WARNING - Belt use
•
Wear the lap portion as low as
possible. Be sure that the lap
belt fits snugly around the
hips. Never wear a lap portion
of a lap/shoulder belt over
your waist; it should always
go over the stronger area of
your hips.
• Inspect your safety belts peri-
odically for excessive wear or
damage. Pull out each belt
fully and look for fraying, cuts,
burns or other damage. Pull
the safety belt out and let it
retract a number of times.
Make sure that the lap/shoul-
der belts return smoothly and
easily into the retractor.
Safety belts must be used cor-
rectly to work properly in an
accident. Each seating position
in your vehicle has a specific

For greatest effectiveness, fol-
low these guidelines in using
safety belts:
Use the shoulder portion of
the safety belt on the outside
shoulder only. Never wear the
shoulder portion under the
arm.
Never swing the safety belt
around your neck to fit over
the insideshoulder.
Never wear the shoulder por-
tion of the safety belt across
the neck or face.
•
•
Never use a single safety belt
for more than one person.
The front seatbacks should
always remain in a comfort-
able, upright position when
the vehicle is moving.
•
Check the latches to make
sure they latch and release
without interference or delay.
•
• Never close the doors on any
part of the lap or shoulder
belt.
• Any belt not in good condition
or in good working order
should be promptly replaced.
