WARNING:
o For maximum restraint system protec-
tion, seat belts must always be used
whenever the car is moving.
o Seat belts are most effective when
seatbacks are in the upright position.
o Children age 12 and younger must al-
ways be properly restrained in the rear
seat. Never allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat. If a child over 13
must be seated in the front seat, he/she
must be properly belted and the seat
should be moved as far back as possible.
o Never wear the shoulder belt under your
arm or behind your back. An improperly
positioned shoulder belt can cause se-
rious injuries in a crash. The shoulder
belt should be positioned midway over
your shoulder across your collarbone.
o Avoid wearing twisted seat belts. A
twisted belt can't do its job as well. In a
collision, it could even cut into you. Be
sure the belt webbing is straight and not
twisted.
o Be careful not to damage the belt web-
bing or hardware. If the belt webbing or
hardware is damaged, replace it.

WARNING:
You should place the lap belt portion as low
as possible and snugly across your hips,
not on your waist. If the lap belt is located
too high on your waist, it may increase the
chance of injury in the event of a collision.
Both arms should not be under or over the
belt. Rather, one should be over and the
other under, as shown in the illustration.
Never wear the seat belt under the arm
nearest the door.

To Release the Seat Belt

The seat belt is released by pressing the re-
lease button in the locking buckle. When it is
released, the belt should automatically draw
back into the retractor.
If this does not happen, check the belt to be sure
it is not twisted, then try again.
