SAFETY
Lap belt:
Pull the belt tongue to the desired
length. Insert it into the buckle until
you hear a click.
Adjust the belt length. To lengthen the
belt, hold the tongue at a right angle
to the webbing and pull. To shorten,
pull the loose end of the webbing. To
unfasten, depress the button in the
buckle.
WARNING
Positioning the lap portion of the
Seat Belt too high can be danger-
ous as in a collision; this would
concentrate the impact force directly
on the abdominal area, causing
serious injury. Wear the lap portion
of the belt snugly and as low as
possible.
12
Pregnant Woman:
A pregnant woman should wear a Lap-
shoulder belt and the lap portion should
be worn as low as possible, below the
womb, throughout the pregnancy.
When a safety belt is worn properly, it
is more likely that the foetus will not
be hurt in a crash. Pregnant women
should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across
the hips as possible. Keep the belt low
so that it does not come across the
abdomen. By doing this, the strong
structure of the hips will take the force
if there is a collision.
