2-point type seat belt (lap only belt)
WARNING
D Seat belts provide maximum restraint when the occupant sits
well back and upright in the seat. Do not put cushions or any
other materials between occupants and seatbacks or seat cush-
ions. If you do so, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and of the
lap belt sliding up over the abdomen will increase, and both can
result in serious internal injury or death.
D Never use a belt that is twisted or reversed. In an accident, this
can increase the risk or severity of injury.
D Keep the lap belt as low as possible on your hips. In a colli-
sion, this spreads the force of the lap belt over stronger hip
bones instead of across the weaker abdomen.
