FASTENING THE SAFETY
BELTS
WARNINGS
You have not fastened the safety
belt correctly if you do not hear a
distinct click. Failure to fasten the
safety belt correctly could reduce its
effectiveness and increase the risk of injury
in a crash.
Make sure that your safety belt is
securely stored away and is not
outside your vehicle when closing the
door. Failure of an occupant to be able to
use a trapped safety belt increases the risk
of serious personal injury or death.
Pull the safety belt out steadily. It may lock
if you pull it sharply or if your vehicle is on
a slope.
Insert the tongue into the buckle until you
hear a distinct click.
To release the safety belt press the red
button on the buckle. Hold the tongue and
let the safety belt retract to its stowed
position.
Using Safety Belts During
Pregnancy
WARNING
Position the safety belt correctly for
your safety and that of your unborn
child. Do not use only the lap strap
or the shoulder strap. Failure to adjust the
safety belt correctly could reduce its
effectiveness and increase the risk of injury
in a crash.
Pregnant women should always wear their
safety belt. The lap belt portion of a
combination lap and shoulder belt should
be positioned low across the hips below
the belly and worn as tight as comfort will
allow. The shoulder belt portion of a
combination lap and shoulder belt should
be positioned to cross the middle of the
shoulder and the center of the chest.
SAFETY BELT HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
Position the safety belt height
adjusters so that the belt rests
across the middle of your shoulder.
Failure to adjust the safety belt correctly
could reduce the effectiveness of the
safety belt and increase the risk of injury in
a crash.
