Seat Integrated Restraints (SIR) Identification
SuperCab vehicles may be equipped with a safety belt retractor that is integral to the front outboard seat backrest. The telltale sign to identifying a SIR
equipped seat is the integral safety belt guide tower cap located to the outboard side of the headrest (see arrow). If SIR equipped, the front outboard
seating positions will also have safety belt buckle pretensioners.
Fastening Safety Belts
WARNING: Do not introduce slack into the safety belt system because the belt locks upon impact where it is positioned. Use the shoulder
safety belt on the outside shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder safety belt under the arm. Never swing the shoulder safety belt around the
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 the waist. Failure to follow these precautions could increase the chance and severity of injury in a
collision.
Always follow the preceding safety precautions when fastening the safety belts.
