Question: What's wrong with this?
Answer: The shoulder belt is worn under
the arm. It should be worn over the shoul-
der at all times.
WARNING
You can be severely injured if you
wear the shoulder belt under your
arm. In a crash, your body would
move too far forward, which would
increase the chance of head and neck
injury. Also, the belt would apply too
much force to the ribs, which aren't
as strong as shoulder bones. You
could also severely injure internal
organs like your liver or spleen.

Answer: The belt is twisted across the
body.
WARNING
You can be severely injured by a
twisted belt. In a crash, you wouldn't
have the full width of the belt to
spread impact forces. If a belt is
twisted, make it straight so it can
work properly, or ask your SUZUKI
dealer to fix it.
SEATS AND RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
L3U1028A
To unlatch the belt, just push the button on
the buckle. The belt should go back out of
the way.
Before you close the door, be sure the belt
is out of the way. If you slam the door on it,
you can damage both the belt and your
vehicle.
Safety Belt Use During Pregnancy
Safety belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Like all occupants, they
are more likely to be severely injured if they
don't wear safety belts.
