belts
WARNING: USE THE SHOULDER BELT ON THE OUTSIDE SHOULDER ONLY. NEVER WEAR THE SHOULDER BELT
UNDER THE ARM. NEVER SWING IT AROUND YOUR NECK OVER THE INSIDE SHOULDER. NEVER USE A SINGLE BELT
FOR MORE THAN ONE PERSON. MAKE SURE THE LAP PORTION OF THE BELT IS FITTED SNUGLY AND AS LOW AS
POSSIBLE AROUND THE HIPS, NOT ON THE WAIST. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS COULD INCREASE
THE CHANCE AND/OR SEVERITY OF INJURY IN A COLLISION.
After entering the vehicle, adjust the front seat to obtain the best position for driving comfort, access to controls and visibility. Then, use the
following procedure for fastening safety belts.
To fasten the belt, pull the lap/shoulder belt from the retractor so that the shoulder portion of the belt crosses your shoulder and chest. Be sure the
belt is not twisted. If it is, remove the twist. Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle for that seating position until you hear a "snap" and feel it
latch. Make sure the tongue is securely fastened to the buckle.
^
To tighten the lap portion of the belt, pull up on the shoulder belt until it fits snugly. The belt should rest as low on the hips as possible.
^
The rear safety belt system allows freedom of movement, locking only on hard braking or impacts of approximately 8 km/h (5 mph) or
more. The system cannot be made to lock by jerking on the rear safety belt.
