SAFETY RESTRAINTS

Safety restraints precautions

Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap

belt snug and low across the hips.

To prevent the risk of injury, make sure children sit where they

can be properly restrained.

Never let a passenger hold a child on his or her lap while the

vehicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child from

injury in a collision.

All occupants of the vehicle, including the driver, should always

properly wear their safety belts, even when an air bag SRS is

provided.

It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or

outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas

are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to

ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and

safety belts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a

safety belt properly.

Each seating position in your vehicle has a specific safety belt

assembly which is made up of one buckle and one tongue that

are designed to be used as a pair. 1) Use the shoulder belt on the

outside shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder belt under the arm.

2) Never swing the safety belt around your neck over the inside

shoulder. 3) Never use a single belt for more than one person.
