THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
Center Lap Belts
WARN ING!
The center seating positions have a lap belt only. To fasten
the lap belt, slide the latch plate into the buckle until you
hear a “click”. To lengthen the lap belt, tilt the latch plate
and pull. To rem ove slack, pull the loose end of the
webbing.
• A lap belt worn too loose or too high is dangerou s.
•
A belt worn too loose can allow you to slip down
and under the belt in a collision .
•
A belt that is too high will apply crash forces to
the abdomen, not to the stron ger hip bones. In
eith er case, the risk of intern al injuries is greater.
Wear a lap belt low and snug.
Wear the lap belt snu g against the hip s. Sit back and erect
in the seat, then adjust the belt as tightly as is comfort-
able.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
The seat belts for both front seating positions are
equ ipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to
rem ove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
These devices improve the perform ance of the seat belt
by assu ring that the belt is tight abou t the occupant early
in a collision. Pretensioners are designed to work for all
size occupants.
